THE CALOOCAN City government honored the 24 graduates of the University of Caloocan City (UCC) College of Law during the school’s sixth commencement exercises, underscoring the city’s commitment to accessible and quality legal education.

In his message, Dale Gonzalo Malapitan congratulated the graduates and recognized the perseverance and dedication needed to complete law school.

“The journey to become lawyers is not easy. If you struggled, it was not intentional but part of preparing you for the challenges you will face once you become full-fledged lawyers,” Malapitan said.

The mayor urged the graduates to remain confident as they prepare for the Bar Examinations, encouraging them to trust in their abilities and continue striving for excellence.

“This is not the time to doubt yourselves. This is the time to take your preparations to the highest level and accept that every single one of you are excellent and enough to be called attorneys,” he added.

Malapitan also thanked the parents, professors, school officials, and the entire UCC community for supporting the graduates throughout their academic journey.

The city government expressed confidence that the new law graduates would uphold the values instilled by the institution and eventually contribute to public service and nation-building through the legal profession.
