MSU-Marawi Batch 1975 Revisit
A momentous celebration of legacy and resilience unfolded as MSU Batch 1975 marked their 50th Golden Anniversary with a nostalgic and heartfelt revisit to their beloved alma mater — Mindanao State University, Marawi Campus.
The batch paid a courtesy visit to MSU System President Atty. Paisalin P. Tago, CPA, warmly welcomed alongside First Lady Hadja Noraya Ambor Tago, CPA, the Transition Committee led by Dr. Minerva Naga-Laguindab, the Office of Alumni Relations headed by Dr. Hanimah Salic-Lao, and staff, together with Dir. Linang Macabalang and the Aga Khan Museum team, SSG officers, and select alumni officials from the MSU System and Main Campus.
The gathering took place at the Office of the President Conference Room at 9:00 AM, where warm greetings and inspiring reflections were shared before the batch revisited iconic MSU spots, including the ever-memorable Golf Course.
Alumni Regent Engr. Sammuel B. Sabenecio, a birthday celebrant, proudly recalled that Batch 1975 stood as one of the bravest—MSU students during the turbulent Martial Law years, who, despite the bombings and unrest, remained steadfast and never left MSU. All were scholars then, and now stand as a golden symbol of courage, loyalty, and academic excellence.
Truly, this golden homecoming is not just a celebration of years passed—but a celebration of enduring spirit, unity, and the unbreakable bond between alumni and their alma mater.
