USC Law Diamond Jubilee

USC Law launches Diamond Jubilee during its Grand Alumni Homecoming

This 2007, the University of San Carlos College of Law turned seventy years young! In celebration of its Diamond Jubilee, the College held, together with the USC Law Alumni Association, Inc., a grand alumni homecoming at the Cebu Country Club on Sunday, April 28, 2007.

The grand celebration began with a Mass celebrated by a law alumnus and a silver jubilarian from Class ’82, Fr. John Jonah Orat. It was immediately followed by dinner, entertainment, and a program showcasing the Outstanding Alumni for 2007, the Dean’s Report of Atty. Alex L. Monteclar and the Message of the University President, Fr. Roderick C. Salazar, Jr., SVD.

The Dean’s Report gave insights on the new programs and activities of the College, notably the Moot Court Competition and the New Curricular Program to commence this coming academic year.

The highlight, however, was on the new building which will be constructed beginning May 2007. Fr. Salazar noted that as the College celebrates its Diamond Jubilee, we are reminded of the many blessings of the College of Law, and are grateful to the people who made all these possible.

A Carolinian placed 7th in the 2006 Bar Examinations, and the College registered a high 85% passing percentage of its 2006 graduates.

The happy affair ended with a night of singing and dancing and the raffle of the grand prize, which is a round trip ticket for two to Manila-Hong Kong- Manila courtesy of Philippine Airlines.
