Kalibo, Aklan - The Supreme Student Council (SSC) of the Northwestern Visayan Colleges(NVC) hosted an event in cooperation with the Office of the Student Affairs (OSA) about the Student Crime Prevention Seminar, on December 2, 2025 at the NVC CSQ Gymnasium.

The seminar gathered student leaders from various college departments who shared a common goal of promoting a safer, more secure campus environment for the entire NVC community. With the rise of safety concerns across schools nationwide, the event served as an important reminder of the role young leaders play in promoting awareness, and responsible action.

Plt. Julie Ruiz, PRC, served as the keynote speaker and discussed several crime-related incidents that occurred within school premises in recent years. She emphasized the importance of early reporting, proactive prevention, and collective responsibility among students. One of the highlights of her talk was the discussion on the “Bawal Bastos Law” or the Safe Spaces Act (RA 11313), which protects individuals from gender-based harassment in public spaces, schools, and workplaces. She urged students not to hesitate in approaching police officers or authorities whenever they witness or experience any form of crime or harassment.

"Everyone's safety relies on us", Marian Ligayu, the Head of the General Administrative Facilities, reminded participants about the importance of preparedness. She emphasized that the institution had successfully conducted multiple safety and emergency drills in recent months, reinforcing the readiness of the school in case of unforeseen events. She also elaborated on the rules, regulations, and safety measures being implemented to ensure that every individual within the campus understands their role in maintaining order and security.

The seminar concluded with a powerful reminder that crime can happen at any moment, often when least expected. With this, student leaders were encouraged to apply what they learned by staying alert, promoting safety awareness, and becoming active partners in safeguarding the NVC community.

“Narinig Mo Na Ba?” Jill Patricia Gretel Ciprino BSCS IV A ‎Maaga pa lang ay rinig na ang usap-usapang may namatay raw na isang 2nd year student sa school. Kaya pala may mga pulis sa labas at iilang bulaklak. Isa pa, hindi rin maganda ang hangin pagka-pasok pa lang ng gate. Maingay pero tahimik. Papasok na ako sa room nang may marinig akong sigaw ng babae galing sa isang room. ‎ ‎“Hindi nga nagpakamatay si Mitch! Tumawag nga siya sa'kin! Bakit hindi niyo maintindihan, ha!?” sigaw nito. Gusto ko rin sanang makita ang nangyayari sa loob ng room kaso sa dami ng estudyanteng nakikiusisa rin sa labas ay hindi na ako nag-abala pa. ‎ ‎Nag ring ang bell hudyat na magsisimula na ang klase. Ilang minuto pa ang lumilipas ngunit walang gurong pumasok sa klase. Sobrang lamig ng paligid. Lahat sila ay parehong iniisip ang nangyaring trahedya sa estudyanteng 'yon. ‎ ‎Lumapit naman sa akin ang kaibigan kong si Mae. Nabalitaan mo na ba? Patay na raw si Mitch!” sambit nito. Tumango a...

  A line that irresistibly hunts me anywhere and everywhere, para akong minumulto nito sa beses na nakikita o naririnig ko ‘yung linyang ‘to. Tama naman sila eh, hindi ka dapat mahulog sa dapat kaibigan lang. It’s a trap you can’t avoid. Para akong sa-sakalin sa layo at lapit namin sa isa’t isa. Before I even enter this friendship we have, I knew the moment I fell for her had already ruined us. Kinaibigan ko lang naman siya kasi alam kong that’s the closest thing I’ll ever get to her. Pero hindi ko naman pinagsisihan na kinaibigan ko siya, she’s a gift I never knew I could ask the universe for. The first time I cross upon her, nahulog na loob ko sakaniya. This was years ago bago pa man kami maging “friends” umamin na ako sakaniya nun, and that was a universal experience for me considering that it was my first time confessing. Unfortunately, things didn’t work for us. We were classmates kaya it was difficult for me to handle the circumstance we had. Gladly, we had this...

isinulat ng “isang ordinaryong nilalang, na paborito ang kulay rosas.” Ayon sa Worldometer (2026), humigit kumulang walong bilyon ang tao sa mundo. Ngunit wala ako... wala ni isang kaluluwang masasabing akin mismo. Sa mundong puno ng sigalot at ingay, hinahanap pa rin kita sa pagitan ng takot at lumbay. Ikaw, mahal kong darating... San ka na ba? Sa anong lugar, probinsya? Sa anong lungsod ka ba humihinga? Sa anong pagkakataon kita unang mahahaplos at makikilala? At kung iibigin kita, Hindi tulad ng gobyernong mapanlinlang. Hindi kita gagamitin sa pang sariling kapakinabangan. Hindi kita itatali sa pangakong walang saysay, sapagkat ang pag-ibig ay hindi diktadurya na kayang kumitil ng buhay. At kung iibigin man kita, Iibigin kita nang may demokrasya. May konstitusyon ang ating galaw at salita. Batas nito ay respeto, at pag-unawa sa bawat isa. May karapatan kang magsalita, may kalayaang umalis, o manatili sa piling ko, sinta. At kung iibigin man kita, Tandaan na, hindi ito pr...
