Fifty-two years have passed today since former dictator Ferdinand E. Marcos Sr. signed the Presidential Proclamation No. 1081, also known as the Martial Law which marked the start of a horrific legacy that still serves as a brutal stain throughout Philippine history.

"To save the Republic and form a new society," was what he proclaimed, that democracy remains unchanged, unaware of the damage he would inevitably reigned.

But the masses remembered differently, all they remembered was a time of poverty and military brutality.

Truly, the numbers don't lie.

Thousands of missing relatives, tortured activists, and innocents remain without justice. Those 14 years of hell for the Philippines remain burned into the minds of every citizen who was there to witness it.

For every day we live in a free Philippines, we should remember the path it took to get here; for every refusal to acknowledge or denial of the ‘true history,’ we must know that it is our duty to correct and educate—to never forget, and to shout “never again!”

To cater upcoming voters for the Senatorial Elections 2025, La Salle University – Ozamiz, led by the Social Concerns Center (SCC), holds the avenue for the Voter’s Registration, September 18 at the LSU Seminar Room.

Together with the staff from the Commission on Elections (COMELEC), the said event allocated Lasallian students from the Senior High School and Higher Education Unit (HEU) department in place of the Voter’s Education Seminar that took place last September 11 via Google Meet.

Meanwhile, the said registration was also open for all academic and professional partners, as well as outsiders who wished to register early.

𝐄𝐃𝐈𝐓𝐎𝐑𝐈𝐀𝐋 | Nearing the preliminary examinations, students endure tiresome nights of studying as they try to recall all the lessons taught across approximately ten subjects each semester. Yet, what exactly undermines their efforts is the mere fact that the majority of the students cannot even take the examinations due to LSU - Ozamiz’s abrupt implementation in its means of securing a promissory note without proper announcement and dissemination of information before the examination week, plus their strict enforcement of their ‘No Permit, No Exam’ policy.

The concept and existence of the promissory note is no stranger to students as it has been around for years—and has helped students in sustaining their studies in the institution.

While it is within the University’s right to implement certain policies to secure the school’s operations in providing students with services and facilities, its brand new guidelines have inherently changed in reference to the newly enacted law, Republic Act 11984, or better known as the “No Permit, No Exam Prohibition Act.”

To the University, the students’ inability to participate in examinations due to unsettled balances may be a common occurrence, and it reflects a system built from the foundations of helping the disadvantaged that has since transformed into one that perpetuates inequality—effectively becoming anti-poor.

The Admissions and Scholarships Center (ASC) instructed students to do the following measures for a promissory note: schedule an appointment, fill out the application form for promissory note that involves uploading their Certificate of Disadvantage Status which is the requirement of RA 11984 as it stipulates social welfare development officials in the municipality, city, or province, as well as the regional office of the Department of Social Welfare and Development, to give certificates to underprivileged pupils in the event of tragedies, crises, or other valid causes as a means to qualify for a promissory note.

Then with the lack of proper information dissemination about the new process for obtaining the promissory note, many students questioned the institution and posed their pilling concerns and disappointment about the matter. “𝘞𝘢𝘭𝘢 𝘭𝘢𝘨𝘪 𝘮𝘪 𝘬𝘢𝘣𝘢𝘭𝘰 𝘢𝘯𝘪 𝘯𝘨𝘢 𝘤𝘩𝘢𝘯𝘨𝘦𝘴.” “𝘒𝘢𝘯𝘶𝘴-𝘢 𝘳𝘢 𝘥𝘪𝘢𝘺 𝘯𝘢𝘶𝘴𝘢𝘣 𝘢𝘯𝘨 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘤𝘦𝘴𝘴? 𝘕𝘢𝘨 𝘱𝘰𝘴𝘵 𝘴𝘪𝘭𝘢 𝘰𝘯𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘦?” “𝘉𝘺 𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘰𝘪𝘯𝘵𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘥𝘪𝘢𝘺 𝘢𝘯𝘨 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘮𝘪𝘴𝘴𝘰𝘳𝘺 𝘳𝘰𝘯?” “𝘒𝘶𝘵𝘪𝘩𝘢 𝘯𝘢 𝘥𝘪𝘢𝘺 𝘬𝘢𝘢𝘺𝘰 𝘴𝘢 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘤𝘦𝘴𝘴? 𝘜𝘯𝘴𝘢𝘰𝘯 𝘮𝘢𝘯𝘪 𝘱𝘢𝘨 𝘩𝘶𝘮𝘢𝘯 𝘬𝘢𝘳𝘶𝘯?” “𝘌𝘹𝘢𝘮 𝘯𝘢 𝘶𝘨𝘮𝘢, 𝘶𝘯𝘺𝘢 𝘯𝘦𝘹𝘵 𝘸𝘦𝘦𝘬 𝘱𝘢 𝘢𝘬𝘰𝘯𝘨 𝘴𝘤𝘩𝘦𝘥𝘶𝘭𝘦 𝘴𝘢 𝘱𝘢𝘨 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘮𝘪𝘴𝘴𝘰𝘳𝘺.”

These are only a few of the complaints aired by the students as soon as they learned about the new policies for obtaining a promissory note, causing distress, and thinking that they would not be able to take the exams.

Although, according to the student assistants of the ASC, the announcement regarding the new process of acquiring a promissory note has been posted since the previous semester. Posted, per se, at what it seems to be at the doors of the office itself.

This poses a big question: 𝗔𝘀 𝗮 𝗨𝗻𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 ‘𝗲𝗺𝗯𝗼𝗱𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝗲𝘅𝗰𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲’ 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘄𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝘀𝗮𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝗮𝗹𝘄𝗮𝘆𝘀 ‘𝘃𝗮𝗹𝘂𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝘂𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀,’ 𝘄𝗵𝘆 𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗟𝗦𝗨 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗽𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝘀𝘂𝗰𝗵 𝗸𝗲𝘆 𝗶𝗻𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗼𝗻 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘄𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗯𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗶𝗻𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁𝘆?

It seems that the University did not want to make it seem that they are promoting the usage of promissory notes to encourage students to pay by choosing not to disseminate information through online platforms such as Facebook, Google Mail, or Canvas.

Although students also have an obligation to pay their school fees and their outstanding balance given that the school may have a lot of financial obligations for it to function—that does not deny the fact that the University also has an obligation to inform students on matters—most especially if it concerns their academic standing, financial status, and their overall well-being as students of the institution.

Given the action of the school, the matter puts those at the edge of socioeconomic status at a disadvantage considering that they have no other means at present to comply with the University’s policy.

Many students have also expressed their concerns about how there are professors who would only allow students to take the exam the moment they obtain a permit, which is somehow impossible to catch up considering that the appointment bookings for the promissory notes are available on the second day of the exams and beyond. On the other hand, some instructors would allow their students the ultimatum of not recording their scores until they had paid their dues.

There is also the issue of instructors not allowing students to take the exam in adherence to the policy, however, students will be automatically given a score of 0 for their preliminary examinations without any opportunity to take a special exam.

Moreover, their decision to post examination guidelines a day before the preliminary examinations is a band-aid solution to a gaping wound of an issue.

In light of the overwhelming financial rigor, the University failed to mention the lengthy process of obtaining one of the most important requirements, the Certificate of Disadvantage, as it takes approximately 2-3 days for it to be approved and released to those who inquired, leaving students with no time to comply.

Their inefficiency in disclosing important information not only adds stress and anxiety to the already struggling students, but also poses a risk as some students are already planning to drop out of the current semester—delaying their education such as student Kaloy, a second year student of the University, who mentioned stopping his schooling. "𝘐 𝘸𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘴𝘵𝘰𝘱 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘴𝘦𝘮 𝘱𝘰 𝘬𝘢𝘺 𝘥𝘪𝘭𝘪 𝘯𝘢 𝘬𝘢𝘺𝘢,” he said. Another student also shared their frustrations, according to alias Baby, “𝘔𝘢𝘭𝘩𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘢! 𝘕𝘢𝘨𝘬𝘢-𝘥𝘶𝘨𝘢𝘺, 𝘯𝘢𝘨𝘬𝘢-𝘥𝘦𝘮𝘢𝘯𝘥𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘯𝘢’𝘨 𝘢𝘺𝘰,” in reference to the new process.

If LSU - Ozamiz continues to avoid informing students properly, such as in this occurrence, then they would have to watch the enrollment rates drop come this second semester, or even the next school year, as it seemed that their action has unfortunately built an anti-poor system that crushes the graves of students’ goals and aspirations of graduating from higher education.

Whilst the University prides itself on providing quality education for everyone, and more so for the poor, following the vision of its founder, it should also live in such reality.

𝗘𝘅𝗮𝗺𝘀 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗺𝗲𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗺𝗲𝗮𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝗸𝗻𝗼𝘄𝗹𝗲𝗱𝗴𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘀𝗸𝗶𝗹𝗹𝘀 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻𝗲𝗱, 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝗳𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗰𝗮𝗽𝗮𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆.

However, the institution’s negligence and refusal to provide a proper orientation—one that is properly organized and scheduled under ideal circumstances where the majority of the community can attend—and its lack of reconsideration regarding the promissory note portray the university as a merciless institution, devoid of any empathy for students and their situations.

The ideals of the university of transforming lives and reshaping futures have taken on double meanings as these juxtaposes transformative education and its ideals against the economic hardships that students face.

Students are urging to consider extending the deadlines for the promissory notes and permits, and waiving the policy as they continue to scramble to secure the lengthy requirements needed for the promissory note.

If it cannot be waived for the preliminary examinations, then its schedule must adjust to cater to the students who are processing the needed requirement, bearing in mind that the institution did not give students enough time by not informing them weeks prior.

“Teaching minds, touching hearts, transforming lives,” is a quote that is relentlessly being reminded to be exemplified by those in the Lasallian community as It reflects its commitment to holistic education and equity, deeply rooted within the philosophy and teachings of its founder, St. John Baptist de La Salle.

Nonetheless, the actions taken by the university that affected the majority of the students have caused these lived guiding principles to falter.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗴𝗼𝗮𝗹 𝗼𝗳 𝗲𝗱𝘂𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝘂𝗽𝗹𝗶𝗳𝘁, 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗰𝘁. Education is the cornerstone for growth, social mobility, and national progress.

LSU - Ozamiz, an institution dedicated to cultivating these qualities, is supposed to be a shining example of these ideals. It should rise to the occasion and truly reflect the principles it professes.

This being said, the University should adhere to their mission of 𝙧𝙚𝙨𝙝𝙖𝙥𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙛𝙪𝙩𝙪𝙧𝙚𝙨, instead of taking away the students’ dream of a promising future.

Ngayong ika-30 ng Agosto, ipinagdiriwang ng bansa ang National Press Freedom Day bilang pag-alala sa ama ng Philippine Journalism na si Marcelo H. Del Pilar, isang manunulat, na kilala sa ilalim ng kanyang seudónimó na "Plaridel."

Ang araw na ito ay nagsisilbing paalala sa isa sa mga pinakadakilang propagandista na naghangad ng kalayaan ng Pilipinas, sa pamamagitan ng kanyang panulat laban sa mapang-abusong kapangyarihan ng mga mananakop.

Sa kasalukuyan, animo'y sumasalamin ang kasaysayan sa ating panahon, dahil nahaharap ang kalayaan sa pamamahayag sa iba-ibang banta tulad ng state surveillance, red-tagging, at censorship.

Sa kabila ng mga pagsubok na ito, hindi sumusuko ang mga mamamahayag sa paggamit ng kanilang tinig upang maging boses ng katotohanan para sa kapakanan ng bayan.

Dahil sa lahat ng pagkakataon, ang malayang pamamahayag ay kailanman hindi matitinag!

Pinaslang ang dating Senador Ninoy Aquino Jr. noong ika-21 ng Agosto 1983 sa Manila International Airport, o mas kilala ngayon bilang Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA). Ating ginugunita ang kanyang pagpanaw bilang isang paalala kung paano natin nakamit ang demokrasya para sa ating bansa.

Naging mitsa ng EDSA People Power Revolution ang kanyang pagkamatay, na siyang tumapos sa ilang taong paghahari ng diktaduryang pangulo ng bansa na si Ferdinand Marcos Sr.

Ngunit, idineklara ni Pangulong Bongbong Marcos ang paglipat ng nasabing pagdiriwang sa ika-23 ng Agosto, ayon sa Proclamation No. 665 bilang isang special non-working holiday, upang mapalakas ang lokal na turismo ng bansa.

Mapanganib ang pagbabagong ito, ayon sa iilang ‘human rights activists,’ dahil maaaring maging hakbang ito sa historical revisionism ng ating bansa. Ito ay maituturing din na paglabag sa batas o ang RA 9492, ayon kay Albay Rep. Edcel Lagman, dahil hindi ito inanunsyo anim na buwan bago ang pagdiriwang.

Gayunpaman, nawa’y manatili sa ating alaala ang diwa ng araw na ito. Patuloy nating pahalagahan ang katotohanan at ang pagnanais para sa isang mas makatarungan at malayang bayan.
