Hot off the Grill: The USC and CMC-SC candidates' face-off

The candidates for this year's University and college-wide elections had the chance to present themselves to the students of the College of Mass Communication this afternoon during 'Hot Off the Grill' a candidates's forum presented by the UP Mass Communicators' Organization.

UNIVERSITY-WIDE
Since I was not able to attend the meeting-de-avanse held at my dormitory, the Ipil Residence Hall, I was craving to meet these candidates. Though I was really not expecting these three political parties to be in there, all the time I thought it was only the college-based candidates who will face it off, so I wore a blue top.

Anyway, it cannot be denied that the CMC is a red-dominated college. Almost all the students herein are active with national and university issues that affect students. And maybe because the STAND-UP has a college-based party in CMC.

Alyansa, Kaisa, and STAND-UP had their own gimmicks in presenting their platforms and their slate. STAND-UP's platforms revolve mostly on the issues and I was not able to decipher their plans straightly unlike the two parties. I just found out their offers by reading their leaflets of GPOA.

Alyansa had most of their councilors present while Kaisa had the least number of attendees to the event. I am still not decided whom to vote for but one thing for sure, my ballot will be of mix parties and I won't stick to only one party.

COLLEGE-BASED
Interdependent Student Activism or ISA and the Student Alliance for the Advancement of Democratic Rights in UP- CMC have battled it up for the CMC-SC. The debate was great, it was indeed HOTTT!
I already have my Chairperson, however I still do not have a Vice Chairperson just as yet. My ballot for this will include candidates from the two parties and will not stick to one. I believe that some people in the other party deserve to win.

I have to give merit to the both party for giving us a nice show and it was indeed enlightening. I learned more about the politics within the college, the personalities of these peoples, and the college itself.

I just have to decipher more if these people deserve the positions they are aiming to have.

DeMolay Election

     I still cannot believe it that it went so smooth, at all. Three new lights were figuratively lighted up during today's DeMolay election at Lodge Number 56 in Dagupan City.

    I will just go directly at the election part. The first nominee for Master Councilor was Bro. David Resultay who was nominated by Bro. Jonathan Tolin. Then I was nominated by Bro. Recto Castro. I declined and rejected the nomination. Therefore making Bro. David as the automatic Master Councilor.

     Bro. Marco and Bro. Daniel was nominated for SC. Bro. Daniel won over Bro. Marco with an overwhelming 18 votes over 5. Bro. Daniel pointed out fund raising activities for the chapter.

     I ran for the Junior Councilorship because of the nomination made by Bro. Marlorn. I was a bit prepared with the speech I delivered in front of the PMCs, members of the advisory council, and the brethren. I pointed out that DeMolay Pangasinan will be properly managed internally and externally through proper human resource management. And that we need to answer and be part of the call of our chapter Dad to raise the number of attendees at the lodge and the petitioners. 15 brethren voted for me, seven for Bro. Recto, and four for Bro. Jonathan.

    Bro. Marco won over Bro. Vaughn for Treasurership which is held for two terms. He got 15 votes over seven, while one brethren abstained.

    The Commission of Election who took care of the process of selecting the next leaders of the lodge were: Chairman Bro. Gener Marquez, and the members were Bro. Raymond Berza PMC, Bro. Mark Cabugao, and Bro. Reynald Vivora.

Short thanks


I wanted to express my sincerest thanks to all the people who have been so supportive all throughout the campaign period and to all the intelligent voters of MANGALDAN. I am so happy because even if I sacrificed my summer class, (which is optional for UP students) it is worth it.
