Guest of Honor and Speaker, PLTCOL Lawrence Keith D. Calub, the Chief of Police of Urdaneta City addressed the BAGANI class, underscoring the importance of values and skills in the field of criminology, but what holds these two together is ‘discipline’ inspiring the intern-students to carry the advice into their professional lives.
“As future Criminologists, it is your responsibility to uphold the values: integrity, diligence, and ethical conduct in all of your endeavors. The skills you have acquired through your rigorous training serve as your foundation which will build your career and make a positive impact on society.”
“However, skills are not enough. Discipline is the key that unlocks your true potential, and ensures that you stay focused, resilient, and dedicated to your goals. In the face of challenges and adversity, it is your discipline that will carry you through, guiding you always towards success and excellence in your undertakings,” PLTCOL Calub added.
Mr. Oswaldo P. Lapeña, the Internship Coordinator, presented the Criminology Intern (CI) graduates, highlighting the practical experiences and challenges the interns faced to prepare them for their future roles in law enforcement and public safety.
