Ateneo, protect your students now!
person ThePILLARS Publicationcalendar_month April 21, 2024For decades, Ateneo de Naga University (AdNU) has ingrained Ignatian teachings to its students such as living life with love and purpose, especially for the lost, the marginalized, and the vulnerable. Most of our student leaders and campus journalists have long been diligent in practicing these values outside the four corners of the classroom by actively joining movements and fighting for what is just. However, living a principled and mass-oriented life under an oppressive regime can pose a challenge, particularly to the outspoken youth who fearlessly reveal the truth. The realities faced by the current generation of Ateneo student leaders and campus journalists prove that today’s Marcosian rule does not fall far from its patriarch’s repressive measures back in the 70s’.

Dilaw, Asul, Puti, Pula: Ta(y)o ang Pinta
person ThePILLARS Publicationcalendar_month February 26, 2025Dilaw ang representasyon ng transpormasyong sumulong tungo sa paglaya mula sa kamay ng diktadurya. Ito ang siyang kulay na umibabaw sa pulang danak, sa marka ng karahasan at sa pang-aabuso ng kapangyarihan. Malimit kung ito’y iniuugnay sa mukha ng noong biyuda na si Corazon Aquino, asawa ng pinaslang na dating Senador Ninoy Aquino Jr. Gayunpaman, ang ugnayang ito ay pawang hibla lamang ng dilaw na sagisag na iwinagayway sa lansangan ng EDSA. Ang tunay na naghibla ng kayo’t bandila ay ang lakas-pwersa ng mga nagngangalit na patalsikin ang pamilyang nagtaksil sa bayan.
