MSU on its 55th Foundation Day

Accordingly Mindanao State University (MSU) was established on September 1, 1961 through RA 1387, as amended, was the brain child of the late Senator Domocao A. Alonto, as one of the government’s responses to the so-called “Mindanao Problem”. Today, MSU has various units in areas which cut across the Mindanao regions. From a one campus university in Marawi City. MSU has grown to a multi-campus university of eight autonomous campuses, which include: MSU-Main in Marawi City, MSU-IIT in Iligan City, MSU-TCTO in Tawi-Tawi, MSU-Naawan in Misamis Oriental, MSU-Maguindanao, MSU-General Santos, MSU-Sulu in Jolo and MSU Buug in Zamboanga Sibugay.[4]
 The Mindanao State University also known as the “melting pot of the south” celebrates its 55th foundation day with the theme “In partnership with the National Government in Pursuing Reforms towards Peace and Poverty Alleviation”. The parade started at 7:00 A.M. A long long parade because MSU is composed of 17 colleges. Festive is the best thing to describe MSU in that time. Every college prepares different yells even though we are very exposed in the sunlight but it is all worth it because we really enjoy it. The hosts welcome every college and they introduces it by naming its future career. Imagine how old Mindanao State University is? I am very proud to be part of MSU to be an Msuan, because it is not easy. You are  Msuan if you will survive not just for the safety aspects but all the aspects. Because of hotness the people are thirsty and hungry so they visited the trade bazaar in the peace plaza and buy foods and the others are taking photos.

The celebration in the morning was successful and in the afternoon there will be a discussion about Federalism in the Dimaporo Gymnasium.
