The 2025 Ateneo de Naga University Grand Alumni Homecoming, held on December 30, 2025 at the Ateneo Covered Courts, was a joyful reunion that brought together generations of Ateneans in one unforgettable evening.

Guiding the program with warmth and energy were the event hosts, Richard Nabua and Macy Zapata, who set the tone for an evening that felt b

THE year 2025 may well mark a defining rupture in the country’s long, uneasy relationship with corruption. Not because corruption suddenly appeared—Filipinos have lived with it for decades—but because it finally reached a scale so vast, so destructive, and so visible that denial became impossible. For years, corruption in public office had been treated as a grim constant, almost an entitlement attached to power. It was rationalized as part of a patronage-driven system, excuse

Is this the first time this has happened? Maybe it has, but it happens rarely. The last week of the year is a week-long holiday. So, what do we call it? Do we call it a holiweek? Technically, the holidays are December 30 because it’s Rizal Day, December 31 because it’s New Year’s Eve and January 1 because it’s New Year’s Day. If we had stuck to technicalities, we would have been left with the Monday and Friday as regular working days. Thanks to Memorandum Circular No. 1

(Note- For more than eight decades, the wooden two-story right and left wings of the Ateneo de Naga University Main Building stood as a steadfast guardian of teen-aged Bikolanos who wanted to be educated by the bodacious Jesuits.

As a young first year high school student in 1962,

Every morning along our street on Misericordia, near Panganiban in Naga City, a familiar voice glides ahead of the day. It comes from a sound system mounted on a humble tricycle, looping like a gentle alarm clock: “Yaon na po, malunggay pandesal, masarap na, mainit pa.” Since the pandemic, it has made its rounds faithfully, announcing not just bread but routine—proof that mornings still arrive, warm and reliable. The pandesal on wheels now crisscrossing Naga City and much of
