Around 120 newly-elected student leaders were convened for this year’s Leadership Camp (LC), Kathang Isko: Mga Lider ng Bagong Siglo, held on September 16 and 17, 2016 at the UPIS 3-6 Building.

Organized by the Pamunuan ng Kamag-aral 3-10, the camp aimed to promote creativity and broaden the participants’ knowledge project planning and execution. Furthermore, it intended to encourage the students to take up an advocacy upholding UPIS’ core values: love, truth, justice, peace, and freedom.

One of the major projects in this camp is Likharada. In this activity, groups of student leaders developed an advocacy and presented them through creative book covers. Groups also performed skits that showed the characteristics of UPIS student leaders based on the core values.
