All souls relieved, all goals remembered

After a series of doubts, trials, and breakdowns, Tamaraws survived the first half of the semester. As the dreaded midterm season came to an end, we were left with realizations to learn from and new chances to grab—using Undas as the chance to ponder upon another set of goals. 

#TAMFlix: Kilabot sa Lamig

Handa ka na bang makaramdam ulit ng mga kaluluwa at makakita ng kakaiba ngayong Buwan ng Katatakutan? Sa lamig ng simoy ng hangin at sa bawat ihip nito, kaakibat ang kilabot na nararamdaman ng bawat isa ngayong Araw ng mga Patay. Hindi makaliligtaan na nariyan ang mga nagsusulputan at nagsisilabasang mga dekorasyon, mga sabi-sabi ng mga matatanda, at mga palabas na gigimbal sa’yo.

Handog ng #TAMFlix ang mga pelikulang Pilipino na maaaring maging rason ng iyong takot at magpatitindig ng iyong mga balahibo. Kaya naman, humanda nang yakapin ang isa’t isa dahil iisa-isahin natin ang mga Kilabot sa Lamig.

Capped in Controversy: Batch 2027 TamNurses’ bittersweet ceremony

The air was filled with anticipation as Batch 2027 student-nurses gathered at the Far Eastern University (FEU) Main Auditorium for the 70th Capping and Candle Lighting Ceremony last October 19. Dressed in their crisp white uniforms, they prepared to receive their nursing caps and light candles, honoring the profession’s time-honored tradition. However, as the ceremony began, what should have been a moment of triumph for many began to illuminate the cracks beneath the surface.

A Wheel to Provide: Painting hope, conquering hunger together

When art and an advocacy to serve the community unite, they create a passion-driven masterpiece made by collaboration. Far Eastern University’s (FEU) Institute of Architecture and Fine Arts (IARFA) and Rise Against Hunger Philippines (RAHP) aim to raise awareness about fighting against hunger through painting and volunteering. This collaboration launched Jeepney Soup Kitchen and ready to hit the road where needed, it was unveiled to trailblaze its outreach and community service journey. 

‘What Makes A Teacher, A Teacher?’ 

During high school, in every hallway, you’ll hear ‘Salamat’ by Yeng Constantino on repeat to honor the teachers in light of the celebration of Teacher’s Day. In Far Eastern University (FEU), faculty members are greeted by Tamaraws to show appreciation for giving quality education. From the songs we sing and the praises we give, how do we know what makes our teacher a teacher? 

Homecoming of a Tam: Member-turned officer Relevo performs once again

In the prestigious auditorium of the green-and-gold community, the sound of drums echoes as the Far Eastern University Drums & Bugle Corps (FEU-DBC) provides a performance driven by passion and perseverance. On its comeback to the stage, assistant artistic director Koowie Ison Relevo was given the chance to play and share his passion for music and experience. The concert that took place at the FEU Main Auditorium mesmerized not just the Tamaraw community, but also alumni and guests last September 28. 

Searching for Owen: Hope cannot disappear  

As environmentalist Rowena ‘Owen’ Dasig’s disappearance goes beyond its one-month mark, her family, friends, and human rights advocates alike continue to tread the green path of hope in their keen search for her buried traces, resisting the state’s lurking shadow.

Bagsakan: Punla ng militarisasyon sa isinasapribadong kanayunan ng SJDM

Isang paraan bilang pagkondena sa pagmamalupit sa mga magsasaka ang kolektibong pagbubungkal ng lupa, partikular para sa mga Bagsakan farmer ng San Jose del Monte (SJDM), Bulacan. Ngunit sa patuloy na banta at presensya ng 80th Infantry “Steadfast” Battalion ng Philippine Army (IBPA), tila inaani ang kaliwa’t kanang paglabag ng karapatang pantao sa gitna ng patuloy na pagsasapribado ng munting lungsod.

Countdown of Rights: Call to register, votes as answers 

For every year that passes—may it be a presidential, legislative, or local unit election—one is given a responsibility to bestow his vote for a leader. This act serves as a declaration that can collectively influence the status of our state by providing awareness and the freedom of choice. As the filing of candidacy approaches, a call for registration must be taken to heart as a way to listen to the clamor of those in need and those who aspire for greater change. 

Brewing since 2014: Cafe Alfredo eyes to open new beginnings

Each Tamaraw can attest that ‘Hell weeks’ consist of coffee, cramming, and deadlines, which is why a few new coffee pubs have emerged around Far Eastern University (FEU). However, one café simply remains as “the OG.” Now celebrating a decade of tasteful service, Café Alfredo plans to open a new spot for the community to enjoy.
