Pride or Fried chicken?
Thinking about fast foods? Nah, we know you’re smart. You must have seen one of their posters with PUPoy, our Sintang Paaralan’s Centennial Mascot smiling wide and crazy. But what exactly is he smiling about? Well, PUPoy has every reason to rejoice. Finally, we’re seeing action for the PUPian Pride!
The PUP Young Leaders Forum
The PUP Young Leaders Forum (PUP YLF) is the brain child of the Ayala Young Leaders of PUP, who initiated the program as part of their “continuing advocacy in the name of servant leadership.” The Forum aims to awaken the sense of true, dynamic, and responsible student leadership, establish lasting network of PUP student leaders, form corroborative decision-making and critical analyses of concerns via resolution and charter building, bring forth PUP student leaders and major players and experts into a proper forum of discussion and interaction and perform ways to fulfill the commitment in the signed charter to contribute in the development of each participant in the forum.
PUPoy in You
PUPoy in You?, the first of the three fora, was held at the College of Communication Audio-Visual Room last 28th of November 2007. It was hosted by students from the College of Communication.
The participants, who were asked to submit a brief essay on What is PUPian Pride for admission, readily shared their views and perspective on various issues that boggles the PUPian, the forum revolved on the issue of PUPian Pride, and the PUPian identity. The participants readily shared their views and perspective on various issues that boggles the PUPian with questions ranging from ‘What sets a PUPian apart?’ to the much-discussed ‘Dapat bang ikahiya kung sa public school ka galling?’
To help the 24 participants present at the Forum, the PUP YLF had invited three resource speakers. Bro. Eng Si from the Kerygma Family, Mr. Ringo ‘Mr. Universe’ Borlain and MS. Kym Oliveros,a freshman from the College of Accountancy, who started a forum on Bob Ong’s Bobong Pinoy E-group, ‘Dapat bang ikahiya kung galling ka sa public school?’ [Read More]

Between Numbers and Letters:
A Feature Article on the SPECTRUM
The Official Publication of the PUP College of Engineering
“Engineering the Human Soul…”
Truly, the Spectrum’s popular catchphrase carries a colorful meaning. The PUP College of Engineering does not only teach their students how to construct structures of sophisticated magnificence but also build the edifice of pride and excellence into their hearts and minds.
The Spectrum offers these future engineers an instrument to share their thoughts and ideals and at the same time, to inform their fellow CEAns and PUPians of the hottest updates in and out of the campus. The college publication welcomes every CEAn to a world of letters in a dimension where numbers rule their lives.
Content
The Spectrum articles encompass and reflect the different realities of human life. These can be divided into the social, cultural, political, technological and scientific aspects. Articles about the bitter consequences of poverty in the lives of a PUP student and common people are the best examples of social realities exposed in their articles. Cultural calls for the preservation of Filipino traditions and customs as well as the historic places in the Philippines. Then, the political area comes up largely on the Opinion section of the newspaper where CEAns are free to speak and comment about our national leaders and the role of the youth state affairs. Finally, the technological and scientific aspect, which carries essential and the interesting part for the CEAns for this part, reveals their specialization and expertise.
The Spectrum topics concern the individual CEAn, to the college, the university up to the national issues. The newspaper tells the typical even the most unusual stories of the engineering students of their 5-year stint in the campus. In that case, serves as a venue for CEAns to share their experiences and ideologies. More than that, it serves as an instrument of communication to air the grievances of the CEAns for the College and University administration to be heard and at the same time to inform other PUPians of their accomplishments. At the national level, CEAns stay foot of the latest updates while having the opportunity to speak out of their views an suggestions regarding the most recent issues.
The Spectrum maintains its uniqueness and sets the trend when it comes to campus publication. One of these unique variation is coming up with a “Circle” page. This section make up the “barkada and gimmick” section of the paper. Here we can read and see band gigs inside the campus, students’ “trips”, and some other cool and fun stuffs.

The Prestige
They say that
the authentic “iskolar ng bayan” can be found in PUP. Blessed are those who are given a chance to pursue their college studies in our dear University. Doubly blessed are those who are studying under a scholarship program. Then came the Kapatiran ng Talino at Galing or simply KATAGA, PUP’s very own Honor’s Society.
Initially named as KATAGI (Kapatiran ng Talino at Giting) way back in 1968, this organization has proven itself to be the bastion of academic excellence and innovative leadership through the years. KATAGA’s vow to inculcate the spirit of unity among scholars is carried out through its numerous projects. The annually held Scholar’s Leadership Enhancement Training (SLET) is KATAGA’s keynote program to enhance potentials of scholars who have what it takes to effect change in various levels of the society. Another brainchild of KATAGA is the Scholar’s League of the Philippines (SLP), which is said to be the first of its kind in our country. Aside from PUP, other member schools of the SLP are RTU, PHILSCA, PNU and EARIST. KATAGA celebrates its foundation week every November. Members of KATAGA offers free tutorial lessons both for their fellow scholars and non-scholars on different subjects ranging from calculus to basic accounting. In 2005, KATAGA almost made it to the TAYO (Ten Most Outstanding Organizations) Award as they reached the NCR level for the second round of judging.
KATAGA is comprised of 2,223 academic and non-academic scholars from all colleges in our University. Orlan Tubola from the College of Engineering (CE) is the current president of
KATAGA. Mary Grace Ronquillo, a senior in the Department of Political Science and Public Administration (DPSPA), is KATAGA’s top scholar for almost two years in a row. This March, KATAGA is set to recognize its cream of the crop as well as its graduating members. KATAGA officers gleefully asserted that more activities are in line for the approaching academic year.
With such an impressive record and an upbeat outlook, the whole PUP community expects nothing but the best from its scholars.

Pride or Fried chicken?
Thinking about fast foods? Nah, we know you’re smart. You must have seen one of their posters with PUPoy, our Sintang Paaralan’s Centennial Mascot smiling wide and crazy.

The PUP Young Leaders Forum
The PUP Young Leaders Forum (PUP YLF) is the brain child of the Ayala Young Leaders of PUP, who initiated the program as part of their “continuing advocacy in the name of servant leadership.” The Forum aims to awaken the sense of true, dynamic, and responsible student leadership, establish lasting network of PUP student leaders, form corroborative decision-making and critical analyses of concerns via resolution and charter building, bring forth PUP student leaders and major players and experts into a proper forum of discussion and interaction and perform ways to fulfill the commitment in the signed charter to contribute in the development of each participant in the forum.
PUPoy in You
PUPoy in You?, the first of the three fora, was held at the College of Communication Audio-Visual Room last 28th of November 2007. It was hosted by students from the College of Communication.
The participants, who were asked to submit a brief essay on What is PUPian Pride for admission, readily shared their views and perspective on various issues that boggles the PUPian, the forum revolved on the issue of PUPian Pride, and the PUPian identity. The participants readily shared their views and perspective on various issues that boggles the PUPian with questions ranging from ‘What sets a PUPian apart?’ to the much-discussed ‘Dapat bang ikahiya kung sa public school ka galling?’
To help the 24 participants present at the Forum, the PUP YLF had invited three resource speakers. Bro. Eng Si from the Kerygma Family, Mr. Ringo ‘Mr. Universe’ Borlain and MS. Kym Oliveros,a freshman from the College of Accountancy, who started a forum on Bob Ong’s Bobong Pinoy E-group, ‘Dapat bang ikahiya kung galling ka sa public school?‘
Bro. Eng Si and Mr. Borlain shared their experience as alumni of PUP, and the hassles and bustles that they faced inside and outside the campus, and gave interesting advices. “Commit to excellence” press Bro. Eng Si who is proud of his PUPian heritage. While Mr. Borlain recounts how he landed his current job as a Physical Education at the College of St. Benilde. He told the participants, “Other may have all the brains, all the money, but at the end of the day, it is the PUP graduate that delivers and gets the job done.” Ms. Kym Oliveros gave the perspective of still struggling freshman who wonders what to do with the stigma people have on PUPians. At the end of the forum, the participants were given graphic of PUPoy and were ask to color the black-and-white poster. Each one scribbled a few lines of what really is a PUPian Pride.
