SINAG is the official student publication of the College of Social Sciences and Philosophy of the University of the Philippines, Diliman.
In its 53rd year, SINAG is once again facing tumultuous times. Amid a raging pandemic and a deepening economic recession, the publication's online presence has been severely hampered by organized and sustained attacks from paid online trolls. SINAG's original Facebook page, which already had 12,000+ likes, began to suffer from low reach and impact as the unjustified reports took their toll.
To fulfill its mission of upholding the truth and defending press freedom, SINAG deemed it apt to begin anew on the platform. Unencumbered by past obstacles and with renewed zeal to serve the people, SINAG aims to fight back and deliver a radical, assertive, and mass-oriented brand of journalism.
History
SINAG was established in 1968 when Philippine democracy was facing its biggest challenge since independence. The students from the College of Arts and Sciences recognized the need for an official student publication that will foster critical perspectives and a thirst for change.
The publication's name is a portmanteau of sining and agham, Filipino words for arts and sciences respectively. Meanwhile, the portmanteau itself means ray of light in Filipino. Choosing SINAG envisions the paper as a source of light to counteract the darkness of oppression and violence. While the bloody Marcos dictatorship has long fallen, the Philippines is yet to leave behind social injustice, corruption, poverty, and other social ills.
Thrust
SINAG will continuously seek to uphold its commitment to fair, vigilant, academic, and relevant journalism under the principle of democratization of discourse in order to take a coherent stand on pertinent issues. Now on Volume XLIII, SINAG has the vision to foster significance of the College campus publication in scholastic eminence and social empowerment.
