BY TRISHA S. LINDO

After the pandemic, The Pioneer conducted again an executive committee training for the AUF Press Club comprised of the eight college publications, yesterday at St. John Paul II Lecture Hall.

Among the participating publications were Teacher’s Pen - College of Education (CED), Nurscene - College of Nursing (CON), The Allimed Explorer - College of Allied Medical

Professions (CAMP), Tradewings - College of Business and Accountancy (CBA), including the newly revived Lighthouse - College of Arts and Sciences (CAS), CrimWatch - College of Criminal Justice Education (CCJE), Perspective - College of Engineering and Architecture (CEA), and Datalink - College of Computer Studies (CCS).

The Pioneer invited two of AUF’s Top Outstanding Students (TOS) 2022 awardees namely

Ma. Rheanna Tuazon, TOS for Journalism, and Michelle Calabia, TOS for Leadership, to speak about campus press management and leadership respectively.

Tuazon echoed how this faceto-face training is conducive as the Coronavirus outbreak limited the recent years of her EIC-ship to webinar training.

“It’s really refreshing to see an in-person training for college publications. As far as I know, the last one was still in 2014,” she shared.

Incumbent Editor in Chief Adrian Poul T. Blando announced the upcoming Tayid-Tayid series where the college publication could participate to improve their journalism skills.

Said training is to hone campus journalism skills and empower the committee of each college publication to lead effectively and with constancy and consistency.
