Dear CBA student,

I present to you this compendium of achievements that we have accomplished in the

past seven months in the aim to be fully accountable and transparent to the endeavors of the Office of the College Representative to the USC. It is with pride that I state

our accomplishments being that these advocacies are not only proofs of how much

we as future business leaders are already making a mark in society, but also proofs of our stronger relations among the institutions that uphold students rights and welfare

in our stay in UP, the local council BAC and the University Student Council.

It is our firm belief that this unity of ideas would give us a better understanding of the general context of society we are living today. This knowledge will pave the way

for us to contribute to our nation’s development and thus, starting now, enabling us to

become building blocks in the construction of a more just and humane society.

I hope that with this report, we understand that much has to be done and with your

help, we can all achieve what we ought to do, to serve the people as scholars for the nation. MABUHAY ANG CBA! MABUHAY ANG MGA ISKOLAR NG

BAYAN!
