Starting Monday, September 8, 2025, a series of light shows will illuminate the UST Main Building at 6:30 pm, with each UAAP school’s color and chant being featured.
This University initiative, taken care of by the Facilities Management Office and overseen by the UAAP Season 88 Organizing Committee, is done in preparation for September 19, when hundreds of representatives from the 7 partner schools of UST will troop to España to mark the opening of Season 88.
The light show bears the title Light of Hope, blending both this year’s Jubilee focus on Hope and the shared mission entrusted to the University of Santo Tomas and to schools: to spread the Light. Furthermore, the Light of Hope initiative serves as a moving reminder that hope endures even amidst life’s uncertainties.
The nightly show also symbolically marks the remaining days in the Journey of Hope, which serves as the overall inspiration for the UAAP Season 88 Opening Ceremonies.
