The Official page of USA Publications, the Official Student Press Corps of the University of San Agustin

The University of San Agustin (USA) Publications (USA Publications, informally known as USA Pub) is the official student press corps of the University of San Agustin in Iloilo City, Philippines. Originally a high school publication of Colegio de San Agustin de Iloilo (former name of USA), it was founded on 1928 with its first recorded publication released on August 1928. It is the oldest Catholic campus publication in Asia outside Manila. The press corps publishes The Augustinian Mirror (magazine), The Augustinian (newspaper), Irong-irong (literary journal), Dingding ni Gusting (community wall newspaper), and other special issues. Today it is one of the most awarded college press corps in the Philippines. It has received its first national distinction when The Augustinian Mirror was adjudged as one of the three best-edited school magazines in the country during the late 1950s.

Beyond leadership positions, Augustinian student leaders gathered for the annual University of San Agustin Leadership Effectiveness towards Augustinian Discipleship and Service (USALEADS) Program at various university venues, September 26.

Organized by the Student Affairs and Welfare Office (SAWO), this year’s USALEADS centered on “Caritas in Action,” translating the university’s core value of Caritas into practical leadership and organizational practices.

“USALEADS is the core program of the recognized organizations under my office. Basically, it’s the start-up during the first semester and is annually conducted. Ultimately, it’s about equipping student leaders to govern not just with efficiency but with empathy, integrity, and jury,” said SAWO RSO Coordinator Jerimar Jeric M. Anatan.

A plenary orientation and context-setting session led by Anatan followed the Eucharistic Celebration, discussing the USA-SAW-F08 evaluation results and connecting identified areas for improvement to organizational belonging, communication, conflict resolution, and personal progress.

Parallel sessions then followed, tailored to participants’ roles in student organizations and covering executive leadership, legislative and judicial processes, communication, financial stewardship, elections, and faculty mentoring. | via John Lina Torilla

𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱 𝗥𝗮𝗯𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝗗𝗮𝘆

Every September 28, the world observes World Rabies Day to raise awareness of rabies, a deadly but preventable disease. This year’s theme, “Stronger Together,” highlights the importance of collaboration among communities, veterinarians, healthcare workers, and global partners in preventing rabies.

Rabies is 100% preventable and is primarily transmitted through the bites of infected animals, particularly dogs. The World Health Organization (WHO) supports vaccination and post-exposure treatment and works with partners toward “Zero by 30,” a global goal to end human deaths from dog-mediated rabies by 2030.

If bitten or scratched by an animal, wash the wound immediately with soap and water for at least 15 minutes, then seek medical care as soon as possible.

Together, we can help prevent rabies and work toward a rabies-free world. | via Nathaniel Ortega

Daily commuters nationwide will face higher transportation costs as the Department of Transportation (DOTr) lifts the suspension on previously approved fare adjustments for public utility vehicles (PUVs), effective Monday, September 28.

DOTr Secretary Giovanni Lopez signed the memorandum on September 24, making official the fare hike approved by the Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board (LTFRB) in March.

Under the new rates, the minimum fare for traditional jeepneys will increase from P13 to P14 for the first four kilometers, with modern jeepney fares rising from P15 to P17.

For ordinary Metro Manila and city buses, the minimum fare will increase from P13 to P15 for the first five kilometers, and air-conditioned buses will charge P18, up from P15.

Ordinary provincial bus fares will increase from P11 to P12 for the first five kilometers, while airport taxi fares will rise from P75 to P115 for the first 500 meters.

Point-to-point bus fares will increase by 15 percent, and TNVS fares will rise depending on vehicle type; PUV operators and drivers must display the updated fare matrix before collecting the adjusted fares, with the mandatory 20 percent discount for students, senior citizens, and persons with disabilities (PWDs) remaining in effect.

Meanwhile, transport groups Manibela and Piston are pushing through with planned transport strikes amid continued concerns over rising fuel prices, with Manibela's strike running from September 28 to 30 and Piston's scheduled for September 29 to 30. | via Nathaniel Ortega

Ihanda ang upuan, patayin ang ilaw, at hayaang magsimula ang kuwento. Ilipat ang lente sa sining na nagmumula sa sariling bakuran—sa mga pelikulang kumakapit sa maliliit na detalye, pamilyar na tanawin, at kuwentong atin.

Sa pamamagitan ng mga pagsusuri at rekomendasyon, silipin natin ang mga pelikulang naglalarawan ng iba’t ibang mukha ng pagiging Pilipino.
