𝗟𝗢𝗢𝗞 | COE Studes Wear White to Promote Good Governance thru USSG-URSM Initiative

A wave of white swept through the University of Rizal System–Morong (URSM) as students from the College of Education (COE) joined the “𝗢𝗻 𝗪𝗲𝗱𝗻𝗲𝘀𝗱𝗮𝘆, 𝗪𝗲 𝗪𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝗪𝗵𝗶𝘁𝗲” campaign, a silent yet resolute call for integrity, transparency, and good governance, September 24.

Initiated by the University Supreme Student Government (USSG-URSM), the initiative encouraged students to express their stand against corruption through a simple, symbolic act—wearing white.

For many participants, the gesture was more than a fashion statement; it was an assertion of civic responsibility and a reflection of the youth’s growing awareness of national issues.

“As part of the council I feel proud to see each and every student of URS Morong participating in this silent but significant protest,” said Katherine Marie Briones, USSG Deputy Secretary.

According to her, the initiative showed an active movement from the youth and scholars alike, a simple protest against the blatant corruption.

A student leader from COE said the movement speaks volumes about the youth’s consciousness and heartfelt care for the nation, turning quiet actions into a powerful statement

“As student leader, nakakaproud kase we can express our feelings kahit sa ganitong paraan. It also shows that we are aware and we care for our country laban sa katiwalian. LABAN PILIPINAS,” said Dwight Frederick Sanvictores I, student leader from COE.

Additionally, the president of Light Bringers Club (LBC) expressed pride in the COE community for participating in the “On Wednesday, We Wear White” initiative, noting that wearing white was a quiet but powerful way to stand against corruption and demonstrate hope for transparent governance.

“By choosing to wear white, each of us made a quiet yet powerful stand against corruption and for transparent, accountable governance. We don't need placards or megaphones to be heard—our shared color spoke volumes about our integrity and our hope for a better Philippines,” LBC President Arjay Vitug stated.

The movement, voluntary and non-partisan, is intended to remain peaceful while sparking dialogue on the importance of ethical governance in both campus and national contexts.

USSG-URSM reaffirmed that the initiative will continue as a symbolic but impactful effort to encourage civic engagement among students.

𝗝𝗨𝗦𝗧 𝗜𝗡 | Morong LGU Suspends Classes, Shifts to Alternative Delivery Mode

The local government of Morong announced the suspension of classes in all levels, both public and private schools, on Tuesday, September 23, as a precautionary measure against the effects of Super Typhoon “Nando.”

In an advisory posted on the official page of the Municipality of Morong, authorities confirmed that face-to-face classes will be suspended due to the persistent heavy rains brought by the typhoon.

The local government assured residents that learning will continue through the implementation of the Alternative Delivery Mode (ADM), enabling students to pursue their lessons at home despite the suspension of physical classes.

The decision was made to safeguard students, teachers, and school personnel from possible risks posed by the inclement weather conditions.

The LGU also called on the public to stay alert and monitor updates from their schools and the municipal government’s official information channels.

Residents are reminded to remain vigilant, prioritize safety, and cooperate with advisories as the municipality continues to implement measures to balance education and community welfare during the typhoon.

𝗡𝗘𝗪𝗦 𝗨𝗣𝗗𝗔𝗧𝗘 | Morong suspends classes, gov’t work over red warning, family day observance

Citing both the red warning advisory due to Tropical Storm Nando and the observance of the nationwide “Kainang Pamilya Mahalaga” Day, the municipal government of Morong on Sunday announced the suspension of classes and work in government offices on Monday, September 22.

The Morong LGU said in the announcement that classes in all levels, both public and private schools, morning and afternoon sessions, will be suspended to ensure the safety of the students.

The decision follows the red warning advisory issued by the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (NDRRMC), which forecasts heavy rains and possible flooding in parts of Rizal province as Nando nears.

Meanwhile, in line with Memorandum Circular No. 96 from the Office of the President, government work in Morong will also be suspended starting 1:00 p.m. to give employees time to join Family Week activities and to support the observance of “Kainang Pamilya Mahalaga” Day.

Despite the suspension, essential services will remain operational under a skeletal workforce. These include the Municipal Social Welfare and Development Office, Treasury, Budget and Accounting, Municipal Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office, Health Office, Rural Health Unit, Local Civil Registry, and the Mayor’s Office.

The Morong LGU assured that frontline services will continue, especially those related to health, disaster response, and social assistance.

Private companies discretion on their own whether to suspend operations.

The Morong LGU reminded residents to stay alert, monitor official weather updates, and prioritize safety amid the looming storm.
