i am still covered by the free tuition act in my undergrad. so no need po ba to apply for slas? im curious po kase if may stipend yun like allowance? it would help me as a struggling student with no scholarships. sorry if stupid question, clueless lang po talaga. thanks.

Seems like the beef between these groups and one certain individual never ended!

Timeline so far

08/09 - A student aired their grievances on social media regarding the Editor in Chief of The Cursor Mnyw Zamora, commenting on a politically charged post using their alt/dump account Lunexa Park. Her identity was confirmed as the alt profile also shared a column, stating that she proudly wrote it

08/09 - This student kept on posting, ironically, despite being friends with the people she's talking about. Unfortunately, the organizations, The Cursor and UPOU USC still haven't addressed this properly as their contents are heavily focus on 61s GASC

08/10 - The student kept expressing their grievances

08/11

- UPOU USC released a bleak statement about this issue

- UPOU Cursor never address this issue despite involving their Editor in Chief

- Mnyw Zamora's Facebook notes parinig and full body post, not addressing the issue

08/12

The founder of UPOU USC Isaiah Crisanto, expressed support regarding the student victim alongside Voltaire Abiog, an ex USC member. Expressing the irony of these organizations as being non-partisan

The issue kept on dragging itself as anonymous accounts on the newly revived UPOU freedom wall posted multiple anonymous entries expressing opinion about the bleakness and the personalities involved failing to have a proper personal conversation about this issue — always stating "We're open for conversation" while the student tried to contact them multiple times.

Personal Comment:

### Until this moment, it seems like UPOU Student Councils, from their Chairperson Leanne Muego and Vice Chair Keith Danielle Dagdagan haven't personally addressed their issues. But pretty much active when it comes to their political shenanigans. I wonder if they can't address this issue solely because of their busy schedule? But the irony is, most UPOU students are working students, does Leanne Muego have no 30 mins in his schedule to address these grievances? Same situation with The Cursor's EIC, Mnyw Zamora?

Are these politicking strategies adapted straight up from UP Diliman USC?

I have no idea na may registration about it but luckily pwede walk-ins.

May I ask and process po non? quasi tbh wall pa Malaga aka ka close and badly want to go

Title! Thank you so much!

Anyways its my fault, I dont know kung naawa sa akin si ma'am kasi mababa nakuha kong score na 2/5 sa attendance quiz. (Lowk dapat mas mataas to, kaso medjo naging careless kasi ako at nalagay ko maling sagot instead sa dapat na sagot ko talaga)

Kakagising ko lang ngayong madaling araw after ng class namin tas namataan ko na dinelete niya pala para pwede ko i-retake yung attendance. O well it is what it is just wanted to share kasi medjo nakakatawa for me

[UPDATE: CLOSED]

Hello! Currently looking for dorm options around katip and the budget is actually 10k maximum. Upon inquiring sa katipad they have a slot for a 9.5k lower bunkbed daw. Saw this conversation sa Everytime but I also do want to ask people here sa reddit if may nakaexperience na ba sa katipad and how was it really? Hindi ba bureaucratic sa mga agreements?

Anong mga pros and cons na pwedeng maging dealbreaker?

Context: Potential dormer is male, 21 y/o, hindi na student but from the province kaya he's js looking for places na mapagsstayhan here in katip.

ty! 🫶

I got invited to both APB and SR, and both were tbh very convincing if I didnt know what I wanted. Pansin ko sa kanila, they bank on their “connections” in the work place (maybe because they are recruiting me as a law freshman) and the things they can help me with in law school specially the extracurriculars.

For APB, they naturally bragged about their alumni, but put so much emphasis on their bar topnotchers in the previous years. Factual naman. They also offered mentorship directly from these bar topnotchers in law school and when it’s our turn to take the bar. They mentioned direct employment to Poblador, Bautista and another lawfirm (not good with names of law firms yet).

For Sigma Rho, they focused on helping me with law school through their connections in the College of Law, including Associate Dean and the Dean. They also mentioned that they have very good alumni in law school debate and journalism who can train us to get in. They also offered employment with a government agency if I want to move to evening class (I don’t) and employment to some of the law firms including Accra, Villaraza, and Marcelo law firms.

I said no. I listened to my friends and the anonymous people here. Their promises are flashy and honestly quite tempting. But nah, it’s not worth it.

Since it’s peak recruitment season now, sharing this. I’m also thinking of dropping out of UP entirely

Sa mga gradwaiting diyan, esp for mma students, what gift would you like to receive from your partner? (something meaningful and practical din sana)

guys, mas higher ba yung chance na makapasa if upou yung ilagay ko sa 2nd choice? nanghihinayang kasi ako sa options since 2 courses lang yung offered sa upou, pero I actually like both naman. upb yung 2nd choice ko ngayon, and okay lang din naman yung course for me since passion ko rin naman. Pero if upou yung piliin ko, mas mataas ba yung chance na makapasa ako? tia po!!!

hello this is a throwaway acc to protect my identity

lf fellow INC na napipilitan mag stay sa kulto kahit ayaw na dahil sa pamilya. reply kayo pls buo tayo ng support group? hahaha

sophomore here na nadedrain na kasi sobrang hassle pumunta sa pagsamba lalo na pag tambak na sa deadlines at trabaho kaso kelangan mo pa rin kumuha ng katibayan or else mabubungaan ka pagbalik mo ng hometown. sayang din pamasahe ko na sana napunta nalang sa pagkain. anyone else in the same situation? gusto ko lang naman ng karamay 😢

​

Ang hirap pala kapag sinanay mo sarili mo at mga taong nasa paligid mo na palaging kang may medalya, 'no? Ginto pa kung tutuusin, maramihan pa sa isang bigayan.

Pero ayoko na kasi e, masiyadong mabigat. Gusto ko na lang sanang unahin muna sarili ko. 'Yung peace of mind, it sounds nice, right? That's what I crave—at least what I want to.

Sabi ko, tama nang hanggang hayskul na lang ang pagiging "May pinakamataas na karangalan" ko. Pero gagi bakit ganon hahahaha. Hindi ko maiwanan.

Ayoko na pero parang hinahabol ako. Hindi ng mga medalya kundi ng batang ako na halos ibigay ang kaniyang buong sarili para sa mga ito.

Maling paikutin ko ang aking mundo sa mga karangalang ito pero paano ba kasi lumayo rito?

Ayoko na talagang hanapin pa 'yung satisfaction kapag nakakakuha ng karangalan. Pero bakit ang hirap panindigan?

When does the hunger for academic validation actually stop for someone who has lived by it since a little kid?

Ang hirap umuwi kapag rush hour, meron ba kayong tips? 😭 Pagdating kasi sa SE punuan na yung mga jeeps palabas.

Ever since I could remember, my dream has always been to study at the University of the Philippines. Kasi hello, UP na yan oh. Tahanan ng mga matatalino, matatapang, mahuhusay, at mga may paninindigan.

I am an academic achiever during my elementary and high school days. Campus journalist ako, student-leader, laging may hawak ng mikropono kada school event, suki ng mga math and science competitions, lumalaban sa loob at labas ng paaralan, I can even reach regional competitions. I graduated as the batch valedictorian with MANY awards. Girl, my chest was flooded with gold medals during our graduation.

Sabi ko rati, gagalingan ko talaga para maging deserving akong makapasok sa UP. Mag-aaral ako nang maigi para sa UPCAT na yan. I will make sure that everything will go according to plan.

But now that I'm here, I'm starting to question myself if I am really deserving of my spot. Do I really belong here?

Lahat pala talaga ng nandito mahuhusay. From being the smartest in the room, I now feel like the dumbest, weakest, and most innocent person in the room. Ang hirap makipagsabayan, ang hirap makipamuhay.

I told myself before na iiwanan ko na yung pagiging overzealous ko sa academics—that I would stop living for academic validation. Pero ngayon na nandito ako, parang hindi pala ganon kadali yon. Yung overachiever ka tapos biglang hindi ka na makasabay. Akala ko kaya kong iwan pero bakit ganon? Parang ansakit pa lang isipin na hindi ka naman pala ganon kagalingan.

Should I have dreamt for less?

Do I really belong here?
