“I chose to be a Student Assistant in my 2nd year of college. It gave me the chance to continue my studies. With my parents already on medication and income not enough to support my education, this opportunity has been a huge help. 

Being a Student Assistant has changed the way I see myself, not just as a student, but as someone capable of handling real responsibilities. Through this role, I discovered strengths I didn’t know I had. It taught me how to manage my time, balance academic deadlines with office tasks, and stay calm even when things get overwhelming. Little by little, I’ve started to see where I truly excel. 

My biggest dream is to become a lawyer. I want to protect innocent people and promote equality, no matter what their status in life may be. St. Jude College Dasmariñas has supported me in many different ways. Being part of this community made me realize that I’m not just growing academically, but I’m growing as a person. And that’s something I’ll carry even after college.”
