UC College of Law hosted a Testimonial Dinner in May 2025 in honor of its 2024 bar passers, with Associate Justice Mario V. Lopez, 2024 Bar Chairman, as the esteemed guest speaker.

Justice Lopez delivered an inspiring keynote message filled with congratulations, reflections, and encouragement for the new lawyers. His presence served as a powerful reminder of the integrity, honor, and duty that come with entering the legal profession.

Themed “Hiraya,” a Filipino term for the realization of long-cherished dreams, the evening highlighted the perseverance, dedication, and sacrifices of the bar passers, celebrating not only their success but also the journey that they will face in the future as legal professionals.
