Just as the clock strikes at 12, loud booms of fireworks displays and shrieking horns overpower the silence that previously characterized the night streets. Inside, sound-generating appliances like televisions, speakers, and karaokes are poweredโwith volumes believed to be powerful enough to shrug off the evil to possibly come. Altogether, families sing, drink, play games, and, of course, indulge in an all-time favorite: eat and sleep. Others, however, find more comfort in a quiet evening, reflecting on how the past year unfolded.
Regardless of how we celebrate and welcome the new year ahead, we do so for we believe that it marks a new beginning; a significant opportunity to start changing livesโmay they be our own or others'. So now, it is about time to bid goodbye to 2023 and say hello to 2024.
While the future holds so much uncertainty, may we keep our forehead high. In the midst of a seemingly endless pool of hurdles, let us find strength in ourselves and in others to keep moving forward while keeping with us the lessons and memories of the past year,

Student leaders play a vital role in advancing the rights and amplifying the voice of the student body. It is their responsibility to ensure that every student is heard and represented in the pursuit of upholding genuine representation for all.
Hence, as we continuously strive for an institution that is inclusive and empowering for all, let us also take a pause and listen to the plans and aspirations of our newly-elected CSC President in the hopes of ameliorating the college into the best that it can be.
Ma. Jacintha De Leon, the CSC President of the BUCSSP Student Council, shared her plans and aspirations for the CSSPnians for this academic year 2023-2024. The interview was held on August 4, 2023, at the CSSP campus.

"I will fight for you, I will speak for you, and I will stand with you!"
Those were one of the words of Ma. Bernadette Panaligan during the CSSP Harapan 2023. Her accomplishments and plans for genuine student representation were one of the reasons why she won the trust of the 923 students, which made her take the seat of the College Student Council's (CSC) Vice President.
A few months later, the elected Vice President once again faced the CSSPnians through an interview with the CaSSiPi, answering every question and sharing her plans for the college on her ๐๐๐ฅ๐ฆ๐ง ๐ญ๐ฎ๐ฌ ๐๐๐ฌ๐ฆ.

One of every Academic Year's definitive pillars is the way how the Student Council responded to each challenge posed by either the university, the student's needs, and the pressing issues surrounding the socio-academic stature of the college.
In 2022, the Bicol University (BU) move forward from the online set-up and sought to redo the face-to-face modality. As she took her oath, Ms. Alexandra Gonzaga defined thus led with her administration the steering wheel that maneuvered this transition for the student body.
Now that the dusk of her reign came, it's now time for us to listen as she sheds light on the accomplishments she may be leaving to the incoming administration, as well as the shortcomings that they would expect.
For the last time, let's hear from the CSSP-CSC Outgoing President Gonzaga her final report to the student body as she turnover her office to the next Chief Executive.

A year ago she took an oath to serve for the best interest of the student body in the College of Social Sciences and Philosophy (CSSP). As the Chief Executive of the College Student Council (CSC), Ms. Alexandra Gonzaga addressed various issues and concerns of the studentry yet still itโs the latter who has the verdict if she indeed fulfilled her duty.
After a year since she roused to the highest position in the CSSP-CSC, she will once again report for the final time her accomplishments under her term of office, and in effect seal the closure of her administration through this exit interview with the CaSSiPi.

The academic year 2022-2023 has come to an end. This means that as the opening of classes draws nearer, another set of student leaders will take over the positions, and serve the student body with tenacity and integrity.
However, before we welcome this new set of leaders, it is also a must that we hear from the outgoing officers of the council who have rendered their service in the past academic year and represented the student body at their optimum level, and thus, to the best that they can be.
On July 26, 2023, Jomari Bas, the outgoing CSC Vice President of the BUCSSP Student Council, shared his accomplishments, hardships, and his journey as a student leader. The interview took place at the CSC Office where he courageously answered all the questions prepared by the publication.
