For teachers, I would say most of them are really hard working and truly care for their students. But of course, there are still professors who are always absent and let's you study on your own. It's alright, we're in college! As for the facilities, computer laboratory is working fine. There's a library where you can study quietly, or just a place where you can spend your time. There's also an auditorium where most of the events are held. It has it's own church, and wide field. My only concern about the facilities are the restrooms, canteens, and some student lounge. Since there's a lot of student in PUP, restrooms are definitely used a lot more often and there's only few janitors to clean them. So as expected, restrooms are very dirty and smelly. And since the rooms are open, those rooms who are beside the restrooms have to endure all the smell coming from it. Last but not the least, we shouldn't forget the house of mabini located inside of the campus. It was a good sight but unfortunately I haven't seen inside of it. I would love to see it before I graduate though.

    I am not reviewing PUP for its education, but for its historical importance. POP QUIZ: How many of…read moreyou have actually been inside PUP? Shame on you. The PUP Campus in Sta Mesa is actually one of the most gorgeous campuses in Metro Manila. As somebody who went to UP for college and kinda hung around Ateneo during that span of time, that's saying a lot. But it's true! Just look at my pics! The campus is freaking gorgeous. The fact that this beauty is lost even to its own students kinda rankles me, but what can you do? PUP is also the current location of the Mabini Shrine, which was the ancestral home of Apolinario Mabini. PUP is also the only campus that has its own PNR and Ferry stations. Lucky bastards.

It is...none other than...*drum roll* BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN ASTRONOMY! Seriously, I would expect this major, let alone an entire department to open first in University of the Philippines (where the PAGASA observatory is--cool place beeteedubs, check it out), or Ateneo (where another observatory is) or a La Salle in the farthest reaches of the country just because they can afford it (man, me and my sibs' tuition fees probably totalled in the millions! And we're just three students!) But for it to open FIRST in a university one bus ride and jeepney away from me? Time really froze for a moment there. If there is a rewind time button, can I just try for this major, please? RTU has definitely upped Philippines' astronomy game by so much through producing graduates holding the degree from this new major. I am seriously excited for the generation who will be getting in this program. Who knows, maybe in a decade (or less), we will have a separate nationwide recognized agency focusing in aerospace technology and space exploration, like JAXA (Japan), ESA (Europe), ROSCOSMOS (Russia), and of course (more obviously) NASA! And Filipinos will not only dominate the white collar and blue collar industries in the world. They will also dominate the bluejumpsuit agencies as well! (See what I did there?) Now that we're in the subject of astronomy, did I mention that the University also offers post-graduates studies and a masteral degree of Astronomy too? I am just...holding out a squee here!

    Ahh college. I don't…read moremean to be in any way biased but I won't be able to help it since I will be talking about my Alma Mater, the De La Salle-College of Saint Benilde. Now I wouldn't be able to tell you every single detail of my student life here, because that would be too long and baby's got to catch some sleep. Anyway, I took Consular and Diplomatic Affairs here and I have loved every waking moment of it--from the General Education courses to the major ones, to Model United Nations programs to the Model United Nations simulations, to the long breaks spent in the cafeteria, to the fact that I have slept countless times in the library (if you spent the whole night reading 50 pages, you will surely need to catch on some zzz anytime during the day). If you are looking to study here, the best courses to try are: 1. Hotel, Restaurant and Tourism Management 2. Consular and Diplomatic Affairs, of course 3. Fashion Design 4. Multimedia Arts See you, future Benildean!

Security is hella tight, understandably, but once you've gotten past the hi-tech turnstiles, inside it's a pretty humble affair. It's a lot of white paint and concrete, which can feel a little cold and sterile, but they manage to make it feel pretty airy and open, which is important since the smog of Taft Ave. lies just outside of it. They could probably do with a little more foliage though. I can't say much about them, but the facilities look excellent. Coming from a humbler university, one can just be thankful sometimes for working air conditioning and a clean, well-kept bathroom. That the floors don't all necessarily match between buildings is confusing but amusing at the same time. The cafeteria's ceiling is a little low, but I do appreciate that they promote self-bussing and have water fountains all over the place. Then again, the people here have so many options to eat outside anyway. I'm surprised that for a school with quite expensive education, the main campus itself is pretty simple and modest (the SDA is another story entirely though, and while I haven't been to it, I'm sure the CSB Hotel and SHRIM campus would be a little more glittery).

I took one course here as a summer cross-enrollee for Art Appreciation and found out that their Fine Arts program was one of the best in Metro Manila, if not, the country. The students are very nice and despite being one of the eldest in the class, the kids were mature enough to accept each other. The teachers were understanding and allowed me to be late or miss some classes because I had mother duties or work. The staff was accommodating although the guards never believed I was a student in the first place. For motor bikers and bikers, they have a small space outside dedicated to the parking of bikes and motorcycles. The library was my refuge and I loved working in its aircon and wi-fi decked out space. I'd work (sleep) in their lib for hours. Although the facade is quite traditional (although pegged as modern architecture), their courses are very nuvo and very in-depth. One star less because they haven't shifted their academic calendar yet so such a headache to cross-enroll after June.

In a society like the Philippines, which is both Asian and conservative, one would imagine that women are not as empowered as in other developed countries. However, when one considers that the Philippines usually ranks higher than most Asian countries in terms of giving opportunities to women, and that many educated women do make it into business and managerial positions in the country, one has to really look into the phenomenon. That aside, the university still is built on its classical foundation and its hallways still tell the mark of age, but that isn't to say that it's not keeping up with the times! In the curriculum, various programs have expanded into fields such as international relations or social development (in fact, I attended one such seminar there), and the faculty and staff are quite kind and accommodating. It was truly a delight to be in such a place, and reminds one of the time that passes by without notice.
