I know that it's not only UP's tuition fee increase that is being protested. Most of the runners come from the u-belt, intramuros, españa areas. Would they care about increasing state subsidy of other state univesities and colleges? No, because they're in a private university. Extra judicial killings? Kill all the human rights leaders, journalists, activists, etc. We only cared about Cris Hugo. The walang kamatayang Gloria resign protest? The different issues that are being protested in the oblation run are thought about 10-15 mins. before the run. Go figure why the Gloria resign protest is included.

This is a wrong notion. Neophytes are NEVER allowed to join the oblation run.
