On October 24, 2025, The Marine Echo and Sinaglahi convened for their Internal Capacity Building Workshop with the theme โ€œFrom Draft to Headline: Strengthening Editorial Competenceโ€ at the Audio-Visual Room (AVR).

The event commenced with opening remarks by Assoc. Prof. Jackie Lou Valdez, OSP Coordinator. She emphasized that the editorial board and staff should collaborate and continue learning, highlighting the importance of lifelong learning. She added that every day brings new opportunities to learn something new.

An inspiring message was then delivered by Ms. Arleen B. Uy, Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs and Services. In her talk, she emphasized the importance of ethical journalism and encouraged student journalists to do more for the student body and to be the voice of the underrepresented. She urged them to be open-minded and to cover relevant issues concerning the students as a whole.

Following the opening messages, Asst. Prof. Glebrose Giame Mercado-Solde, a renowned speaker on News Writing and Editorial Writing, took the stage. With her rich background in communications and journalism, she delivered a discussion titled โ€œSharpen the Pen: News and Editorial Writing for Student Journalists.โ€ She highlighted the fundamental principles of news and editorial writing and emphasized the application of techniques for clear, engaging, and ethical journalism.

The morning event concluded with a wrap-up activity facilitated by the speaker, followed by the giving of tokens and a photo opportunity with the speaker and participants.

What if education werenโ€™t a privilege, but a price?

For some, it comes easily, handed down like an inheritance, wrapped in comfort and security. Their school fees are paid without hesitation, their meals are ready at the table, and their only battles are with exams and deadlines. They walk into classrooms with steady minds, fresh clothes, and the quiet assurance that someone else carries their burden.

But for working students, every lesson is bought with sweat. Every grade is wrestled with sleepless nights. Every dream is paid for with sacrifices that leave scars no one notices.

At dawn, while others sleep soundly in the comfort of their beds, a student sits under the dim glow of a flickering bulb, fighting to keep their eyes open. The world is quiet, yet their mind is restless, caught between unfinished assignments and the thought of another long day to survive. Their hands, sore from endless daily battles, struggle to turn the pages of textbooks that blur into exhaustion.

Classrooms, for some, are places of laughter and carefree learning. But for working students, each seat feels heavier, carrying not only books but also bills, responsibilities, and silent sacrifices. While classmates worry about passing a quiz, they fear if their pay will cover rent, meals, and school fees. While some complain about the difficulty of a project, they endure the difficulty of choosing between sleep and survival.

The pain goes deeper than tired bodies. It is the silent ache of missing out, missing family dinners, missing rest, missing the simple joys of being young. Behind their forced smiles lie sleepless nights, aching bodies, and unspoken tears. They dream of a better future, yet the present demands everything from them, their time, their strength, sometimes even their hope.

Still, in this quiet suffering, resilience grows. Every peso earned is not just their income, but their sacrifices that turned into survival. Every passing grade is a small victory carved out of struggle. And every step closer to graduation is proof that no weight, no matter how heavy, can completely crush their spirit.

The reality of working students is clear: education is never free. It costs sweat, tears, and pieces of their youth. Behind every diploma is not just a studentโ€™s name; it is a story of survival, endurance, and the kind of courage that deserves more than applause. Because while others study to live their dreams, working students live to keep their dreams alive.
