Be there when it happens.
As De La Salle University’s official student publication, The LaSallian is accountable to the students.
The LaSallian, as a completely student-run publication, is a training ground for professional, competent, and responsible journalists.
Through its news, stories, photographs, illustrations, and perspectives, The LaSallian represents and fights for the rights and welfare of the students.
As The LaSallian’s news arm, the University section serves as a truth bearer that relentlessly sheds light on DLSU and national matters. Whether through daring on-ground coverages, eye-opening investigative work, or intriguing news features, the University section amplifies one’s mission to be there when it happens.
Grounded in Filipino culture and society, the Menagerie is the publication’s features section that explores the strange in the familiar and champions the quiet in the loud. We write about people and phenomena celebrated and forgotten, from the margins of society and at the hearts of communities.
The LaSallian‘s Sports section extends beyond the view of the casual fan, diving deeper into the history and ongoing narratives behind collegiate, national, and international sports alike. We help bring the Lasallian community closer to the action and the tireless grind of the teams and athletes who proudly represent the Green-and-White both on and off the court.
Beyond the seemingly intricate nature of science and technology, Vanguard investigates how these fields impact everyday life, science-related policies, and societal issues. We produce content that incorporates experts’ insights, the latest scientific news, and stories from the public, making it accessible for our audience.
Intermedia is the video production team behind the publication’s reels and videos. From interviewing persons of interest, journalistic scriptwriting, filming on the ground, and editing the final product to breathe in new life into the stories that Lasallians should learn about today.
We are the section that captures the heartbeat of our community; producing visuals that are relevant to current events is our craft. The LaSallian’s Photo section is here to deliver snapshots that matter to our audience.
Art & Graphics is the creative heart of The LaSallian that breathes life into complex stories through the visual mastery of colors and line work. This section takes on the responsibility of crafting captivating visuals for articles, event highlights, comics, and editorial cartoons.
Layout is the graphic design center of the publication. Staffers work all around the clock to produce a range of creative posters, structured infographics, and detailed broadsheets to make sure news stays engaging and informative.
With the world at their fingertips, the Web section—comprising copywriters, designers, and developers—bridges the gap between traditional print and the digital realm. As the backbone of our digital presence, they masterfully plan out our content strategy and skillfully design and develop websites that elevate the publication’s storytelling to new heights.
Undergraduate students from the Manila and Laguna campuses are allowed to apply; senior high school students are not allowed to apply.
You may apply for two sections, but there must be a preferred one. You are also allowed to back out from one of your choices.
For all applicants, please prepare a laptop or any digital device together with a paper and pen.
For Art & Graphics and Intermedia animator applicants, please bring your drawing materials, whether digital or traditional. For Layout applicants, bringing a laptop with your preferred layout software is required.
