With the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and face-to-face graduations still prohibited by the Inter-Agency Task Force (IATF) on Emerging Infectious Diseases, Far Eastern University (FEU) still pushed through with a virtual ceremony to give back to the hard work of their graduating class.
“As normally, we would be celebrating multiple graduations with your parents, family, and friends at the PICC or the Philippine International Convention Center. However, a once-in-a-century pandemic known as COVID-19 has intervened worldwide,” said FEU chairman Aurelio Montinola III.
During their virtual graduation ceremony, Arwind Santos, one of the best UAAP basketball players to suit up for the yellow and green, joined as guest speaker and talked about life, hardships, and transition from being a ‘probinsyano’ going to the concrete jungle of Manila.
While playing for FEU in the UAAP, Santos completed his degree in Sports and Recreational Management last 2011.
“Ang mensahe ko sa lahat ng mga gagraduate at magtatapos ng kolehiyo, hindi po ganun kadali ang pag-aralin tayo ng mga magulang natin kahit sabihin nating mayaman tayo, or papaano po yung mga mahihirap na talagang gumagawa po ng paraan ang mga magulang para mapagtapos lang po ang kanilang mga anak sa pagpapaaral,” sincerely said by the former PBA MVP.
The FEU virtual graduation ceremony was streamed online through their official Facebook page with the hashtag #ONEFEUBATCH2020.
