Virtus Newsletter: A Calling for the Thinkers

Hello πŸ‘‹

We welcome a new school year and all the less welcome – but necessary – digests, readings, recitations, and stress – that comes with it. This hopeful beginning is celebrated every year with the acquaintance party, where old faces are made fresh, and new faces are shown off before they shortly carry with them the look of a law student who has endured the study of law.


A Calling for the Thinkers

In the Black and White Gala, this year's acquaintance party, students were reminded by Atty. Eliseo P. Vencer II of the weight bore by those who choose the path of the law.

"Audentis fortuna iuvat – fortune favors the bold" opens the piece by Nadine A. Calmerin on the bold who brave this arduous adventure.

Mindful of mental health

Sharla Baybay reminds us for this year's celebration of mental health day to be mindful of our own and other's mental health. "If you know one, talk to them, and find out how you can help or how you can help them seek help. If you are one, do not be afraid to talk and seek help."

"It’s not bad to be kind to yourself. It’s not bad to find joys despite the challenges. It’s not bad to not take yourself seriously even just for a moment." Start with a Smile
