In the face of any change, NTe remains constant from its avowed Mission as the COUlltry's pioneering educational institution that reaches out to the marginal group by keeping the tuition feeaffordablewithout sacrificing the quality of education. This vision is, likewise, supported by the current Administration. With the tagline: ''Simple

beginnings; Remarkable Endings', the AC Education holds a lot of promise for the NTC community. As dted in Mr. Alfredo Ayalas message, the Administration envisioned the school to be the top college with the aim of delivering both good quality and affordable education which produces industry-ready professionals, and with good quality comes the important variables in play: strengthened school personnel, equipped learning fadlities and upgraded laboratories for the 21st century learners, and heightened security and administrative processes to ensure the safety and quick office transactions in the Institution. In 2019, there have been noises heard within the walls of the campus; these were the sound of the major renovation projects and the clamor of the students as

regards the tuition fee increase. It was during the 3rd Kapehan session held on March 28 when the Fiat Inx asked the admins about the renovation in the Main Building. Kapehan is a table meeting organized bytheAdministrative staffand Dr. Ma Elma Cordero, Head of the Office of the Student Affairs, uniting all student leaders where they were able to be vocal as to their concerns, suggestions, and recommendations with regard to the issues discussed in the meeting. Ms. Rosalie Dimaano, Executive Vice President (EVP) for Finance, Administration, and Students' Services, affirmed a budget estimate of more than PHp. 500 million prior to the renovation project. According to her, the Administration invested on a lO-year bank loan to subsidize the initiatives of the First Phase in its Three-Phase Development Plan. It can be noted that the First Phase is for the enhancement in school personnel, fadlities, and academic processes and systems. Moreover, the EVP mentioned about the priority of these upgrades were primarily on the safety and security enhancements. However, with the ongoing renovation projects comes the assumption of the students in line with the schools application for

tuition hikes. The clamor brought about the students worried for the renovations to be reason behind the proposed increases. On a consultation meeting happened on February 26, Dr. Jennifer Buen, Assodate Vice President (AVP) for Finance, proposed a 3% tuition fees increase which will also help to fund the initiatives of the Administration. Nonetheless, according to her, the increases will be implemented upon the approval of the Commission on Higher Education (CHEd). As these profits will help the Administrations key initiatives; therefore, all are intended for establishing the schools foundation for greater heights in providing a wider access to quality education. In this regard, we, as students need not to criticize in a negative perspective; instead, we should all be optimistic as to the Administration's plans for the betterment of our Institution. With these major renovation projects, an emerging culture of receptiveness to innovation prompts NTC to move forward and to stay relevant in the ever-changing world These changes will fOrtify not only the schools infrastructure but also strengthen its integrity and its culture, enabling to pursue a shared purpose of the Administration

Through The Lens Out of the blue, a former student of mine from APEC SchoolsPateros, where I spent myoff-campus practice teaching journey; sent me a message through Facebook Messenger saying, "Can you give

me an advice on what I can do to improve myself?" It took me a few minutes to respond because I struggle with it, too, just as how I try to fight with my daily struggles and be productive. Truth be told, I was never the type of person who gives pieces of advice to someone, but I realized how important to give one because she looks up to me. As I type my cliche answers, I looked back on how I got this far. Reminisdng my early college days in NTC: an irregular student with no friends; no one to share my five-hour break time, no one to tell how my classes went. Although I wasn't completely alone in my first two years, there are just no permanent friends to be with. I have no motivation to attend my classes to the point that I almost flunked all the subjects and exceeded the allowed number of absences. I even spent most of my days being exdted to go home. As I enter my third year, still with no sense of belongingness, I managed to find company when I took my majors. Meanwhile, I am still disconnected to the people around me, until I joined the school publication. Various positions were

I was assigned to cover an event of the Social Sdence Department. As expected, the results of my taken images were either dark or blurry. Alongside was the social anxiety which makes it hard for me to be in front and find a decent spot to take pictures. I even misplaced the cap of the lens and did not even bother to return the camera in its bag. It'ssafeto say that I failedmyfirst assignment. Comparing myself from my first day to what I've had in the after numerous experiences - from battling the weather, regardless of the heat and rain, thirst and sweat, shaking legs from hunger, and editing more or less 500 pictures, I can attest that the responsibility of being a Photographer, then a Photojournalist in Fiat Inx has shaped me as to who I am today. Fiat has made me eager, responsible, and confident. Fiat has unlocked things that were never present to me, things that I also applied when I became a student teacher. These values contributed in my growth, not just as a student but also as a hurnan being. As Ileavemybeloved school,my fuur-cornered haven will be gone, too. But its shine will never cease as long as there arelamplighters.

These were Discovery Elementary School, Arlington Career Center for High School Vocational Subjects, and Oakridge Elementary School, where they were exposed to

different learning environments. From these schools, she observed that the students were very active and responsive in learning. In addition, the usage of gadgets and advanced technologies as teaching materials are observed, and the traditional teaching materials such as flashcards, charts, and diagrams are still in use where the students are equipped with effective learning. With these techniques, strategies, and methods presented at the US Study Program, Mrs. Ruzol took this as an opportunity to learn more about the enhanced educational technology which will also be beneficial for the College.

There are times when I want to give up. When nobody cares to cheer me up; When nobody wants to talk to me sincerely. Oh, I wouldn't forget how they ruined me! Insecurity made me believe that I should strive harder to live; Soon, Iwill reveal the new me, One who's self-assured and free. "You've changed!" so you say. You're ready to talk me, but no way! My sweet revenge isyet to come as my innerself channels this warm welcome!

My word isyour instrument, used as bullet, that wears down my defenses, making me unsafe. You said all men are liars, as it is in your culture, while I'm not one of them--because I'm a bad liar.

For once, I thought that one purge was enough, As it had been in the holocaust; That a man may soon forget to laugh when things would go uncertain and rough. In times when the youth calls out for a life of freedom and sanity, they caterwaul without a pausemarching with a purpose.

Thishas been the realness of realitywhere the humankind has the power, regardless of age and status, to condemn atrocity.

A midnight thought; I let out a deep sigh. To the vast, serene of nothingness I always get along just fine. As the clock ticks, I have this thought to ponder: ''How do I get rid of regrets?" They play tricks on my mind. Then, I asked myself again: 'When willi overcome these thoughts?" Instead, Ijust closed my eyes; Wishing I didn't end my time.

Kultura at Paskuhan, ipinagdiwang ng mga NTCian nina H.J. Cuanan at CA. Rasco

Isang selebrasyong handog ng NTC Student Government (SG) ang Kultura at Paskuhan noong ika-19 ng Disyembre, 2018. Ito ay may temang "Pamana ng Nakaraan, Regalo ng Kasalukuyan" na sumasalamin sa makulay at magarbong pagdiriwang ng mga Pilipino tuwing sasapit ang kapistahan.

"Minabuti ng aming organisayon na mag-isip ng bagong konsepto upang makapaghatid ng kasiyahan at makabagong karanasan sa mga mag-aaral", ani ni G. Daryl Dela Cruz, Business Manager ng SG at tagapangasiwa ng Kultura at Paskuhan. Unang ipinatikim noong ika-12 ng Disyembre, 2018 ang pagdiriwang sa pagtatanghal ng mga lumahok sa Indayog. Ang mga mananayaw ay may isang musika lamang na ginagamit sa isang mainit na paghataw at pag-indak. Ginanap ang pagtatanghal mula ika-9 n.u. hanggang ika-ll n.t. sa Science Quadrangle. Noong ika-14 ng Disyembre, 2018, sabay na binuksan ang dalawang patimpalak: Una ang Parol making na ipinagmalaki ng bawat departamento sa pagiging malikhainiginawad ang unang karangalan sa Math; ikalawang karangalan sa Tropang Rizalista; at, ikatlong karalangalan sa Science; Ikalawa ay SiLKa (Sining na Likhang Kamay) na binubuo ng mga kalahok na mula COE (BSEd at BEEd), CAS, CHTM, at CAB na naglalayong ipamalas ang kani-kanilang pagkamalikhain sa pamamagitan ng paggamit ng recycled materials upang makalikha ng isang bagay, at sa paghulog ng piso sa kahon ng napiling likhang kamay ang naging basehan sa hinirang na nanalo. Nasungkit ng BEEd ang unang karangalan, ang CAS sa ikalawang karangalan, at BSEd sa ikatlong karangalan. Ang mga nalikom na pera mula rito ay gagamiting pondo sa pagbili ng mga kagamitan ng Blue Bearers Team na ating kinatawan sa NAASCU. Pormal na sinimulan ang programa noong ika-19 ng Disyembre, 2018 sa pamamagitan ng matinding paghataw sa sayawan ng mga piling mag-aaral mula SHS. Ang lalong nagpainit sa gabi ng mga NTCian ay ang pagtanghal ng mga kalahok sa Indayog. Ito ay pinangunahan ng RCYTechnoSciMat-

ics, Sanlahi Sindayog Dance Troupe, Soksayaw Dance Troupe, Bagwis, at Niyugyugan Dance Troupe. Ang Indayog ay hinango sa sinaunang salita ng Timog Katagalugan na tumutukoy sa bilis ng tunog na magsisilbing kagamitan sa musika upang makapagbigay ng kasiyahan at kasaganahan sa pagsasayaw. Isinagawa ang Indayog upang maipakita ang kooperasyon at matibay na samahan ng bawat departamento tungo sa inaasam na tagumpay. Pinakamaindayog sa lahat ang Sanlahi Sindayog Dance Troupe nang sila ang hiranging kampeon ng Indayog at tumanggap ng premyong nagkakahalagang PHp 3,000; RCYTechnoSciMatics sa ikalawang puwesto na tumanggap ng PHp 2,000; at, Bagwis sa ikatlong puwesto na tumanggap ng PHp 1,000. Taos puso namang ipinaramdam ang diwa at tunay na kahulugan ng Pasko nang ihandog ng Archangel Chorale ang Christmas Medley bilang panimula ng sumunod na programa - ang Paskuhan. Hindi nagpahuli ang mga kalahok ng Himig Tanglaw na tunay na kinagiliwan ng mga NTCian. Ang unang karangalan pagdating sa kantahan ay ang Psych orale; ikalawang karangalan ay ang Metronotes; at, ikatlong karangalan naman ay ang Sirens. Sa bandang dulo ng programa ay inanunsyo ang mga nagsipagwagi sa NTC Station ID, kung saan ipinakita ng bawat grupo ang simbolo ng pagmamahal at pagkakaisa sa pamamagitan ng paggawa ng Music Video tulad ng ginagawang "Christmas Station ID" ng mga kilalang TV networks na

ABS-CBN at GMA. Ang unang karangalan ay nakamit ng Filipino Department; ang ikalawang karangalan ay nakamit ng Tropang Rizalista; at, ang ikatlong karangalan naman ay ang Science Department. Ito ay patunay lamang na hindi nagpapahuli ang mga NTCian pagdating sa iba't ibang aspeto ng pagtatanghal. Habang lumalalim ang gabi, kapansin-pansin na lalong ginanahan ang mga mag-aaral dahil sa espesyal na panauhin. Pinatibok ang puso ng mga NTCian sa pag-awit ni G. Argee Guerrero na kilala sa tawag na I Belong To The Zoo. Kaniyang itinanghal ang mga kantang Porter, Courage, Game of Question, Balang Araw at ang pinakapopular na kanta nitong Sana na sinabayan ng mga NTCian. Naging matagumpay ang programang ito kaya't taos-puso ang pasasalamat ng SG sa mga aktibong lumahok sa Kultura at Paskuhan. "Tatoo nga na ang kultura ay pamana ng nakaraan,

at regalo sa kasalukuyan dahil sa ipinakitang kagandahan at kahalagahan nito mula sa sayaw, musika, at iba pang aspeto, nabigyang buhay rin ang kultura dahil halos mamatay na tayo sa impluwensya ng modernisasyon."

Lupos, Team Leader; Mark Adam Hu-Amar, Charles Philip Pintuan, Wilmer Ray Nabung, AIdhen Rizal Bitara, Ashley Gomez, Jasper Jan Palma, Claire Anne Dela Cruz, Michael Mindo, at Patrick Besmonte na kapwa mula CIT. Sila ay hinubog at sinanay ni G. John Clement Escobanez, propesor ng ating institusyon. Kung ito man ay mabubuo at mapaghuhusay, malaking tulong ang maibibigay nito para sa mga mag-aaral upang maiwasan ang insidente ng bullying hindi lamang sa paaralan kundi sa ating komunidad.

"Whyshould we be limited?" Isang makahulugang tanong na bumuo sa isipan ng mga nag-

sipagdalo sa palihan ng Samahan ng Ikatlong Salinlahi (SIS) hinggil sa Gender Awareness, Inclusivity, and Equality na may temang "Gender Sensitivity" na ginanap noong ika-17 ng Disyembre 2018, sa Lecture Room. Layunin ng palihan na bigyang linawangfbatlbanguring sekswalidad at gender roles maging ang mga isyu't suliraning kinahaharap ng LGBTQ+ Community sa makabagonghenerasyon. Batid ng panauhing tagapagsalitang si G. Robert Peter Ancheta, isang talk show host sa DWDD Katropa Radio, na hindi dapat limitahan ang isang indibidwal ayon sa kaniyang sekswalidad. Marapat na tingnan ang tinataglay nitong potensyal at kapasidad pagdating sa tungkulin at gampanin sa kaniyang mundong ginagalawan. Dagdag pa niya, "Sexism cre-

ates bias, it exists among men and

women. It also does not respect an individual according to his or her aspirations" Tinalakay rin ni G. Ancheta ang usap- I ing stereotyping na kumukondena sakarapatang pantao. Ani niya,

"Kinakahon tayo nito (stereotyping) sa misconception dahil kung ganito ka, ito lang ang kaya mong gawin:' Ang stereotypingayisangparaanng panghuhusga nang walang sapat na impormasyon tungkol sa (mga) tao 0 anumang gawi nito. Ang ganitong uri ng diskriminasyon ay lubhang nakaaapekto sa tao partikular na sa mga miyembro ng LGBTQ+. Ngunit sa kabila nito, may mga programang isinasagawa ang ibat ibang organisasyon, tulad ng

na programa ng SG. Ang Valentines Day 0 Araw ng mga Puso ay ang pagdiriwang ng kapistahan ni San Balentino, isang patron ng mga magkakasintahan. Ginaganap ang kapistahan tuwing ika-14 ng Pebrero. Dito ipinahihiwatig ng mga magkakasintahan, mag-aasawa, at magkakapamilya ang pagmamahal sa isa'tisa sa pamamagitan ng pagpapadala ng mga bulaklak, kard, o tsokolate. Ang pagmamahal ay isa sa pinakamakapangyarihang kasangkapan upang makamtan ang respeto at pagtanggap ng mga taong nasa paligid mo. Ito ay isa sa mahalagang utos ng Diyos; at higit sa lahat, ito ay susi rin para sa maaliwalas at mapayapang pagsasamahan ng mga tao sa lipunan. SIS,na nagtatanggol sa karapatang pantao hindi lamang para sa kasapi ng LGBTQ+ kung 'di maging sa ikabubuti rin ng lahat. Ito ang unang gawain na isinagawa ng SIS sa NTC.

Ponce sa madla kasabay ng adbokasiya niya sa pagpapalawak ng Gender Equality, Inclusivity, Tolerance, at Acceptance. Hindi man siya pinalad na maiuwi ang korona ng nasabing patimpalak, nakuha naman niya ang malaking respeto ng mga tao. Para na tin siyang nanalo dahil ang gusto lamang niya ay makarntan ang pagtanggap na hindi lamang sa kanya kundi salahat ng miyembro

Lumipas ang mga araw at nagiba ang ihip ng hangin. Ang mga ninanais kong kurso sa kolehiyo kagaya ng doktor ng medisina, at journalism ay napalitan ng propesyon ng pagtuturo. Hindi ko man hinangad na maging guro subalit natutunan ko naman itong pag-aralan sa pagdaan ng panahon. Ang unang taon ko sa NTC ay

naging mahirap dahil sa dami ng units na kailangang makuha. Aral dito, aral doon, makapasa lamang sa inaasam na scholarship. Sa ikalawang taon narnan sa kolehiyo ay mas lalo pang nadagdagan ng units at major subjects. Pinili kong magpakadalubhasa sa asignaturang Biological Science dahil napaka-challenging nitong pagaralan.

ito. Patunay nita ang aking mga naging karanasan kung gaano kahirap maging isang guro. Ang aking mga natutunan mula on at off-campus ay siguradong tatatak sa aking isipan magpakailanman. Mas lalo kong naintindihan kung bakit pagtuturo ang tinahak kong propesyon. Ako ay naging isang guro dahil sa pangangailangan ng mga mag-aaral sa kasalukuyan. Hindi ko man ito ginusto noon subalit dahil sa aking mga naging estudyante at mga natutunan, minahal ko ang propesyong ito at patuloy pang mamahalin sa pagdaan ng panahon.
