Getting to Know Your CIM SSC (Part 3 of 3)

This is a continuation of the previous articles posted.

Members of the student council includes the presidents from each year level. They were asked about the unique traits of their batch and their contribution to the integrity of CIM. 

Albeth Mae A. Cajucom (Vertex): Batch Vertex is composed of individuals who are game for anything. We can be pretty spontaneous. In fact, we even surprise each other with what we can do. A lot of times, we can't really articulate or enumerate what we can do for you, but when something needs to be done, we will be there to offer you all that we can. We strive to be constantly at the top of our game (at our own "Vertex", if you will) and we always strive to give our best in all that we do and in all the things that we become a part of. We always ask ourselves, "What more can we do to make this better, to be better?" In this way, we resonate with CIM's goal of excellence. But while doing that, we also like to keep things less predictable, more lively, and thus, more passionate.

Kaira Monique G. Osmena (Spectra): I don't know if this sets our batch apart but in just a little bit over a year, I've come to realize how true and apt our batch name is for the people who are a part of it. Batch Spectra is one composed of different people, with different talents, and different skills. These are people set to become physicians with a heart and so much more. Here you find full-time med students, part time event organizers, choreographers, dancers, singers, actors, writers - the list could go on infinitely. In Spectra, we are all so different yet we come together in a beautifully harmonious entity. I guess that all of us in Spectra chose to go to the right school when we chose to go to CIM, because in our diversity, I believe, you can see how future medical practitioners, physicians with a heart, ought to be. The doctor of the future is someone who does not only seek to give cure but also one who tries to do what he can and leave an impact in society in his own way.

Florge Francis Sy (Asterion): Like the brightest star among a constellation of many, Asterion stands out bright, brilliant, beautiful and bold. One incredible quality that our batch possesses is the competence to deliver 110%. Through the three-year journey packed with uphill battles and undying challenges, Asterion has been resilient and more ardent than ever before. We continue to strive for excellence day by day by learning and experiencing medicine, by byilding and bridging bonds with one another and by rendering service where service is deserved. Every Asterionite is unique. Everyone stands out through his or her personality, wit, and talent. Despite each one's individualities, our hearts continue to beat as one. Asterion is a family unified by the love for one another, the passion for medicine and the mutual dream to become what we are all ought to be: physicians with a heart. Truly, the brightest stars are those who shine for the benefit of others.

Indeed, CIM is not just a home for future physicians but for people who dare to make a change.
