UP Batangan’s ACLE this 1st
semester of AY 2019-2020 is
entitled “Experience
Clairvoyance” will be about
fortune-telling and folk-healing.
The speaker/s will introduce what
UP Batangan - UP CMC

have learned to do it, and their
experiences in their field. After
the discussion with the fortune-

the importance of utilizing the
social media platform and how to
use them effectively when
venturing into business.
In line with the theme of this
year’s ACLE, we chose
responsible vlogging as
the topic for we know that a large
portion of the students are
inclined to the usage and
subscription on social media. As
today’s generation is greatly
influenced by the age
UP GE Club - UP UPload, UPdate, UPgrade: The of technology, most especially the
Engg GE
Geodetic Engineering Primer for Responsible internet, the topic of responsible
Theater
Club Vlogging vlogging would be
of great help for not just for those
who is directly in the said field or
interested in the
field but also everyone in general
as the topic seeks to inform the
students on the
right perception in using different
social media outlet.
The knowledge about the rightful
 use of different social media outlet
means
that
since the university upholds the
virtue of continuously being aware
and sharing
awareness about current social
issues and problems, having the
knowledge of being
a responsible vlogger makes it
easier to disseminate information
to other citizens of
the Philippines outside the
university. We also want to
highlight the fact that we aim
to teach the students to share
CORRECT AND UNBIASED
information about the
emerging trends and current
issues in society.

According to the 2008 National

one out of
three pregnancies in the

shows that a large number
of women often go through
unwanted child-bearing, which is
dangerous for both
child and mother. These
unwanted pregnancies can often
be avoided through the

activists. Surprisingly, majority of
them believe that activism started
long before Christ

Subject of the talks will be cover

applications, and common
misconceptions on the said topic.
The talk is scheduled to take
place
on October 17, 2019 (Thursday),
from 1-5 PM at Melchor Hall
Room 501.
In this digital age run by social
media, public perception and
social standards have never taken
such a toll on society. Standards
that have long dictated the
concept of self-image have never
been more threatening towards
shaping the minds of our youth. In
the Philippines, having lighter
skin, taller stature and smaller
frame, these are all things that
have been shaped by years of
glorification of Eurocentric
features and corporate marketing.
However, these are all things that
CHE Gusali
are also so easily accessed and
Room C
influential to the unsuspecting
minds of, not only women, but
everyone on the internet and
social media platforms.
Recently, through feminist, social
equality and body positivity
movements, society is slowly
counteracting all these years of
deception, racial bias, and body-
shaming. This is what this talk
aims to emphasise on. How do we
as a society empower one
another and move on from this
toxic culture? How do we redefine
what it means to be beautiful?

do students stay away from the

This year, UP CAPES invites
distinguished individuals who
ventured on starting their own
businesses to share with the UP
population, especially the
engineering students, their
personal experiences with
UP CAPES - UP startups. In line with the

ACLE focuses on
entrepreneurship as a viable
career for students after

share what prompted them to start
their own businesses, the
challenges they faced along the
 way, and tips for students who
also wish to create startups in the
future. The speakers will also act
as judges for the business pitches
presented by the ACLE
participants. This business pitch
activity will be carried out so that
participants can apply what they
learned during the talks.

Last July 2019, BBC News wrote
an article about 18 months being
the time left for our planet and
how, during that time period, it will
be critical in dealing with
environmental issues. There were
a lot of threatening news
regarding the environment this
year like the Amazon Rainforest
Fire, and the hotter climate in
December. According to Hans
Joachim Schellnhuber, founder

and now director emeritus of the

climate math is brutally clear:
While the world can't be healed
within the next few years, it may
be fatally wounded by negligence
until 2020". Last 2016, the United
Nations Framework Convention
on Climate Change (UNFCCC)
signed an agreement, the Paris
Agreement that includes how
each country must think of ways
to contribute in slowing global
warming and regularly report it. It
 was considered to be the first
comprehensive agreement on
climate (CBS News, 2016).
Considering the case of the
planet, the role of the youth is to
take part in environmental action
steps to help save the Earth,
because sooner or later, these
small steps would lead to macro
effects on the planet’s future.

the common taboos are those that

include topics on sex, crime,

Educators' Circle desires to be of

giving a presentation about thrift
shopping, what is it about, and
how can it be of help to us and to
the economy. We also want to
dwell on the booming trend and
popularity of thrift shopping and
how it can connect to the current
needs of our youth today.
Furthermore, we also realize the
importance of financial literacy,

trend faced by scarcity of
resources and harder avenues to
gain income, and how thrift
shopping can serve as an
effective alternative instead of
purchasing from large department
stores and establishments. We
also aim to dwell on the benefits
of thrift shopping, how it can help
not only us but its producers as
well, and what trends can we
further expect from thrift shopping
in the future.
