Led by the Reserve Officers’ Training Corps (ROTC) and NSTP-Kaagapay volunteers, the campus-wide ‘Walk Away from Drugs Parade’ took place within the campus grounds, with voluntary participation from SorSUeno students, faculty members, and staff, highlighting their commitment to leading drug-free lives. Additionally, the ‘SorSU Drug-Free Pledge Wall’ served as a platform for the campus community members, especially the students, to share messages, pledges, and even artwork, demonstrating their support and dedication to drug-free lifestyles.
