i'm in college! yay! i'm sweet sixteen and now i get to know the world! -BIG word of the University of the Philippines! yay!
so you get to ask: kolehiyala? nope. iska is the right term. kolehiyala could apply to young college socialites who get to party, because they're now FREE. am i not? basically, i'm a good girl. haha. and then i'm not part of the "socialite" group. being a UP student, i ought to be doing my job. what job? studying. being aware. wahehe.
technically we're all called mga iskolar ng bayan. so much for the 300% tuition fee increase; we freshies are paying 1000php per unit! reasonable as you may say. but compared to what scholars ought to pay, we're FAKE scholars. say it's THE premier state university. so why not give MORE funds for THE University of the Philippines. it's not JUST a state university/college. it is THE country's #1 -but the FAKE administration makes us FAKE scholars by having US pay for our education.
as far as we know, education for the nation's scholars is not JUST a priviledge but a RIGHT -a right, and that means we all have to equal. what makes us freshies different from the upperclassmen? it has all been a crafty plan of the government, taking small steps toward their plans of commercializing education.
