   tsaka hindi ba pangit na STAND-UP Chair ka tapos ikaw magcoconvene ng LCC? hindi ba may conflict of interest yun kahit sabihin mo pang genuine ang desire mo for service? ikaw magcoconvene ng local councils pero umaalingasaw ang pagka-bias dahil pangulo ka ng isang partido… how unfair…

   Bakit kaya nanalo si Airah na vice-chairperson kahit nakalagay sa credentials n’ya na chairperson s’ya ng STAND-UP? Bakit kaya maraming naiinggit sa maganda, matapang at matalinong babaeng ito? Ikaw Concerned CommRes student? Maganda at matalino ka ba? Hindi ko na itatanong kung matapang ka, halata naman na ayaw mo i-disclose ang pangalan mo. Isa pa, concerned ka nga ba talaga o naninira ka lang? At higit sa lahat, Comm Res ba talaga ang course mo?

   To Concerned Oxford faculty, may point naman po si Harvard Student at concerned CommRes Student. Meaning lang po nito, kelangan sobrang vigilant tayo sa moves ni Ms. Cadiongan. Her being impartial is of utmost importance.

   Airah… i hope you know what you’re doing… conflicts of interests are not good… Definitely not good especially when your job description requires you to do otherwise. Wala po bang rule na nag-ddis-allow ng ganitong situation?

   @ para sa bayan,

   Natawa ako… Kelan pa naging impartial ang vice chair, or any member of the USC for that matter? The USC is not a judicial body or a tribunal to arbitrate affairs of students. It is foremost an advocate of students rights and welfare. That alone will disqualify it from impartiality.

   to sjsanjuan:

   An officer’s loyalty and partisanship with his/her party should end when your service to the University studentry begins. How can a Stand-Up Chairperson go against her own party? Hindi po ba conflict of interest?

   Ang tanong ko lang po naman is kungyari may issue na may two sides. What if her party’s stand isn’t really what the studentry want or is detrimental to the student’s welfare? (this is just an if lang naman)… Will she vote for her party or for what majority of the students want?

   These are just thoughts that entered my mind with what Concerned Commres student said. Good day to you!

    @ para sa bayan:

    From your way of reasoning, then I guess everybody in the council should resign from their respective political parties just to give students the impression that the USC is an “impartial” body.

    If you study political dynamics, you would understand that when council members were still candidates, they were carrying the advocacies and positions of their political parties. And you can read these positions in their GPOAs, statements, posters, etc.

    Now, the assumption there is that all students know of these positions (This is a safe assumption, unless there is overwhelming evidence that students were denied knowledge of the parties’ position on issues). Given that knowledge, the students still elected these candidates to the position. It means that students believe in these candidates’ position of what students and community rights and welfare are, and what action/s and methodologies should be used to protect these rights.

    To give credit to the USC, it is a council of partisans whose respective parties have clear delineations as to what should be prioritized, how they should be addressed, who will address them, when, and why. That is so unlike the partisans in the national government whose loyalty is based, more often than not, on money and power.

    The solution is for students to be involved in University advocacies. Start an organization. Recruit like-minded people and start advocacies that you think the USC is not paying much attention to. Even if we stand diametrically opposed, I give credit to those students who coalesced in pushing for the tuition fee increase in 2007. It is an unpopular issue, and the USC made it clear that they oppose the measure. But these students stood in opposition against their own USC and voiced out their opinion. Now that’s student empowerment.

    Better yet, vote in next year’s USC elections, and ask your friends to vote. Forever silang naandyan kung hindi tumataas ang voters’ turnout.

    Yun lang po, at salamat!

    ok. atleast next time,… i will vote wisely. sana ung iba din para wala na ganyan ganyanan

    It is traditional for STAND UP to base its struggles on its comprehensive consultation with the students & the basic masses in general, coupled with critical social analysis. The party’s loyalties lie to the people. Mabuhay ka, Airah.

    sana matapos na ang website para mabasa mo ang constitution nila at house rules kasi nakakatawa ka talaga. :))

    para sa bayan ang message na yun. go Airah!

15. jo on May 24th, 2008 3:56 pm

    so what kung chair ng STAND-UP si Airah and USC vice-chair at the same time? makakaapekto ba yun negatively sa performance niya sa council? mas makakatulong nga yun kasi ang political party na pinanggalingan niya ay tunay na lubog sa theory at practice! the students gave her the mandate! huwag ninyong insultuhin ang mandatong iyon!

    so what kung siya ang magcoconvene ng LCC? she has the power to do so dahil siya ang vice-chair! ano bang mali rito? concern ba ng mga tumutuligsa na mababahiran ng “pulitika” ang LCC o concerned lang sila sa usaping ito dahil hindi sila ang mamumulitika rito?

    lahat ng bagay ay pulitikal. lahat ng bagay ay biased. pipili ka nga lang kung kanino ka papanig. kung sa tama o sa mali. kung sa inaapi o nang-aapi.

    oo nga, sana next time, ang mga ISKOLAR NG BAYAN will vote wisely para STAND-UP straight ang laging mananalo.
