| USJ-R SSC REMAINS IN CLOSE COORDINATION WITH THE UNIVERSITY ADMINISTRATION ON THE CURRENT AIR QUALITY SITUATION

Today, September 20, 2026, the USJ-R Supreme Student Council 45th Congress continues to coordinate with the University Administration following the latest air quality advisory issued by the Environmental Management Bureau Region VII (EMB-7).

As of 11:00am, EMB-7 recorded an Air Quality Index (AQI) of 260 at the Metro Cebu Ambient Air Quality Monitoring Station, classified as “Acutely Unhealthy.” The advisory is being monitored by the appropriate government agencies in relation to the transboundary haze affecting the region.

While awaiting any official University advisories, the Council encourages all Josenians to exercise caution and follow the health and safety recommendations issued by EMB-7 and other relevant authorities. This includes wearing a well-fitting face mask, preferably an N95 or equivalent, limiting unnecessary outdoor activities, and taking extra precautions for those with respiratory or cardiovascular conditions.

The Council remains committed to relaying the concerns of the student body to the appropriate University offices and will continue to provide timely updates through our official communication channels as soon as official information becomes available.

Eyes Here, Josenians!

Please be advised that SSC Services will be temporarily unavailable throughout Preliminary Examination Week, with the exception of Borrow-Ko-Beh, which will remain available for your needs.

Good luck, do your best, and ace those exams, Josenians! 🩷

| Call for Donations

Jan Vincent C. Mapula, a former Bachelor of Science in Nursing 2nd-year student, is seeking support as he continues to battle Osteosarcoma (bone cancer) with Lung Metastasis. The cancer has now spread to his lungs. His left lung has been repeatedly collapsing, while his right lung has fluid buildup, making it extremely difficult for him to breathe.

As he continues his treatment, Jan Vincent recently underwent a blood patch procedure to help address the problem in his lung. Unfortunately, the procedure was not enough to completely seal the affected area, and he now needs to undergo another blood patch operation as soon as possible.

As he continues to receive medical care, Jan Vincent and his family are facing the financial challenges brought by his ongoing treatment and upcoming procedure. They are humbly asking for financial assistance, prayers, and support as he continues to fight through this difficult journey.

As The Council That Does It With You, we believe that no Josenian should have to face hardships alone. Through unity, compassion, and collective action, we can help ease his burden and remind him that he has a community standing beside him.

For those who wish to extend financial assistance, you may send your donations through the account details provided below.
