SM City Roxas pulsed with energy on March 22, 2025, as CAPSU Pasundayag 2025 unfolded in a spectacular showcase of talents, passion, and panache. Serving as the grand finale to CAPSU’s 21st anniversary, the event was nothing short of a resounding success, proving that the university is not just a hub of academic excellence but a thriving ground for artistic brilliance and creative expression.

From the haunting beauty of Tapaz Satellite College’s Ambahan and Dumarao Satellite College’s soul-stirring kundiman “Nasaan Ka, Irog,” to the dazzling fusion of folk, creative, and contemporary dance from the Main Campus, every performance was a celebration of heritage, artistry, and innovation. Burias Campus and Pontevedra College brought the stage to life with theatrical flair, delivering a compelling short play and a quirky, fun musical that had the audience enthralled. Sigma Satellite College’s lip synchronization act added a playful yet mesmerizing element to the showcase, proving that creativity knows no bounds.

As the event reached its peak, the stage ignited with high-energy performances from the powerhouse vocalists of Pilar and Dayao Satellite Colleges, followed by a thrilling series of contemporary and street dances that set the venue ablaze with rhythm and movement. The electrifying routines of Mambusao, Pilar, Dayao, and Pontevedra’s street dance contingents turned the celebration into a full-blown festival, bringing an infectious energy that left the crowd in awe.

A defining moment of the event came when CAPSU key officials, led by University President Dr. Efren L. Linan, took to the floor for the Unity Dance, symbolizing the collective strength, resilience, and unbreakable spirit of the CAPSU community. As they moved in sync, the performance became more than just a dance—it was a powerful representation of the shared dreams and aspirations that bind the university together. The program closed with a photo opportunity featuring the nine campuses and satellite colleges alongside CAPSU’s key officials, capturing the essence of camaraderie and pride that defined the day.

Reflecting on the significance of the university’s 21-year journey, President Linan delivered an inspiring message that resonated deeply with students and faculty alike. “Reaching this milestone is not just about how long we have existed as an institution, but about the countless dreams that have been born, nurtured, and pursued within our walls—many of which are your own. Every step you take, every challenge you face, and every success or failure is part of a bigger story. This is a story of growth, perseverance, and transformation. So as we celebrate 21 years of excellence, I encourage you to keep going, keep believing, and keep becoming. Let this celebration remind you that greatness is not a distant destination—it is a daily decision to grow, to aim high, to find your purpose, and to become better than who you were yesterday.”

As the curtains closed on CAPSU Pasundayag 2025, one thing was certain—the university had once again proven that excellence is not confined to classrooms and laboratories, but thrives on every stage where talent, passion, and dedication come together. With a medley of talents, an unyielding commitment to growth, and a community united in purpose, CAPSU stands tall as a beacon of inspiration for generations to come.
