The SJC Graduate School Department celebrated their annual GRASSO Day 2025 at the Mandia Gymnasium on March 8, 2025. A celebration not only for the achievements and contributions being acknowledged, but for the passion, perseverance and determination that drive hearts towards a brighter future.
A thanksgiving mass was held in the morning and was followed by the opening program. The Vice-President for Academics, Dr. Jhoanne L. Costillas gave her remarks by welcoming and acknowledging the members of the organization. It was followed by the introduction of the new set of officers for the A.Y. 2024-2025, and the oath taking ceremony where they wholeheartedly pledged full responsibility on the role bestowed on them. It was followed by some games and activities for all the members to engage and have fun.
The afternoon event highlighted the coronation program of Mr. and Ms. GRASSO 2025. Candidates took the center stage bringing with them their unshakeable confidence and dazzling demeanors as they proudly represented their teams. The champions were decided through ballots and whoever has the highest number takes home the crown. The atmosphere became tense and cheers erupted throughout the gymnasium as the host announced who would be declared as winners. Mr. Bryan Cantillas and Ms. Ann Mhari Mancao, both from the 2nd Year โ MBA emerged triumphant.
Congratulations for a successful GRASSO Day and to the new Mr. and Ms. GRASSO 2025.
