Mindanao State University celebrates Golden Jubilee

Mindanao State University celebrates Golden Jubilee on September 1, 2011. For 50 years, the academic institution has consistently provided quality education to the people of MINSUPALA Region from all walks of life. Our gratitude goes to Dr. Antonio Isidro as the founder and president of this glorious institution. 

                       

To date, the main campus has more than 40,000 alumni across the globe. They are the living legends of MSU’s great contribution to their well-being. Anywhere in the world, alumni proudly brings TATAK MSUan, a title so precious with unequalled set of experiences. As said, “One can survive the tests of time anywhere if he is an MSUan.” That is to say, wherever an MSUan goes, there is that passion to overcome life’s challenges considering a 4-year drudgery in the mountains of Marawi City. 

Taga MSU-Main Campus jud ka kung?... is a group created in facebook networking site where thousands of the alumni share common experiences, frustrations, struggles, joys and successes. These reflect a common ground of giving thanks to their Alma Mater for without her, one can hardly imagine what he has become. All the hardships and deprivations are worth it. 

This coming September 1, most if not all will converge in the premises of MSU-Marawi Campus, to say hi and hello to their batchmates, former professors, crushes and other acquaintances. 

WELCOME HOME TO WHERE IT ALL STARTED...  

The MSU Administrators, Faculty, Staff and Students gladly welcome you all to the 50th MSU Founding Anniversary!!!

Feel the atmosphere of festivity as you will be welcomed by a parade of tarpaulins with greetings for MSU: Happy Golden Jubilee !!!

Be amazed once again with the colorful decorations of various offices and colleges ready to accommodate you.

It's inspiring to note that the alumni in various places have their unique plans of going to Marawi. These are a bit funny but signify one thing: Everyone is excited to be home once again.

If it's your dream of sailing across the lake, join the voyagers on the 30th of August and explore the magnificent LANAO LAKE. It's serene waters remind us of its contribution to the community and even to Iligan City because it is through Lake Lanao that Iligan has the majestic Maria Cristina Falls - the source of hydroelectric power in Mindanao. 

MADANG: tag piso nalang due to abundant supply serves as a "viand" for some students. Everyone gets excited during its peak season because one can have it at a very affordable price.

The MSU Golf Course: an avenue for relaxation, studying lessons, rehearsals and "dating" hmmmmm... How I miss this place that whenever I get a chance to be in the campus, I always find time to visit and meditate. 

PATER!!! One of the specialty (ies) of Marawi City. A brisk walk in the morning deserves a reward at the Pateran sa Forestry... hmmmm... nam nam... 

And of course, the magical SAYOTEEEEE......... For sure, everyone has eaten viands made from sayote... Ginisa, with egg, tinola and a lot more are dishes an MSUan enjoys... Naa lang usahay sa kilid sa dorm, sa cottage og sa kabukiran... Kuha na og lutoa... Solved na ang pamahaw, paniudto og panihapon... hahaha

These are just  some of the things that everyone misses. 

Let us all celebrate this Golden Jubilee with gratitude, humility and commitment to spread the good news. Mindanao State University is also a living proof that Mindanao is a peaceful place. With thousands of graduates every year, this must give everyone the idea that Mindanao like any other place in the country, is a good place to visit and even reside. To all alumni, you and I are diplomats and ambassadors of peace to our fellowmen and to all the people in the world. We have lived a life in the academe that more than proves the essence of acculturation. 

(Ba't naging seryoso... hehehe)

IKAW, anong namiss mo sa MSU at gusto mong maranasan ulit??? Punta na tayo sa MSU and let's celebrate :-) God bless everyone... :-) Thank you, thank you :-)
