Headed by the CAS Student Council (CASSC), the UP Manila community amplified issues of corruption. They brought to the forefront the problems regarding student spaces, misprioritization of the budget, corruption in various offices and branches of government, and the never-ending renovations and construction projects across the university.
The group called for accountability from the UP administration as well as government offices and sectors involved in these construction projects, both within and outside the university.
