Nahauna nga adlaw lang Abril
Nabun-ag ang sang ka anghel
Anghel nga ginbugay kang Ginuo
Nga kanatun tanan gapa-ambit kang ana talento.

Mabuot kag mapisan
Manunudlo nga huwaran
Ang imo pagdedikar sa pagpanudlo
Nagasugnod sa amun paglaum nga maghimakas nga tuod.

Sa imo kaadlawan
Wara kami ti iban nga ginahandum
Kun 'di ang imo ika-ayong lawas
Kalipay nga di mabayluhan kang pilak
Kag kabaskug kang kusog sa pagpanudlo kag pag-amoma sa mga istudyante.

Pagpanamyaw lang malipayon nga kaadlawan ma'am She, kabay pa nga tugruan ikaw lang mayad nga lawas kag lawid nga kabuhi sa padayon nga pagtandug kang kabuhi kang kada isara nga imo nasakupan.

Diving into the heart of media responsibility, Communication students from the University of Antique immersed themselves in the discourse on media responsibility at the Marshall McLuhan Series on Responsible Media 2024, hosted by West Visayas State University (WVSU), held at the WVSU Cultural Center, on Friday, March 8.

The highlight of the gathering was a compelling lecture delivered by Ms. Karmina Constantino, the distinguished 2022 Marshall McLuhan fellow. Students explored the intricacies of journalistic integrity in a post-truth era. Ms. Constantino's lecture, "Revising the Basics: The Role of the Journalist in Critical Public Discourse and in Seeking Accountability in the Philippines," ignited thought-provoking discussions on the evolving landscape of media ethics.

Following the lecture , reactors comprising Atty.

During the interactive session, Ms. Constantino's impassioned call to confront fear and uphold journalistic principles resonated deeply with attendees, inspiring a renewed commitment to truth-telling and accountability.

When Karmina Constantino questioned about her advice to journalists who may feel apprehensive in today's volatile media landscape, Constantino's response resonated deeply with the audience. "Why are you afraid?" she challenged."I'm not afraid because I'm fighting for my country and for my family, because I'm fighting for the future of my children," she declared .

Constantino's words struck a chord with attendees, emphasizing the importance of journalism as a noble pursuit, driven by a sense of duty to society and future generations. Her impassioned plea encouraged journalists to draw strength from their commitment to serving the greater good, despite the challenges they may encounter.

Moreover, the forum provided a platform for participants like Jaymel Jinon Eiman to share their reflections and insights. Jaymel expressed gratitude for the opportunity to attend the Marshall McLuhan Forum Series, highlighting the profound impact it had on his understanding of responsible media practices.

"Attending the Marshall McLuhan Forum Series on Responsible Media has instilled in me the importance of fact-checking in today's generation, as disinformation is rampant. It was a privilege to meet Ms. Karmina Constantino, as she emphasized our role today and in the near future in spreading truth."

The presence of Communication students from the University of Antique underscored the collaborative spirit of the event, emphasizing the collective pursuit of media literacy and ethical engagement across academic spheres. |

In the spirited realm of intellectual prowess, the University of Antique recently witnessed a clash of minds during the 2023 Innovation Week's Intellectual Property (IP) Quiz Contest at the Research Resource Development Center on Monday, November 13.

A battle among the brightest minds inside the University of Antique took place through a competition where Blessa Mae Bautista, AB PolSci 3B, marked a journey of success as she dominated the rest of the competitors under the Student Category.

Through Blessa’s lens of victory, her perseverance prevailed. The determination that Blessa Mae Bautista possesses navigated her way to take the spotlight on a stage where a battle of intelligence was held.

Prior to her success, she challenged herself to taste the bitterness of struggles. In her winning battle, the lack of time held her back from unleashing her best. "I guess the limited time to actually prepare because I only had 2 days to review, and I didn't have any materials, so I had to do research about Intellectual property rights and management all on my own. It is indeed a challenge for me, so I wouldn't say it was all luck, but it was a mix of perseverance and dedication." Blessa expressed gratitude to Sir Ysulat and Coach Ms. Hueler for their belief and support, dedicating her success to the CASimanwas community.

Despite the circumstances, her spotlight shines brighter, for her burning desire for victory did not place limits on her passion. Blessa remained undefeatable, and the desire for excellence pioneered her way to the top.

A well-deserved celebration, indeed. Not solely for gaining the title as a winner, but for the bravery of dosing 'bitterness,' and by mixing up perseverance and dedication, Blessa is finally savoring her 'sweet' success!

On the other hand, Mrs. Lorilee Serato secured the second place under the Faculty Category. |

We take this opportunity to remember the times we spent together, the laughs we had, and the love and real happiness we received from them.
