I’m a Proud Graduate of Carlos Hilado Memorial State College
Comments (0) Although I’m out of Negros and not practicing my profession as an educator, the spirit of my Alma Matter still dwells inside me every time her name is mentioned. It’s been almost 11 years since I graduated from the school where I spent 4 years of my College life but friends and schoolmates who are still working there are making me feel closer. That was 4 years of most important part of my life.
It’s been a decade since I wrote and edit articles for our school student publication (The Technopacer), as an Associate Editor.
My niece, who graduated last 2008 was the first to tell me that the first batch of Civil Engineering graduates topped 2nd and 4th on board exams. Such good news makes my day. It is a very rare case where a school that offers a program for the first time beat other established institutions. The 2009 result was even better. The second batch of Civil Engineering got 100% passing rate topping UPLB and UP Los Baños (placed 2nd and 3rd), with 16 passed out of 16 students who took the exams. What a great job!
Congratulations to all board passers. You are truly the heroes of our Alma Matter, and the next examples for later generations. Long Live CHMSC.
I remember last 1997 when I was competing for Photojournalism in Annual College Press Conference at Iloilo City, 2 fellow delegates asked me where I came from. When I told them I was from CHMSC, they didn’t even know where it was. Current students and newly graduates should not experience such thing again…. its totally different now!
