the government along with other member publications of the College Editors Guild of
the Philippines.
But after those days are gone, it seems that student publications are still living the old
ways. Sour-grapping and culture of bitterness remain to be a barrier that separates
administration and publication. Students show that more than 30 percent of the total
school organs are in disparity.
Misunderstanding often results to radical activism, rallies, chaotic campus politics,
sensationalized journalism.
What are we called to do
Campus journalist should act in accordance to the challenge of his time. Modern
roadblocks need modern-day solutions. Instead of focusing on projects and programs
that are national in nature, why not reach the grassroots and localize actions.
Grassroots media training means empowerment of journalists down the line. It means a
boost to their morale and spirit to focus on their strength and plans for their
communities. Through this, they would realize their potentials as potent tools in
community building rather than radical activism and sensationalism.
Projects to be implemented
1. Regional/Provincial Leadership Congress for Campus Journalists
2. Kapihan, roundtable forum of writers (school level, consortium, municipal, provincial)
3. Semestral journalism training (per publication)
4. Forge partnership with local newspapers (OJT, practicum, and experience sourcing)
5. Values formation/team building workshop
6. Regional/Provincial competitions ( as per RA 7079 to be requested to CHED)
7. Organize campus journalists exchange programs
8. Mobilize campus journalists at immersion programs to tackle community concerns
rather than national issues
9. Organize dialogue with community leaders, local government officials and NGOs to
get first hand information
10. Coordinate/network programs with neighbor publications and local NCJP chapters
