THIRD BAGRO: Credentials. Competence. Character.

What are we looking for in the next UP Diliman USC Chairperson:

1. He should be able to LEAD and SERVE; not momentarily, not for credentials, not for show.

2. He should be able to transcend political lines and boundaries. His understanding of the varying and shifting political terrain is crucial in order to get things done. He should be able to work harmoniously with his co-officers and councilmates to provide a clear direction for the whole council.

3. His claim to LEADERSHIP and SERVICE should be backed by HARD EVIDENCE -- A track record of impeccable character, competence and credentials that should equip him of the fundamentals of running the position and the council.

4. He is open and ready to listen; consensus driven and not imposing, multi-perspective and not dogmatic.

5. He should be HUMBLE and PASSIONATE. Humility comes with a firm resolve to work together; with willingness to cross boundary lines but not compromising principles.

6. He should be BOLD in approaching issues. He is not afraid to tow the line just so to provide adequate, concrete and practical solutions without letting go of principles.

Therefore:

THIRD BAGRO
UP Diliman USC Chairperson

COMPETENCE, CHARACTER, CREDENTIALS are not earned overnight. They cannot be packaged in good words. With nearly 4 years of student council experience... He is the most equipped to lead the USC. No nonsense, no empty positions.

Actions speaking louder than words.
