Volunteers during the World Clean-Up Day
The Bago City College accepted the challenge and took part to the World Clean-up Day conducted at the Bago City College (BCC) campus grounds last September 17, 2016. Also present in the event was the Guidance Outreach Program Committee, various school clubs and organizations, and the Environment and Natural Resources Office, who emphasized that “clean-ups like these are important because the current state of environment is very crucial and is in need of dire solution.” The World Clean-up Day is a yearly campaign of Let’s Do It! World, a non-stock, non-profit and non-political volunteer-movement and is in relation to the Let’s Do It! Philippines National Coordination Summit 2016 and 2nd Negros Island Region (NIR) Eco-Leaders Boot camp, wherein two delegates namely James Tillaman and Alfredo Abeto III from the BCC publication office were sent to represent the college. Let’s Do It! has been conducting massive clean-ups for seven years already, and has motivated over 16 million people worldwide to join together and clean up their countries. “I’m happy that the students took the initiative to organize this kind of event. Hopefully, they will continue to do their share and continually help to clean the environment and their surroundings,” says Mrs. Anne Marie Torres, Outreach Program Coordinator.

Jessa Lestimoso, a 2nd Year BSEd Math student, topped the Honor’s List among 333 students for the 2nd Semester of AY 2015-2016. Awards were given during the Honor Society Recognition Day held at Bago City College Covered Court last August 8, 2016. Lestimoso is the lone survivor of Category A earning the Highest Distinction Award with a General Weighted Average (GWA) of 95.81. She received a varsity jacket, P1000.00 and a 100% scholarship grant for this semester. “Our greatest weakness lies in giving up the most certain way to succeed is to try just one more time,” Lestimoso quoted during her speech. She said that these words are her inspiration and she wants to impart this to her fellow students. Meanwhile, 67 students from Category B (those who got a GWA of not lower than 92 with no grade below 90) were awarded with Certificate of High Distinction and a 50% scholarship grant for enrollment fees this semester and the top 23 also got an exclusive t-shirt each. Finally, 265 in the Category C (those who got an average of not lower than 87 with no grade below 87) were given a Certificate of Distinction. Kudos to the BCC Honor Society!
