On 16 June 2026, at the University Gymnasium, the Bukidnon State University-College of Nursing (BukSU-CON) Level 4 students, proudly known as Batch Akasi, took the stage once again as they celebrated the ๐๐๐ญ๐ก ๐๐ซ๐จ๐๐๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ข๐จ๐ง๐๐ฅ ๐๐ข๐ง๐ง๐ข๐ง๐ ๐๐ง๐ ๐๐ข๐ง๐ ๐๐จ๐ฉ๐ฉ๐ข๐ง๐ ๐๐๐ซ๐๐ฆ๐จ๐ง๐ฒ with the theme, โ๐พ๐๐ง๐ง๐ฎ๐๐ฃ๐ ๐ฉ๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐ฉ ๐ค๐ ๐พ๐๐ง๐ ๐๐ค๐ง ๐ฉ๐๐ ๐๐๐ฉ๐๐ค๐ฃ: ๐๐ข๐๐ง๐๐๐๐ฃ๐ ๐ฉ๐๐ ๐๐๐จ๐ฅ๐ค๐ฃ๐จ๐๐๐๐ก๐๐ฉ๐ฎ ๐ฉ๐ค ๐๐๐๐ก, ๐๐๐ง๐ซ๐, ๐๐ฃ๐ ๐๐ฉ๐๐ฃ๐ ๐๐ค๐ง ๐ฉ๐๐ ๐๐๐ก๐๐ฅ๐๐ฃ๐ค ๐๐๐ค๐ฅ๐ก๐.โ
Having completed their clinical duties, Batch Akasi has gathered the knowledge, skills, and attitude necessary to the nursing profession. Named after ๐๐ค๐๐ฌ๐ข, the God of healing and sickness, the batch embraces the responsibility of bringing ๐ก๐จ๐ฉ๐, ๐๐จ๐ฆ๐ฉ๐๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ข๐จ๐ง, and ๐ก๐๐๐ฅ๐ข๐ง๐ to every life they touch.
The pins they wear and the rings placed on their fingers signify more than just completion. They serve as a reminder of the dedication, hard work, and passion that have brought them this far as they transition from student nurses into ๐๐๐ซ๐ซ๐ข๐๐ซ๐ฌ ๐จ๐ ๐ฅ๐ข๐ ๐ก๐ญ, ready to heal, serve, and stand for the Filipino people.
This event would not have been possible without the collective effort and constant support of the university officials headed by Dr. Joy M. Mirasol, the dedicated staff and faculty members of the College of Nursing headed by Dr. Ma. Algerica T. Cuenco, our respected guests and stakeholders, Ms. Dawn S. Maghanoy our resource person, families, and the students. With the light of care they now carry, we wish Batch Akasi all the best in graduation, the nursing licensure examination, and the path that lies ahead.
