The Saint Paul administration dwells on the Student Handbook to justify excluding students which it identified as organizers of the Mass Email Campaign (MEC).
The MEC participated by +500 students last June 19 appealed for the following: 1) academic freeze, 2) breakdown of fees, 3) refund of unused fees, 4) non-mandatory enrolment for summer term, and 5) support for teaching and non-teaching personnel.
The provisions in the Student Handbook which they allegedly violated revolved on "bringing disrepute to the name of the university".
Our freedom of expression and right to seek redress are guaranteed in the Philippine Constitution, the highest law of the land.
This is why the campaign for addressing the exclusion of 9 students in Saint Paul is not a trivial matter. It is a campaign for upholding our democratic rights.
Students will be made to cower in fear and will never break their silence on problems in the school if we'd let things pass.
This is not just for Saint Paul students. It is for every student, every citizen who trembles in fear for exercising his/her democratic right.
