The activity was carried out under the guidance of the SAVER Advisers Dr. Elsa A. Gonzaga, Dr. Ronaldo J. Garduque, Dr. Khan L. Junatas, and Dr. Jan Clyden B. Tenorio.

The University of Southern Mindanao (USM) opened its much-awaited Pasiklaban 2025 celebration last September 24, 2025, with a symbolic Torch Parade that brought together accredited societies, fraternities, and sororities. Each organization marched while holding a torch, representing the fire that ignites unity and purpose within the studentry.

Among the participants was the USM Society for the Advancement of Veterinary Education and Research (SAVER), which carried not only the torch but also a message of advocacy. Through its participation, USM SAVER emphasized its firm stance against corruption: an issue that continues to challenge the nation today.

In a time when corruption remains rampant, USM SAVER reaffirmed its social and political awareness by using this platform to raise awareness and inspire action. The organization emphasized that upholding integrity is inseparable from its core values: Professionalism, Excellence, and Brotherhood.

As the grandest and most awaited event in the University of Southern Mindanao, Pasiklaban 2025 once again lit up with pride and unity. Among the sea of lights, USM SAVER marched carrying a torch and a purpose.
