Official First Release of Eskriba

This photo was posted in my Instagram account (@heyimalgene) last June 2013. It was taken at the Finster Building of Ateneo during the launching of Eskriba. As you can see, Camille, Eskriba’s EIC was holding the teaser issue of the first-ever school publication of Ateneo de Davao College of Law. Together with us is Eskriba’s Associate Editor, Bruneson.

Despite the hectic schedule at school we still managed to come up with an issue especially prepared for Ateneo law students and professors. Some of the interesting articles included in the issue are “Health Risk Factors of Bad Study Habits,” “Two Myths,” “Time to Study: Where to Go?” (written by me) and “Spoil the Rod, Spoil the Child: Revisiting RA 8344.”

About Esriba:

Ang eskriba ay isang dalubhasang manunulat na may 
natatanging talento at pagsasanay sa pagbasa at pagsulat. 
Ito ay tinatawag ding isang eksperto sa batas kung 
kaya’t itinuturing din itong guro ng batas. 
Ang eskriba ay maaari ding mangahulugan ng isang
 instrumentong panulat o pangguhit. 
Ito ay maaring simbolo ng dalubhasa at ekspertong pamamahayag.

Eskriba grounds its beliefs in the values of truth, freedom and justice, to wit:

1.) That freedom to information is an important precondition and by-product of a responsible local social milieu towards relevant legal education and development.

2.) That student publications shall be allowed to fully operate in line with upholding the rights and welfare of every student of the law as enshrined in the Vision, Mission and Goals of the Ateneo de Davao University, the Philippine Constitution and the Universal declaration of Human Rights of he United Nations;

3.) That the publication should feature important issues not only those within the Ateneo de Davao University College of Law but also those in the national aspects of the society and matters related to the local laws, public policy and that of the legal profession
