📢 MAGANDANG ARAW, ICS FAMILY! 💻💙

Isang makabuluhang araw para sa ating lahat bilang bahagi ng Institute of Computing Studies (ICS).

Sa nalalapit na ICS-SBO Election, nais naming ipakilala sa buong ICS Community ang mga estudyanteng naglakas-loob na tumakbo at mag-alay ng kanilang panahon, kakayahan, at serbisyo para sa kapwa mag-aaral.

Sila ang TECHLEAD — isang partidong binuo na may paniniwalang ang teknolohiya, pamumuno, pagkakaisa, at serbisyo ay maaaring magsilbing daan tungo sa isang mas aktibo, makabuluhan, at progresibong student community.

Ang TECHLEAD ay hindi lamang tungkol sa pagkakaroon ng posisyon. Ito ay tungkol sa pagiging handang makinig, kumilos, makipagtulungan, at magsilbi. Naniniwala kami na ang isang tunay na lider ay hindi lamang nakikita sa harap ng mga tao, kundi higit na nasusukat sa kanyang kakayahang maging responsable, makatarungan, mapagkumbaba, at handang unahin ang kapakanan ng nakararami.

✨ KILALANIN ANG TECHLEAD TEAM ✨

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

💻 BAKIT TECHLEAD?

Ang TECHLEAD ay kumakatawan sa aming paniniwala na ang pagiging bahagi ng Computing Studies ay hindi lamang tungkol sa coding, programming, systems, technology, at academics.

Ito rin ay tungkol sa LEADERSHIP.

Ang teknolohiya ay patuloy na nagbabago sa mundo, ngunit ang pagbabago ay nangangailangan pa rin ng mga taong may integridad, malasakit, pananagutan, at tapang na manguna.

Kaya nais naming bumuo ng isang student government na:

🔹 TECHNOLOGY-DRIVEN – Gumagamit ng teknolohiya upang mapabuti ang komunikasyon, serbisyo, at mga programa ng student organization.

🔹 STUDENT-CENTERED – Inuuna ang boses, pangangailangan, welfare, at kapakanan ng mga estudyante.

🔹 TRANSPARENT – Naninindigan para sa malinaw at responsableng paggamit ng resources at sa bukas na komunikasyon.

🔹 INCLUSIVE – Naniniwala na bawat estudyante ay may boses, ideya, at kakayahang makibahagi.

🔹 INNOVATIVE – Hinihikayat ang mga bagong ideya at solusyon sa mga hamon na kinakaharap ng ICS Community.

🔹 COLLABORATIVE – Naniniwala na mas maraming bagay ang makakamit kapag sama-samang kumikilos.

🔹 SERVICE-ORIENTED – Ang leadership ay hindi privilege lamang; ito ay isang responsibilidad na kailangang gampanan nang may puso at malasakit.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

🌟 HINDI LANG POSISYON, KUNDI SERBISYO.

Ang bawat isa sa aming mga kandidato ay may kanya-kanyang personalidad, kakayahan, karanasan, at pananaw. Ngunit mayroon kaming iisang layunin — ang maging bahagi ng isang ICS-SBO na mas aktibo, mas bukas, mas organisado, mas makabago, at higit na nakatuon sa kapakanan ng mga estudyante.

Hindi namin ipinapangako na magiging perpekto ang lahat.

Ngunit ipinapangako namin ang aming kahandaang makinig, matuto, makipagtulungan, tumanggap ng puna, at kumilos para sa mga bagay na mahalaga sa ating komunidad.

Dahil ang tunay na leadership ay hindi nasusukat sa dami ng palakpak, likes, o boto.

Nasusukat ito sa serbisyong naibibigay, sa tiwalang napapanatili, at sa pagbabagong naiiwan pagkatapos ng termino.

🤝 TECHLEAD believes that leadership is not about being above others — it is about standing with others.

Sa bawat BSIT, BSIS, BSCS, ACT, at sa bawat estudyante ng ICS, nais naming iparating:

May boses ka.
May halaga ang iyong opinyon.
May puwang ang iyong ideya.
At may lugar ka sa pagbabagong nais nating makamit.

Kaya sa darating na halalan, kilalanin ang mga kandidato, pakinggan ang kanilang mga plataporma, suriin ang kanilang mga kakayahan, at higit sa lahat, bumoto nang naaayon sa kung sino ang tunay ninyong pinagkakatiwalaan.

Ang halalan ay hindi lamang pagpili ng mga taong uupo sa posisyon.

Ito ay pagpili ng mga taong bibigyan natin ng pagkakataong magsilbi, manguna, at maging boses ng ICS Community.

💻⚡ TECHLEAD
Technology. Leadership. Excellence. Accountability. Development.

Para sa isang ICS na mas nagkakaisa.
Para sa isang ICS na mas makabago.
Para sa isang ICS na mas naririnig ang bawat boses.
Para sa isang ICS na sama-samang umuunlad.

TECHLEAD — LEADING WITH TECHNOLOGY, SERVING WITH PURPOSE. 💻🤝

Maraming salamat po, ICS Family!
Nawa’y maging makabuluhan, patas, at mapayapa ang ating darating na halalan.

Mabuhay ang ICS!
Mabuhay ang bawat ICS Student!
At mabuhay ang isang student leadership na tunay na para sa estudyante! 💙💻.
