Standingrmandbattling all throughout the
week long celebration, the College of Busi-
ness Economics and Management continued
its winning streak by having the title for the
third consecutive time with 15, 525 points during the
44th Founding Anniversary last September 17 to 21.
It was a great pressure to us to have the title for
the third consecutive time and we considered this as
a responsibility kasi kung hindi kami magchampion

Lanuza, College Student Council President of CBEM,
when asked regarding his perspective of CBEMs two
years of successive win on the said event.
Togetherwiththeirthirdwin,theissueofnan-
cial instability had continuously been coherent with the
said college wherein Lanuza stated that, Lahat naman
ng CSC nagkulang talaga sa funds dahil sa Intramurals
perokinayanamannamin.
Lanuza pointed out that the cooperation of not
only the council but also their delegates and the admin-
istration became their key in getting this years champi-
onship once more.
With 15, 525 points, CBEM bagged their third
winreceivingaP10,000ascashprize.TheCollegeof
Education ranked second with 14,020 points, followed
by the Polangui Campus with 11,665 points and Col-
lege of Arts and Letters with 11,116 points.
We can never predict the future, I guess that we
can do is to just do our best and the rewards will just fol-
low. Being the champion comes with action and faith of
course. If God wants us to be the champion every year
then be it. I know naman that CBEMians are talented
and smart enough and they are the main reason why we
gotthechampionship.Lanuzaadded.
Same Rank
Like its placement last year, the College of Edu-
cation again ranked as the 1st runner up in the BU Week
despite its full efforts to be the seasons champion.
Arriane Bernardino, CSC President of CE stated,

Mark Harris Lim, USC Chairperson, claried
one of the students concerns regarding on the delay of
events.
Almost hindi na rin natin maiiwasan if there are
circumstances na may mga certain lapses na nag-cause
ng delay sa time wala na rin tayong magagawa if ang
mga dahilan nito ay nature at environment na din tala-
ga. Commonly yun na din talaga ang isa sa mga reason

VOLUME XLV
BICOL UNIVERSITY
CBEM Three-peat as BU Week
Champ
OVERRATEDLiving up to the name, Iskolars ng Bayan, is hard to
live by but BUeos condently claim the title to be. Absurd,
yet true.
The 44th Founding Anniversary of Bicol Universitystheme ideals are pictured as the four pillars of the institu -
tion: Scholarship, Leadership, Service and Character. These
which are interestingly repeated throughout the celebration
bring a subliminal thought of passivity, of students inability
to live up to the universitys name.
To be iskolars are to be examples of righteousness,
to be model students diligently and actively doing their work
and performing their duty as a citizen of the academe and
the society. Being a BUeo therefore is not just a ti tle to hold
but a name to exist.
It is the overrated thought that Bicol University stu-
dents disengaged themselves to the freedom of participa-
tion to every activity the academe is pursuing. The clich of
all clichs but BUeos really fail to execute the ideals of uni-
versity by action. More so, the so called sin of omission tothe universitys call for a unied and a strong foundation and
harmonious relationship among its treated family is gravely
ignored.
The inability to discern the universitys goal to move
and be as one is a manifestation of BUeos immaturity. The
issues on fund insufciency and the habit of Filipino time
are the problems since time immemorial yet it continuously
haunts the student councils who organize the events and
the students who are supposedly to support it.
It is true, however, that the university has established
its name and acclamation as an institution of excellence and
how Bicol University had live by its name producing profes-
sionals and graduates notching board and licensure exami-
nations.
Indeed, it is undeniable how the institution is giving all
its effort to improve the education quality and its infrastruc -
ture. The students, on the other hand, have their contribu-
tions also by ringing the Alma Mater glory, honor and pride.
Yet, no matter how many accomplishments there are, it will
always go behind on students inability to live by the univer-
sitys pursuit of excellence if they, who are the foundation of
the institution, will continuously neglect to be charactered
scholarly.
If you claim to be Iskolars ng Bayan and if you are a
true blood BUeo, then prove it and stop this hypocrisy and
self-deluding assertions of how excellent you ought to be.
