#dzuprc

Before we go to the airwaves of 2015, let's end 2014 first with a bang and with a little pang of what DZUP Radio Circle has done in the past year. A lot of internal and external activities and events were held by the organization and it couldn't be more active than ever. 

DZUP RC started the year big with Elevate 2.0, the second installment of the student journalism workshop for high school students, last January 2014. A little over 300 students from all over Metro Manila attended the whole-day event as they learned from the journalism's finest such as Sir Robert Alampay, and young but promising student journalists, RC alumni and the like.

DZUP RC did not stop as they mounted a bigger event and it's College Collision: Reac7ivate, a collegiate battle of the bands that showcases the future of the Filipino music industry, last March 2014. In line with this year's theme of empowering OPM to the younger audience, popular OPM band Up Dharma Down graced the center-stage and gave the audience a very feels-y night.

To end the academic year 2013-2014, DZUP RC had to say goodbye to graduating students of the organization as they face the real world with relevance and competence. The event served as a sem-ender and it was an overnight full of fun and memorable activities. 

Over the surprising 4-month school break, DZUP RC did not stop working for their programs but at the same time planning for their return with a grander and better line up of events. The academic year 2014-2015 started with the search for the next voices to be heard in the organization. With the theme "Dare To Be On-Air", 20 potential new faces dared and once again diverse coming from different colleges and institutes in UP Diliman.

On October 2014, DZUP RC prepped up immediately for RC Week 2014: Back Track as they celebrate their 9th year on-air.There were events for everyone such as Replay: Boses ng Estudyante Strip Podcast, Life in Color Exhibit, UPCurrents Launch, For The Record: Radio Talk by Monster RX 93.1 DJs, RC Gives Back, Grand Pakain, and Elevate 3.0

Striking while the iron is hot, DZUP RC delivered the third installment of the student journalism workshop for high school students, Elevate 3.0 Uncover: Seeing The Truth in Journalism. Popular names in the industry such as Ms. Maeanne Los Banos, Sir Anjo Bagaoisan, and Ms. Jing Castaneda taught and inspired the budding journalists of this nation. 

  And in accordance to the season of giving, DZUP RC initiated RevUp, a series of tutorial sessions for high school students in Barangay Sauyo, Quezon City in preparation for the National Achievement Test or NAT. It started this December 2014 and will continue to the first quarter of 2015.

The future is looking bright for DZUP RC as the new year comes. In behalf of the whole organization, thank you for making our 2014 a historical one. Expect us to deliver more as we reach closer and closer to the celebration of our 10th year anniversary.
