The LaSallianWe Filipinos are sensitive people. However we try to disagree, a very influential part of our culture is our inherited compliance to implicit, unnamed rules. Think about it – isn’t utang na loob an unwritten law? Nonetheless, to even think of not conforming to it produces drastic consequences in the form of sama ng loob…
As the Animo System loads, the students who are lucky enough to be presented with the option have to decide whether they rather wake up early or stay up late at night.

Taft geography simply means knowing where to photocopy, park, or get a haircut and more importantly, knowing where to eat. For this busy area and its thousands of students and everyone else, it’s all about restaurants and gastronomic adventure. It’s hardly ever boring. Though some days you may be low and broke, the “food scene”…
As early as when we were frosh, we were told of his legend. “You have been warned”, so our upperclassmen would say. His reputation as a renowned scholar precedes him; so does the failure rate in his classes and the mountains of readings for his students. We have heard of his strictness, his eye for…
De La Salle University has had its fair share of producing graduates who have become industry game changers, leaders, and business pioneers, in its more than 100 years of educating Filipino students.
