Prof. Jessa S. Buisan, the University Culture and the Arts (UCA) director, underscored that USM team’s journey toward the MASTS Cultural Festival 2022 was not an easy feat, citing that the challenge to represent and win for the University brought great pressure to the representatives.

“Mabigat ang responsibility but because of the hardwork, determination of the teams, and the support of the administration, naging posible lahat. Lahat ay lumaban at binigay ang makakaya para mabigyan ng karangalan Ang USM,” she said in an interview with MT.

She also thanked the students, coaches, and trainers for their efforts and sacrifices to gain this good finish.

“The efforts and sacrifices of the USM Culture and Arts Team made this success sweeter. Sa susunod na taon, susubukan nating makamit ang pinakamataas na pwesto para sa karangalan ng mahal nating USM,” Prof. Buisan added.
