Abugan prefaced the history of the campus radio’s establishment and emphasized the station’s use of videos to “connect with its audience” via live broadcasts. She also explained its system for airing and how Tiger Media Network, the official broadcasting unit of UST, accommodates student media volunteers.

Bearing the theme “Back to Basics,” PCRC 2019 strives to instill the significant principles and skills that a responsible media practitioner should hold in a rapidly emerging and innovating world. With over 150 participants all over the country, the congress is organized by the UP Department of Broadcast Communication and DZUP 1602, the official AM radio station of UP Diliman.

UST’s Internet-based radio, Tiger Radio, is accessible via: http://mixlr.com/ustigeradio. Its jocks are student volunteers from the different faculties, colleges, and schools of the University.
