Cherry Lou Nequia's Profile


What does PUP really stand for…

Pila Ulit Pila.
Pataasan ng Utak Pababaan ng tuition.
Polytechnic University of the Philippines.

by Leighnor Ann Gumogda

Deterioration of the quality of education in the country has long been the matter every time a school year begins. Good thing that many students in PUP are still excelling in numerous fields. This may be proven by Cherry Lou Nequia, a broadcasting communication student of Polytechnic University of the Philippines who passed the 2006 PUPCET with a raw score of 100+.

She filed an application for entrance examination at Polytechnic University of the Philippines and University of Santo Tomas when she was about to enter college, and luckily, she passed both entrance examinations but did not consider the latter because of high tuition fee. Like Cherry Lou, low tuition fee but a quality education is the most common reason of all students who wanted to enter and have already entered PUP. Every student who wanted to be part of this institution, have to experience the Pila Ulit Pila system every enrollment. Not to mention the antique facilities and equipment that the university has, and Cherry has been experiencing these for three years. Aside from not- so- ideal facilities, she was dragged into dire issues about the shortcomings of the management that are being flaunted these days. According to her, it’s annoying because whether the students like it or not, they are also being drawn on the issues about the school but it would be so shallow to be subjective in all aspects, and get so affected, that is why she just currently enjoys herself at College of Communication where she experience different bliss and opportunities of the course every time they got to do productions and being paid off and appreciated.

There comes the PUP gang rape, the computer shop inside the university issue, and the old problem about the not reasonable beautification projects, still, PUP created many renowned people in different fields especially in television and movie industry, that’s what makes Cherry proud as she takes pleasure in being a broadcast communication student and be inspired of getting into the level which she can fulfill her goal to be a director.

Amidst of all the intrigues, Cherry Lou remains proud as a PUPian as she proves that good education cannot only be encompassed by conducive classrooms, quality books and beautiful facilities and equipment, but a better look towards a quality education in a stumpy cost.

What the Polytechnic University of the Philippines really stands for is the quality education as they prove the “Pataasan ng Utak Pababaan ng tuition” aphorism even with Pila Ulit Pila System.
