Graduation is not an end, but a beginning.

We were called, on this first day of June, 2018, to witness the Baccalaureate Mass and to the 31^st Commencement Exercises of the Saint Anthony Mary Claret College, SAMCC.

Forty-nine (49) young men were turning the page of four years philosophy studies for some and more than four years for others. Our Religious Family was honored with 11 Graduates Postulants, three Religious Brothers and four Ex-pupils. It was a colorful and joy filled ceremony.

Not only that we had the biggest number of graduates students, but also we were honored with six (6) graduates “Cum Laude”, and one (1) “Magna Cum Laude”. This achievement has been possible through the joined efforts of the students and their formators.

As we congratulates our young men for this great achievement, we at the same time throw the philosophical provocation that graduation is not an end, but a beginning. It is for sure an achievement, but it is also a new door which must open them to new challenge and new commencement. Once again, Congratulations to the Batch 2018!

All our congratulations to the SAMCC, Staff and professors for sharpening in these young men the philosophical soul. They have been made, from now on, true lovers of “Sophia”. May the truth she brings enlighten their vocational journey and give them to be true missionaries and instruments of truth, wisdom and virtues.
