Sa araw na ito, Agosto 21, 1983, bumalik si Former Senator Benigno “Ninoy” Aquino Jr. sa Pilipinas matapos ang tatlong taong pagpapatapon sa ibang bansa. Batid niyang maaari siyang muling mabilanggo o harapin ang mas malalang kapalit, ngunit pinili pa rin niyang bumalik upang ipagpatuloy ang kaniyang paninindigan para sa kalayaan at demokrasya.

Ating inaalala ang kaniyang kontribusyon sa ating bansa at ang mga salitang kaniyang binanggit. Tayong mga Pilipino ay may responsibilidad sa ating kalayaan—sapagkat 𝗮𝗻𝗴 𝗸𝗮𝗹𝗮𝘆𝗮𝗮𝗻 𝗮𝘆 𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗱𝗶 𝗹𝗮𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗴 𝗽𝗿𝗶𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗲𝗵𝗶𝘆𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗴𝗮𝗽, 𝗸𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗶 𝗶𝘀𝗮𝗻𝗴 𝗽𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗴𝘂𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗴 𝗱𝗮𝗽𝗮𝘁 𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗽𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗮𝗹𝗮𝗴𝗮𝗮𝗻 𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝗽𝗮𝗴𝗹𝗮𝗯𝗮𝗻. 🎗💜

[GOVERNMENT HEAR-ON 002] 𝗖𝗢𝗟𝗟𝗘𝗚𝗘 𝗔𝗡𝗗 𝗦𝗘𝗖𝗧𝗢𝗥-𝗕𝗔𝗦𝗘𝗗 𝗖𝗢𝗡𝗦𝗨𝗟𝗧𝗔𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡 𝗦𝗖𝗛𝗘𝗗𝗨𝗟𝗘 𝗔𝗡𝗗 𝗙𝗔𝗤𝗦

The UMak Office of the Student Regent (OSR) opens its doors to every Heron through the upcoming Student Consultations—an avenue created to listen, understand, and bring the student experience closer to the heart of student governance.

Through these consultations, we hope to create a space where Herons can freely share their perspectives and engage in dialogue grounded in the realities of our student community. Your participation allows us to see beyond policies and numbers and understand the people and experiences behind them.

Check the schedule and FAQs below to learn more about the consultation dates, venues, process, and other important details.

We encourage every Heron to take part. Whether you come to raise a concern, offer a suggestion, share an experience, or simply be part of the conversation, there is a place for your voice in this space.

Because student governance begins with listening, and meaningful representation begins when we make room for every voice.

May peace in power guide our service!

Due to the continued inclement weather, the 𝗣𝗼𝗹𝘀𝗮𝘆𝗣𝗮𝗹𝗼𝗼𝘇𝗮 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲: 𝗚𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗔𝘀𝘀𝗲𝗺𝗯𝗹𝘆 will once again be postponed. The previously announced schedule will no longer push through.

We know another change to the schedule may not be what everyone hoped for, especially after getting ready to finally celebrate together. Still, the current conditions call for us to put the event on hold until it can be held in a safer and more suitable setting for our entire community.

For now, keep yourselves safe and stay updated through our official channels. 𝗔 𝗻𝗲𝘄 𝘀𝗰𝗵𝗲𝗱𝘂𝗹𝗲 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗯𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗻𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗱 𝗼𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗻𝗲𝘅𝘁 𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗵𝗮𝘀 𝗯𝗲𝗲𝗻 𝗳𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘇𝗲𝗱.
