The School of Accountancy and Business (SAB) and School of Engineering, Architecture, and Information Technology (SEAIT) honored the parents and guardians of their graduating students through the Tribute to Parents 2026, a meaningful celebration recognizing their love, sacrifices, and unwavering support throughout the students’ academic journey.

The SAB Tribute to Parents was held on June 20, 2026, at the Rev. Fr. Cornelius Tonus Gymnasium, bringing together graduating students from the departments of Accountancy, Hospitality and Tourism Management, Business Administration and Entrepreneurship, and Office Administration. The event provided an opportunity for students to express their heartfelt gratitude to their families who served as their source of strength and inspiration.

The program featured inspirational messages from University President Dr. John Octavious S. Palina, welcome remarks from Academic Dean Dr. Regina D. Ramel, the presentation of parents by faculty department heads, and tribute messages from student representatives.

Meanwhile, the SEAIT Tribute to Parents highlighted the graduates’ appreciation for their parents, grandparents, guardians, teachers, and loved ones who supported them throughout their educational journey. Through heartfelt messages, the students recognized their families as their first supporters who guided, encouraged, and inspired them to overcome challenges and pursue their goals.

Both celebrations emphasized the vital role of family support in shaping future professionals who are equipped with knowledge, values, and dedication to contribute to society. The Tribute to Parents 2026 served as a reminder that behind every achievement is a community of people who continue to believe, encourage, and stand with every Marian graduate.
