The impenetrable excellence of the Integrated Performing Arts Guild (IPAG) of the Mindanao State University- Iligan Institute of Technology (MSU-IIT) showed no fear against the rain as it dazzled its first official launching of their 'IPAG in the Frames: An Exhibit' at the old SET building, today, August 27.

The week-long exhibit, which will run starting today until Friday, August 30, features a series of theatrical performances showcasing Mindanao's cultural emblem as enlivened through IPAG's renowned world-class artistic talents.

University Chancellor Alizedney Ditucalan kicked off the exhibit by acknowledging the creative committee behind IPAG who've played a significant role in maintaining its historic legacy as heralds of the culture and arts.

"This is truly inspiring, witnessing IPAG performing again at the university," the chancellor said with anticipation.

After the message, the grandeur of white elements and intricate moves stole the evening view as IPAG's performance propelled despite the continuous rain, marking the exhibit's launching with a downpour of sophistication and artistic diversity.

Jan Pagarigan, the artist and director behind the IPAG in the Frames concept, stressed that the exhibit serves to honor the people who have made IPAG achieve its remarkable standing, giving pride in its successful productions not just in the country but across the world.

Three days are left until the exhibit concludes. Witness and be mesmerized. You'll never want to miss the IPAG experience, IITians!

Today, we honor the men and women who fought to afford us the freedom that we have. With Aquino's cradle, Bonifacio's defiance, and Rizal's pen, we wake to the birds chirping and sleep to crickets.

As we commemorate National Heroes Day, may we be reminded of the cost of this independence and the responsibility that comes with it. Our rich history fought by those who came before us may have brought us today's liberties, but it will be our actions and decisions that will shape our future.

So may we collectively work towards honoring our history, preserving our heritage, and building a future of true peace and unity.

Recently, President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. signed Proclamation No. 665, moving the commemoration of Ninoy Aquino Day from August 21 to August 23, 2024.

The administration's motive behind the proclamation was to enforce what is considered beneficial 'holiday economics,' intending to promote the tourism industry in the country. And of course, who would hate a long weekend? Although the proclamation has reassured the historical standing of today and will be given crucial emphasis, the economic narrative serves as a diversionary plot to downplay the celebration of Ninoy Aquino's legacy.

The agenda is dreadful and unconstitutional. Albay Rep. Edcel Lagman lambasted Marcos for proclaiming without revisiting Republic Act 9492 or “An Act Rationalizing the Celebration of National Holidays,” hereby stating that the intent of moving holidays needs to be proclaimed by the president six months before the specific date of the official holiday.

The day when Ninoy Aquino was assassinated was one of the factors that sparked the historical revolution that led the Philippines to its political survival and freedom. Marcos should have ruminated that the very existence of this fact is forever etched in the course of our history.

Ninoy Aquino’s statement that we are worth dying for may be an exaggeration, but it’s his will to give Filipinos the highest benefit before anything else. The commemoration of his assassination may be moved, but his legacy will remain unmoved. And no amount of holiday economics could erase this history, for the Filipinos always remember.

In a bid to foster educational developments in the country, the Department of Professional Education (DPRE) of the College of Education (CED) secured a prestigious 5-year grant for the Reading Initiatives with Stakeholders Engagement (RISE) project from the Flemish government in Belgium after acing the competitive selection among various international proposals.

According to Assoc. Prof. Shelanee Ruales, RISE's Project Leader, her team is more than proud that their efforts bear fruition for gaining an international support despite the intense selection procedure.

"We had to compete with project proposals from not just from Southeast Asia but also from African and South American countries whose projects we do not have any idea of. We are glad that the selection committee saw the value of this project and how it may impact the Philippines," Ruales stated about their proposal journey.

From 217 proposals in stage 1 down to final 40, the project's selection was in accordance with the VLIR's TEAM Projects aiming to strengthen the educational demographic and underscoring the government's call for an inclusive system.

Prof. Ruales also stressed that the project not only entails collaborative approaches for teachers but includes a variety of interconnected initiatives in order to address the learning poverty rampant in the country.

"This project goes beyond teacher training. It focuses on the creation of a reading culture through multi-stakeholder partnerships, material creation, library facilities improvement, parental engagement, and a reading ambassador community," Ruales added.

Moreover, she emphasized the project's role of diversifying instructional materials to enable multiculturalism and empower Filipino students in the globalized world.

The said project was reported as an another advancement of the university, hence the administration is determined to unlock more potential programs that heavily puts emphasis to the sustainable development goals.

"We are grateful to the Flemish government of Belgium for this grant and hope that RISE will succeed and impact education," Ruales concluded.

Paving its way as a powerhouse of excellence, the Mindanao State University - Iligan Institute of Technology (MSU-IIT) inaugurated its second Bantogen Honors Convocation to honor distinguished students in their academic and extracurricular accomplishments at the University Mini Theatre last August 13, Wednesday.

University Chancellor Alizedney Ditucalan kicked off the awarding ceremony with a welcoming message, citing the Bantogen Honors Society as the most prestigious organization ever established in the campus.

For Shakirah Naylah Musor, one of the CED awardees, she shared the feeling of being part of the Bantogen awardees by stating that the experience was 'humbling.'

Moreover, she also encouraged fellow CED students to raise the bar high and go aim for the Bantogen feat.

"Know your why's and be persistent about it, just do your best, and it will be paid off."
