Maligayang Pasko everyone! Happy Holidays & Happy New Year!

Good morning Kasamas,

As previously mentioned, the unnamed and unwelcome alternative newspaper is rumored to return to our campus on Thursday, December 8th. With that, I encourage you all to resist reading the material and instead recycle it! Each newspaper recycled makes all the difference in combating such hurtful media from infecting our campus. Also, don’t forget to talk to those who are unaware of the harmful repercussions of the material and inform them on different ways they can join the movement to stop the hate on campus!

Happy studying and good knowledge on your finals!

Take care, Edilynne P.

Literally meaning Happy Turkey Day, on behalf of your 2011 KA Officers, I would like to wish you all a very festive and fun Thanksgiving! Stay safe on the roads, and in the shopping malls. As we celebrate this glorious holiday with our loved ones, I urge you all to remember and reflect on the true meaning of the holiday, as well as the underlying struggles and histories. For more information on the history behind Thanksgiving, check out this video, provided to us by our very own Sheena “Chin-chin” Medina.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! :)

Left By the Ship - SDAFF 2011

Legit documentary which showed a new perspective that I was somewhat unaware of. I was enlightened and emotionally struck by the stories and lives of struggling Amerasians in the Philippines. Life is tough and we should be thankful for everything we have.

Trust your stuggle because each and everyday everyone is finding that opportunity.
