Summer is finally here and I am looking forward to catching up on watching different show series that are on my “series to watch during the summer” list. As a series lover, I can honestly say how happy I am to see more seasons being released this year since we’re now coming out of the pandemic and going back to our new normal lives. Here are five series that I highly recommend to watch over the summer break:

As the upcoming 2022 election nears each passing day, the main question on every Filipino mind is, “Who am I voting for?” It’s a query some have yet to answer as the OctaResearch April Survey shows that about 1% of the population is still undecided. So, if you’re looking for a quick summary of what each political party stands for, their core establishments, and above all, their main goals, you’ve come to the right place! We’ll be discussing political parties in the Philippines and which presidential candidates, senators, and other politicians fall under them in order to gather a clearer view of the leaders who can create the change you yearn to see in the nation.

A survey was circulated among Enderun students that asked them to rank certain economic issues we Filipinos face in today’s world. The following struggles are poverty, climate change, COVID-19, gender inequality (LGBTQ+), feminism, social media feuds, governmental flaws, inflation, and employment/unemployment. All these problems must be brought to the spotlight regardless of their rank. Nonetheless, knowing what the youth aims to prioritize can lend us a deeper insight into the needs the generation aches for today. Respondents were tasked with ranking these issues according to their personal opinions of importance and urgency. Through this exercise, the collective priorities of the Enderun student body become clear.

We are now at that point of planning our future summer trips, our summer activities and even deciding on whether to do a summer semester. Summer won’t be perfect without some music hits that will help us have fun during the next few months of summer. Here are 7 songs that I picked out that are perfect for your summer playlists.

The elections are coming up, and it has become overwhelming for people to keep up. Political debates, candidate infographics, campaign rallies, social media discourses and the like, it becomes part of our daily knowledge consumption. With this, hat does a Titan think about all these events with this vast political atmosphere? A random survey with an arbitrary sample size of 22 participants was conducted to get the perspective of the Titan community regarding elections. This article will talk about the point-of-view from a few members of the Enderun Community about voting and their general insight about politics.

Have you participated in an election? If so, who did you vote for? What pivotal moment turned the mental cogs in your mind to decide, “This person is the best candidate”? Have you ever sat down and questioned why other people agree or disagree with your choice? Given the looming presence of the upcoming elections, it’s possible that some of us have wondered why we (and other people) choose the candidates we support.

Misinformation hides behind the face of reliability. What we see online is so accessible and believable that we often neglect fact-checking and questioning what we receive. It’s easy to be misled by something when it’s painted in harmless “educational” colors.

Enderun Colleges is a highly prestigious school. Thousands of students over the years have passed through its doors. It is inevitable that many of these people will have inspirational success stories for the younger generation to learn from. One of these students is Ms. Lora Ledesma, a current financial advisor and artist, and an alumna from Enderun Colleges. Ms. Felix, Art Appreciation professor, hosted Ms. Ledesma on the 21st of February, 2022 for a talk about her life, projects, and development as a person. It is highly encouraging to witness a former student of Enderun involved with such a monumental historical landmark of the Philippines. One of Ms. Ledesma’s major projects is contributing to the restoration of a historical piece of architecture known as the San Sebastian Basilica.

The invention of smartphones and social media has welcomed a new digital world to society. Society’s connectivity has heightened the importance of legal rights such as freedom of speech and press in the digital environment. Undoubtedly, social media’s critical position nowadays plays a significant role in our lives with its ability to inspire political participation, boost public awareness, and transform political agendas.

Through understanding each presidential candidates’ platform, we can anticipate the type of leadership we will have. Every six years, we are given a chance to choose the next person who will lead the country, transferring the political power to another. During that specific timeline, how is the state of wealth and production handled?
