Honoring a legacy that continues to shape the future of legal education at Mindanao State University โ€“ Tawi-Tawi College of Technology and Oceanography.

We pay tribute to the late 8th Regular President of MSU, Sultan Atty. Basari D. Mapupuno, whose leadership and vision played a pivotal role in the approval of the Juris Doctor program at MSU TCTOโ€”opening doors for aspiring legal professionals in the Bangsamoro region and beyond.

The MSU College of Law at MSU TCTO remains steadfast in fulfilling his dream of making legal education accessible to allโ€”especially for the people of Tawi-Tawi.

In recognition of his enduring contributions, the soon-to-rise College of Law building at MSU TCTO now proudly bears his name, made official through Resolution No. 443, series of 2025, by the MSU Board of Regents.

A tribute to a leader whose impact will continue to guide generations.

MARAWI CITY โ€” Mindanao State University (MSU) College of Law celebrated its 45th Founding Anniversary today, March 26, 2026. Under the theme "Inclusive Justice, Enduring Legacy: 45 Years of Shaping Minds, Upholding the Rule of Law," the event gathered faculty, staff, and students at the College of Law grounds to commemorate nearly half a century of legal excellence.

College Secretary Naila M. Muti, JD, MPA, highlighted the institution's historical significance during her address. Drawing from 15 years of academic service, Muti described the college as a "beacon of excellence, integrity, and service."

"May this milestone inspire continued commitment to truth, honor, and the rule of law for this generation and those to come," Muti stated, emphasizing the collegeโ€™s role in shaping the legal landscape of the region.

For the student body, the celebration provided a necessary reprieve from the rigors of legal education. Alea Janefa Dimaro, a first-year Juris Doctor (JD) student, noted that the anniversary offered a "breath of fresh air" amid heavy academic workloads.

"This is my first time participating," Dimaro said. "Iโ€™m thankful weโ€™ve had the chance to reconnect and spend time with each other without worrying about pending readings."

Addressing aspiring law students and incoming freshmen, Dimaro emphasized resilience over raw intellect. "Anyone can come to law school," she remarked. "Law is difficult, but if you truly want to, you must persevere."

The 45th anniversary underscores the College of Lawโ€™s mission to produce legal professionals dedicated to the principles of inclusive justice and the enduring legacy of the MSU System.
