It is where they learn to write, to question, and to hold power accountable. It is a training ground that shapes not just future journalists, but the broader media landscape of the country. But as these young writers take their first steps into truth-telling, a pressing question lingers: Does the current system truly prepare them for what lies ahead?<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Much of what holds campus journalism back today can be traced to the weaknesses of Republic Act 7079, or the Campus Journalism Act of 1991. Written in the aftermath of Martial Law, the law has struggled to keep pace with the realities of modern journalism. The College Editors Guild of the Philippines reported nearly a thousand violations against campus press freedom since 2010 alone, from forced article deletions to outright bans on pitching stories critical of school administrations. Its vague language has left too much room for interference, and its protections are inconsistently enforced. In some cases, the very law meant to shield student journalists has been turned against them. This is why students, campus press alliances, and media advocates are now calling to revisit, update, or repeal RA 7079 altogether.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Updating the law is not just a legal matter. It is a matter of press freedom. Clearer protections against censorship, stronger editorial independence, and formal recognition of campus journalists as legitimate watchdogs are all steps toward a healthier media culture in the Philippines. Just as the student journalists of today carry the same passion and responsibility as their professional counterparts, they deserve a legal framework that reflects that. Defending campus journalism now means protecting the future of press freedom.<\/span><\/p><p><em>Read more about the <\/em><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em><a

Its vague language has left too much room for interference, and its protections are inconsistently enforced.
