This is the official page of the UST-Artlets Economics Society, where we foster camaraderie, academic excellence, and leadership among students and alumni. The Artlets Economics Society of the UST Faculty of Arts and Letters, ever persevering in its goals to provide empowered and inspired Thomasian economists to the Philippine society, which was established by her forefathers in 1975, has continually maintained her legacy of dynamism, intellect, and compassion in order to fully realize her vision of an enlightened Filipino nation for all.

The UST Artlets Economics Society is sending a good luck dust to our fellow Thomasian-Economists as they take on their Preliminary Examinations for the First Term of A.Y. 2026-2027!

As you face your exams, remember to take care of yourselves, too. Don’t forget to rest, eat well, stay hydrated, and take a breather when things get overwhelming. Your physical and mental well-being matter just as much as your grades!

Padayon, Thomasian-Economists! May your hard work pay off, and may your answers be as solid as your economic principles 🫶🏻📖

𝐇𝐎𝐍𝐎𝐑𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓𝐎𝐑𝐒 𝐁𝐄𝐇𝐈𝐍𝐃 𝐎𝐔𝐑 𝐆𝐑𝐎𝐖𝐓𝐇 📚

This Teachers’ Day, we celebrate the professors who continue to shape our learning, perspectives, and aspirations. Beyond the lessons discussed in the classroom, their guidance, patience, and dedication remind us that education is also about challenging ourselves, asking better questions, and growing through every experience.

Today, we honor the educators who have become part of our journey as students and future professionals. May we carry with us not only the knowledge they have shared, but also the values and lessons that continue to shape the people we aspire to become. To our professors, thank you for being an integral part of our growth and for inspiring us to keep learning, striving, and moving forward. Happy Teachers' Day! 💙

🚨🍌 BEE-DO! BEE-DO! BEE-DO! 🚨🍌

Looks like the Minions are getting ready for something… and this time, they might need a few more helping hands 🙌

Every mission needs a team, and every team needs Minions who are ready to learn, create, collaborate, and make every experience a little more memorable. What makes a good minion? A curious mind, a willing heart, a little bit of courage, and the energy to take on whatever comes your way. ✨

Who knows? You might just be the minion we’ve been looking for 💛
