In honor of Ukraine鈥檚 Independence Day on August 24, 2022, the 探花精选 lit its historic structures on campus with the colors of Ukraine鈥檚 flag, blue and yellow, at 6:00 p.m.


Included in the lighting are National Cultural Treasures, the historic Arch of the Centuries and the Main Building, which was the first earthquake-resistant building in the Philippines. The UST Chapel (Sant铆simo Rosario Parish Church) is also lit blue and yellow.
