RECAP: The Women's National Collegiate Athletic Association (WNCAA) stage was filled with energy as the Miriam College HEU Pep Squad brought their roaring cheers and infectious spirit back to the competition floor.
Their participation in the 54th WNCAA Season's Cheerleading Competition and Closing Ceremony held on March 17, 2024, at Chiang Kai Shek College, was a victory in itself, showcasing their tenacious dedication and resilient spirit.
While the final results placed them off the top podium, the Miriam College HEU Pep Squad held their heads high. The journey was filled with weeks of grueling practice, late nights perfecting formations, and overcoming challenges, had forged an even stronger bond within the team. The unwavering support from their families and peers, coupled with the sheer joy of performing together again, were their true victories.
The closing ceremony led by the Executive Director, Ms. Maria Vivian Manila, highlighted a different kind of victory - the spirit of sportsmanship. Each team acknowledged the talent and dedication of their rivals. The MC HEU Pep Squad, though not champions by title, knew they left everything they had on the floor.
Their return wasn't just about winning trophies; it was about resilience, the power of teamwork, and reigniting a beloved school tradition. The Miriam College HEU Pep Squad's message resonated loud and clear: their comeback is stronger than ever, as their cheers ignite the hearts of the entire MC community for years to come.
Go Blue! 💙 Go Gold! 💛
Go Miriam College HEU Pep Squad! Our MC Pride!

It’s been days since the boarding gates have opened to welcome the Miriam College students back on campus. As they continue to embrace the heart of MC culture and community, the Higher Education Unit’s Office of Student Affairs (OSA) and the Council of Leaders (COL) teamed up for the long-awaited HEU OrgFair 2023 that was held at the Paz Adriano Grounds last February 6, 2023.
The day started with the Students’ Assembly where the achievements of the students, faculty, staff, organizations, and departments were recognized. Afterwards, the different student organizations of the MC HEU kicked off the org fair with their booths full of fun games and activities, decorated as well with their own unique styles. Along with the organizations' booths were the concessionaires that offered delicious meals and snacks and other merchandise such as stickers and shirts, while live entertainment played and boosted the energy of the crowd.
Freshmen, sophomores, juniors, and seniors alike spent the day getting to know more about the different organizations of Miriam College, bonding with their fellow Knollers, and enjoying being on campus.

Miriam College’s partnership with Camosun College continues to flourish. Last Feb 3, 2023, the two colleges met to provide updates regarding the partnership and signed a Memorandum of Agreement.
The event was graced by the administrators and faculty of Miriam College led by the President, Amb. Laura “Lullah” Quiambao-Del Rosario and the leaders and representatives of Camosun College headed by the President, Dr. Lane Trotter.
With this partnership, both parties aspire for a global, progressive, and borderless education rooted in their institutional values for students and teachers of the Philippines and Canada. This will be made possible through the launching of exchange opportunities in both countries and other joint educational programs in different areas such as business, technology, health and human services, and arts and sciences. In addition, students will have an opportunity to receive a diploma with the names of both colleges.
The Canadian Embassy also expresses their support for the goals of this partnership, which include strengthening the connection between the two countries and providing more opportunities for learning and skills development.
Indeed, there are a lot of things to look forward to. Stay tuned for more updates regarding the partnership.
