PUSAG was established in 2007 and now actively works with many private institutions across the country. It aims to offer a common platform for effective networking and the coordination of student activities on issues of national and international interest. It also seeks to instill in students a sense of discipline and active participation in all activities relating to national development, while promoting friendship and cooperation between PUSAG and the public universities.
In addition to some notable activities such as the annual PUSAG Sports and Entertainment Festival, PUSAG is taking initiatives to inform and contribute to the discussions on issues that threaten to deprive private universities of opportunities and growth
Venerable Fr. Francis Libermann
April 14, 1802 – February 2, 1852
Don’t jump to conclusions and don’t judge according to what you are used to in Europe. Forget about Europe, its customs, its ways of thinking; you have to make yourselves blacks with the blacks so as to form them in their own way and not according to the European model. For their perfection and sanctification, relate to them as slaves do to the customs and habits of their masters, so that gradually you will make them a people of God. This is what St. Paul refers to as making ourselves all things to all men so as to win them for Jesus Christ.
Libermann to the community of Dakar, November 1847. NDIX, p.330-331
