Kilos PUPian, Oras Natin To!
KILOS is one of the many student organizations in PUP. Its main objective is to provide the students with leadership development activities that could be useful to them.
The group believes that PUPian could only face the challenges outside the university if we consider skills development as part of the students’ training. This would be done by providing them with proper trainings that is constructive, rational, and responsible; moving away from the practices of “destructive activists” in the university.
KILOS is also a student political party aiming for a transparent, effective and responsive student government. We are calling for a student government that:

The main building at the Sta. Mesa were built through the collective efforts of students at that time thinking about the large number of students to be accomodated by this institution for the future.
- Tuition Increases were proposed by several administration (from P12/unit-P18/unit, P12- P80, and currently from P12-75 for the upcoming freshmenbut student power prove that through united voice, action and goal all TFI didn’t succeed throughout the past administration and even the present admin which is the main reason why this acdeme is still nourishing the sector of education in our country and giving its committment for a quality education while students especially their family is not economically-suffered.
- And recently, the administration proposed for the upcoming freshmen the additional P 1,000 pesos Developmental Fee and the institutionalization of the Departmental exam which will cost P30 for every examination in all departments of the university but in that BOR meet students again united and march to the CHED Office despite of the final exams and completion of many requirements in the end of the semester to denounce this another burden to the upcoming freshmen. But the Chairman of the Board of Regents and Ched Chair Romulo Neri said that these fee should not be shouldered by the upcoming freshmen and if the Guevarra Administration wants to implement a Student Information System Neri said that the admin must be the one to shoulder it and not the poor students of PUP who are also be degraded by the Arroyo administration.
-Thousands of students of PUP lead in the call for the ouster of the corrupt government of ERAP in the EDSA 2 People Power. Recently, the Lozada’s Visit in the PUP prove that this university is a militant and progressive university as it warmly welcomed Lozada with confettis, cheer, chants, calls and thousand of students who are not threatened by the bomb threat alrmed the security office who forcely prevent students from listening and witnessing the truth from the whistleblower Jun Lozada. Many praises from different organizations, individuals like alumni, and ven politicians were given to the PUP community even the president Guevarra still plan for a unity courtesy call to the evil president with faculty, employees and some students to show a bogus support to the morally bankrupt governement.
the big question is where are you at this times? (I’m not pertaining to a partcular group), inside your classroom and studying? Busy in completing your requirement for the most outstanding student of the year? Completing your classcards from your professors who offers many things in exchange of a higher grade? At the Malacanang palace and Showing support to the evil president? Where are you?
But still its not the end, the issue for the search for the truth and accountability of this morally bankrupt government is not yet finished. We can still join the large number of people uniting to call for the awakening of the conscience and palbra de honor of this government…
It’s not yet over…
It’s not yet over….
This is not an issue whether we are for whom but it is an issue whether we are for what, for what we are believing in this present situation of our country…
It’s not yet over… This is only thre start!

Serving the students is not measured by the power or the autonomy they have or a group have but still you can prove and do your goal and objectives for your constituents even with or without a specific position or institution on your university or college as well…
Let’s see and watch and be vigilant if the true leaders are in our front or not…
Let’s see!!!
