The search process for the UP Student Regent has three stages: college-wide deliberations, university-wide deliberations, and systemwide deliberations. In all these processes, the respective nominees will undergo careful deliberations with the respective college and/or university search committees.
After these deliberations, only the nominees endorsed by the UP unit (Autonomous or Regional) will proceed to the final stage of selection at the convention of the General Assembly of Student Councils, which will take place from August 6 to 8 at UP Mindanao, where the final order of nominees will be determined.
The SR is the lone student representative in the UP Board of Regents. It is their responsibility to heed and understand the issues and demands of the studentry in order to be effective representation in the Board and mount systemwide campaigns.
The UP OSR calls on all students, councils, publications, and formations to actively take part in the search. The official memorandum and Codified Rules for Student Regent Selection can be accessed and read through: tinyurl.com/SR43Files.
