Union Christian College marks the beginning of the academic year 2026–2027 through an opening program held on July 27, 2026, at the UCC Covered Court. Students from various departments, including the School of Education, Arts, and Sciences, participated in the event with excitement and anticipation for the new journey they are about to embark on in their academic life.

The program began with a call to worship, which was followed by an opening prayer led by Ms. Rowena Galango to officially start the program. Messages from multiple council leaders were also shared as they encouraged students with words of wisdom that served as a guide throughout their academic endeavors.

The LAYAG SEAS SBO also participated in the lighting of candles along with the SHes and SBS SBO. They were then prayed over so that the student leaders can continue to serve with integrity and responsibility. The worship liturgy ended with a closing prayer and benediction by Rev. Dr. Cesar C. Cadam‑us.

The second part of the program commenced with the college ceremony led by the Supreme Student Council. Together, the students sang the Philippine National Anthem and the Bagong Pilipinas Hymn. The program continued with the recitation of the Panunumpa ng Watawat ng Pilipinas and the UCC Song. The UCC staff and faculty were also introduced in front of all the students, and announcements were made before the program officially ended with the singing of the UCC Hymn.

The opening ceremony concluded by welcoming the students into a new academic year with minds filled with wisdom and their hearts full of determination.

In celebration of Environment Month, the Union Christian College – School of Education, Arts, and Sciences (SEAS) once again translated its commitment to environmental stewardship into meaningful action through a native tree-planting initiative under its flagship eco-sustainability program, EARTH I AM.

The activity became a living testament to the school's enduring belief that sustainability begins with deliberate choices and collective responsibility. SEAS faculty members gathered to plant carefully selected native and food-bearing trees within the SEAS grounds, reinforcing the department's vision of nurturing an academic community that values ecological integrity, food security, and environmental resilience. At the heart of the initiative was the planting of moringa (malunggay), kamias (bilimbi), and katuray (Sesbania grandiflora)—three remarkable species chosen not only for their adaptability to the local environment but also for their immense nutritional, ecological, and social value.

They talked about the strengths and weaknesses of the program and explained the lessons and personal growth they gained through community service.

The participants also discussed proper ways of conducting evaluations for outreach programs. A critical evaluation of the instructional materials used in Sta. Monica Elementary School was also presented to identify areas for improvement and to help make future learning activities more effective.

The program encouraged students and teachers to value research, service, and continuous learning in helping communities.

Students of the 𝐒𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐥 𝐨𝐟 𝐄𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧, 𝐀𝐫𝐭𝐬, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐒𝐜𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐬 (SEAS) at 𝖀𝖓𝖎𝖔𝖓 𝕮𝖍𝖗𝖎𝖘𝖙𝖎𝖆𝖓 𝕮𝖔𝖑𝖑𝖊𝖌𝖊 took part in the seminar-workshop “Think, Write, Speak: Unlocking the Power of Research and Communication” held on May 5–6, 2026, at Otterbein Guild Hall.

The activity was conducted under SEAS’s REACH (Remediation Enrichment Activity through Collaboration for Higher Performance) Program in partnership with the SPEAK Program, both aimed at strengthening students’ research competence and public speaking skills.

The program opened with an invocation, followed by welcome remarks from Department Dean Dr. Cherrel G. Ignacio. REACH Focal Person Sir Marc Yvan P. Martinez delivered the statement of purpose.

The initial sessions focused on research title development, where Ma’am Hazel Anne B. Sobremonte discussed the fundamentals of crafting effective research titles and, with her guidance, assisted participants in formulating their own. Students later refined their outputs and prepared their research proposals for presentation.

The following day featured a public speaking session led by Ma’am Clarisse Madayag, emphasizing confidence-building through key preparation principles: Physically Ready (PR), Nurtured Mind (NM), and Controlled Emotions (CE), which together develop confidence. She further stressed that confidence, combined with consistent practice, leads to a successful presentation. In the afternoon, students utilized cue cards as they presented their research proposals.

Participants from different year levels shared studies, including topics on early childhood education and social media language use, with faculty members providing feedback for improvement. Third-year students presented their research findings in preparation for their final defense, during which panelists offered suggestions to enhance their presentations.

The seminar concluded with the awarding of certificates. Due to prior commitments, Dr. Ignacio was unable to deliver the closing remarks, which were instead given by Extension Focal Person Ma’am Kim A. Martinez.

In celebration of Earth Day 2026, Union Christian College (UCC) reaffirmed its commitment to environmental stewardship through a meaningful integration of the theme “Our Power, Our Planet” into its academic and community life. Anchored in the SEAS Koinonia and Department Colloquium, the celebration became a platform for reflection, collaboration, and action.

Faculty members incorporated Earth Day discussions into relevant courses, enabling students to critically engage with environmental issues such as climate change, sustainability, and ecological responsibility. Through interdisciplinary dialogue, learners were encouraged to connect theory with practice and recognize their role as stewards of creation.

The SEAS Koinonia fostered a spirit of shared responsibility, highlighting how collective action can bring about meaningful change. Meanwhile, the Department Colloquium served as a venue for presenting student insights, research, and innovative ideas addressing current environmental challenges.

As part of the advocacy campaign, students actively shared their environmental commitments, creative outputs, and calls to action through the college’s official page. These posts aimed to raise awareness, inspire the wider community, and challenge individuals to adopt sustainable practices in their daily lives.

Through these initiatives, UCC not only celebrated Earth Day but also strengthened its mission of forming environmentally conscious and socially responsible individuals—empowered to care for the planet and contribute to a more sustainable future.
