am to become certified public accountants and take prominent seats in large financial institutions of the country. We yearn to become professional teachers and mold future children and youth who will be the next heroes of our nation. We long to become great software analysts and animators who will excel in the world of information. All these have enabled us to direct our paths to one excellent Alma Mater which we know will guide us through the whole stream of forming ourselves to become mature, of developing our potentials and of fulfilling our big dreams.In the firm foundations of a vital Saint Columban College, we, students, have endured hardships we consider substantial in life. We have sacrificed the nights to study our lessons for the next day’s quizzes and exams. We have scanned though several books to refer our answers for an assignment. We have produced unusual shaking of the hands and unexpected globules of sweat on the forehead during the delivery of reports in front of our classmates. In our regular classes, we deal with various accounts to create correct financial statements, we show our finest performance in presenting the best teaching demonstration and we analyze complex codes to develop a running computer program, free from bugs. On Wednesdays, we organize and participate in activities as part of our requirements in the school. We have all strived as students and we know that behind these endeavors, we have taken the fruits of our labor which no one could ever earn but through our own efforts also. We have learned the knowledge we will be using in our professions and the importance of time management which will help us set activities and handle surprises. We have obtained the values of self-confidence to face people in an approachable and appropriate manner. We have grasped patience that motivates us to still pursue despite hard obstacles. We have gained the opportunity of knowing others, winning acquaintances and growing as a member of SCC family. We have reaped the benefits of being an SCCian.
Saint Columban College has truly reared productive lives of opportunities and challenges to students. She has cultivated mature and responsible individuals ready to battle with competence in the real world. She has built a culture of excellence where we can proudly proclaim that we are SCCians.
