Philippine Collegian Tomo 91 Issue 4 TAON 91 BILANG 4 BIYERNES, HULYO 12, 2013 PHILIPPINE COLLEGIAN Opisyal na lingguhang pahayagan ng mga mag-aaral ng Unibersidad ng Pilipinas, Diliman NOWHERE MAN Alan P. Tuazon Déjà vu THE OPENING SEQUENCE OF AN INDIE movie ended. The Film Institute was cramped with cinephiles or random movie-goers as I made my way through the dark aisle. I found a vacant seat at the last row. “These indie films become too mainstream,” a sleepy voice beside me uttered. Surprised, I looked at your direction. The darkness of the cinema concealed your face. You enthusiastically discussed the film to me as if we were friends from long ago. People were glaring at our direction. You were as much of a talker as I was. As the movie ended and the lights went on, the first thing I saw was the dimple on the right side of your face, made more prominent by your smile. We exited the theatre together. I offered you a ride home to prolong the conversation, but you refused. “What is your name?” I shouted. People were murmuring hullaballoos outside the theatre. “Ruby Tuesday,” you shouted back. “Oh, like the Rolling Stones song?” I said. You just smiled and disappeared among the crowd. I have always fallen in love with girls named after songs I love—Layla, Roxanne, Michelle, Darlene. Every year is a cycle of songs, of encounters alongside social issues. Similar concerns resurface themselves yearly: price hikes, privatization, militarization, failing grades and relationships. I saw you again last Saturday at the showing of the restored version of Maynila sa mga Kuko ng Liwanag at the UP Film Institute: after sharing a semester of countless conversations with you over fries and unlimited coffee; after finding out your name was not really Ruby Tuesday; after you just disappeared the way you did on the first night I met you. All of these fragments of images were restored in full colours the same way Maynila sa mga Kuko ng Liwanag was. Stealth mode The lights outside the theatre revealed your unchanged, talkative self with a bohemian aura. I have bulleted guesses on why you left: maybe you 8-9 Uncovering secret affairs were just too pretty, maybe you’d rather read your existentialist novels, or maybe you loved Bob Dylan more than you loved me. After ranting about Bianca Gonzales’ indifference to informal settlers and the inane changing of the Philippines to Filipinas, you suddenly grew quiet and became aware of the elephant in the room. Artist groups call for release Code Red: A Closer Look Tala-Ngalan: A fine-looking girl walked in and hugged you. Isang Pagmumulintuklas “My girlfriend,” you told me.

  • The Oblation Ritualized
    From the Sacred to the Profane: The Oblation Ritualized FROM THE SACRED TO THE PROFANE: THE OBLATION RITUALIZED Reuben Ramas Cañete ABSTRACT The study approaches the historical construction of the narratives surrounding the statue titled Oblation, deemed as the symbol of the University of the Philippines (UP), from the theoretical perspective of Eric Hobsbawn’s notion of “invented traditions,” as well as Judith Butler’s theory of performativity. The study looks at the genesis of this narrative as informed by the anti-colonial struggle of the late-19th and early 20th century, but amplified and “sacralised” through the symbolic power of the UP Presidency, particularly under Jorge C. Bocobo (1935-1939) under whose auspices the Oblation was erected on November 30, 1935. The study also foregrounds the key term “Sacrificial Body” as a determinant of the Oblation’s narrational focus of itself as subject, and its function as idealized model or template to be “followed” by the UP community. The ambivalence of this narrative, however, is central to the production of contradicting discourses throughout its history, from the “sacred” Pre-War image akin to a secular Crucifixion upon which rituals supervised by a “priesthood” composed of the University’s officials were enacted; to the Post- War secular (and thus “profane”) image of the Oblation as that “representing academic freedom” from the viewpoint of its progressive student body and faculty. The common assertion of a sacrificial representation of anti-colonial struggle, however, is intuited by

  • (UPOU). an Explorat
    his paper is a self-reflection on the state of openness of the University of the Philippines Open University (UPOU). An exploratory and descriptive study, it aims not only to define the elements of openness of UPOU, but also to unravel the causes and solutions to the issues and concerns that limit its options to becoming a truly open university. It is based on four parameters of openness, which are widely universal in the literature, e.g., open admissions, open curricula, distance education at scale, and the co-creation, sharing and use of open educational resources (OER). It draws from the perception survey among peers, which the author conducted in UPOU in July and August 2012. It also relies on relevant secondary materials on the subject. What if you could revisit and download the questions you took during the UPCAT (University of the Philippines College Admission Test)? I received information that this will soon be a possibility. It’s not yet official though. For some people, including yours truly, this is the same set of questions that made and unmade dreams. Not all UPCAT takers make it. Only a small fraction pass the test. Some of the passers see it as a blessing. Some see it as fuel, firing their desire to keep working harder. Some see it as an entitlement — instant membership to an elite group. Whatever its worth, the UPCAT is the entryway to the University of the Philippines, a scholastic community with a unique and celebrated tradition spanning more than a century. But take heed — none of its legacy would have been possible if not for the hard work of Filipino taxpayers.
