MCC College Days Opens with Pomp

The MCC Days 2014 opens with a Holy Mass officiated by the revered Archbishop Paciano B. Aniceto.

     The thought of studying in a local college does not seem to deter the students of Mabalacat City College (MCC) from celebrating the college days with pomp. On February 5 to 8, 2014, MCC celebrated its College Days with a fabulous repertoire of competitions, pageantry and a concert. 

     On February 5, 2014, the College Days, opened with a Holy Mass officiated by no less than the Most Reverend Paciano B. Aniceto, D.D., Archbishop of San Fernando, Pampanga. During the mass, Apo Ceto, congratulated Mabalacat City and its officials for the successful conversion the town into a city - Pampanga's third. In his thanksgiving message, the elated College President, Dr. Leonardo C. Canlas, praised the members of the Administration, Faculty, Staff and Student body for upholding a culture of excellence which had become a habit in the College.

   After the mass, the recognition of the September 2013 passers of the Licensure Examinations for Teachers (LET) followed. The successful alumni, now professional teachers, enjoyed their homecoming. They stayed to cheer for their former home Institutes in the subsequent competitions.

     Mrs. Amelia Z. Macapagal, the Vice President for Student Affairs and Services formally announced the opening of the College Days. Mr. John Lymon Pacia, the Supreme Student Council External Vice President, led the pledge of Sportsmanship. Mayor Marino P. Morales formally opened the Sports Competition by leading the ceremonial ball tossing.

     The highlight of the night was the hotly contested Cheerdance Competition which literally made the crowd roared in excitement. Each highly competitive Institute representatives wowed their fans with their feisty, and no-holds-barred dances and stunts. The Institute of Business Education (IBE) ruled the night with their fabulous military-inspired nei plus ultra cheerdance. The Institute of Teacher Education (ITE) came second with their unique Avatar-inspired cheerdance. The Institute of Computing Studies came third. The chair of Board of Judges, Mr. Jun Magbalot, was so happy with the competition that he pledged additional cash prizes for all the contestants.
