Highlighting the recent series of events of corruption and negligence of the government, he emphasized that as accountants, such acts shall not be committed. He further stressed that through educating and properly training the aspiring accountants, such negligence and corruption may be mitigated, further quoting Theodore Roosevelt: “to educate a person in mind but not in morals is to educate a menace to society.” After the opening remarks by Dean Ankiat, the incumbent CKSC-JPIA president, Leslie Ann Guerrera, introduced JPIA and its aims and functions, the new set of officers and their duties, and a promise to provide the BS Accountancy students a good academic year ahead.
