Using Mill’s concept, this study delved deeper into the understanding the Subjection of Women, the notion of gender equality and the relevance of Mill‘s rule of equal justice among the University of the Immaculate Conception (UIC) Liberal Arts students. This study employed a descriptive content analysis method wherein the researchers used latent type of communication through a classification and evaluation of key concepts and analyzed them to ascertain their meaning and probable effect. The researcher found that the University of the Immaculate Conception Liberal Arts’ provisions already contains gender equality in the program and in the whole school, in general.
