The uniqueness of an individual makes him/her different from others. Indeed, God has given each one of us various gifts ranging from talent, time, and/or treasure. Everyone is best at something but no one is best at everything. He/She maybe blessed with talent which can contribute to the betterment of a community but he/she will need time and treasure to progress and these may be found in other people.
CPU Student Organizations are indeed diverse. There are fields which specialize in academics, culture, religion, etc. These organizations are best in what they have to offer and they fill the needs of this university and its student body. Sharing time, talent, and treasure, these organizations should be different to achieve one goal for the beloved Central Philippine University. After all, God has commanded us to be the stewards of this earth He created.
If student organizations function in the same way, other aspects wouldn’t be touched. If all these groups are academically inclined, where would those who long to express themselves through art go? If all these organizations are the same, where would other talent, time, and treasure be honed and shared? Undeniably, diversity is necessary to have balance.
To widely contribute to this alma mater, the diversity among CPU student organizations is a great help. In the end, it doesn’t matter who the best is or who could share the most time or the most talent or the most treasure. What’s important is that an organization is filling in the lack of one organization for the good and betterment of Central.
