These are the people who bring you the paper. From sports wannabees to frustrated circus performers, your student publication - the Weekly Sillimanian - never runs out of larger than life characters. Okay, we love narcissism so we’re grabbing this chance to be in the limelight!
Odie: The Workaholic Insomniac
Being the most patient and kindest Editor-in-Chief in the history of the Weekly Sillimanian, he still couldn’t get away from numerous criticisms for being a frequent boarder of the office. His only problems: he never gets mad and he always has something to do.
Dirg: The Bespectacled Hobbit
This guy is a master of booze and animated chatter. A kid at heart, he loves to play computer games in the office and has a fear of starfish. This Associate Editor sounds dead serious in his columns but actually he is one quirky guy who keeps renting movies, using other accounts at VideoCity and never returns them.
John Boaz: The Skimboarding Intsik
News articles will never appear in this paper if not for this guy. A skimboarding aficionado with some hidden interests on literary masterpieces, this News Editor deceives many as someone who’s mysteriously silent but in truth has opinions many wouldn’t dare listen to.
Jordan: The Literary Virtuoso
Considered a pillar of the local food industry, our Features Editor who forever loves Bullfrogs has an affinity for quick snacks to serve his beloved pet, Ben, living in his stomach. A colorblind artist who has lots of ideas to back up our absentee writers, he saves the day when the official cartoonist disappears from our radar.
Jin: The Bihon ManHe is in charge for filling up our wallets with the monthly cash we need to subsequently fill our voracious appetites. Having the reputation for routinely serving our weekly meetings with a noodle dish, he must probably live longer than the rest of us.
Kim: The Intrepid Journalist
Forever bursting with eccentricity, one may wonder what an overgrown toddler is doing in a publication office. Donned in flared pants, jumpers, and large earrings, this lady remains bold and animatedly confident even when interviewing campus big names.
Micah: The Lost Sheep
Before the end of this semester, he suddenly disappears from our midst after a short stint as a theater actor. Primed for afterlife with all the “holy” water in huge gallons he has provided for us, we still think he must be as abstract as the philosophy he had studied before he shifted to Political Science.
Rochelle: The Super NurseAside from her passion to get into various involvements juggling debate, nursing stuff, and news interviews, this haggard lady has the flair to collect unusual things from cutters, ball point pens in assorted colors, to shiny little stars made out of paper. She is one weird wonder woman.
Ian: The Pretty Boy
It seems that this guy’s ambition in life is to become a campus figure, hence, his involvements in politics, beauty pageants, debating, controversial orgs, campus tours and the school paper. Despite his attempts to be humorous using his “inner charm,” it is strange that nobody finds him funny at all.
Donna: The Naughty Cutsiepie
Cute, cool, and pretty in her day-to-day outfits, this office fashionista-dictator is just too energetic and feisty for her petite size. Also, she couldn’t let go of the fact that she is stuck in the realm of news writing that’s why she can’t finish writing her feature articles.
Aiken: The Drag Performer
Just before he left us to face the demands of being a student (finally), he makes for an instant stand-up comedian and a singer with a voice stuck between the falsetto and the baritone.
Nikko: The Wonder Queer
This is another person who left us midway through February to pursue a showbiz career with the SU Kahayag Dance Troupe. We certainly missed his golden voice which he flaunted sporadically in the office when Aiken is not around.
Clyde: The Ghost Writer
He must have taken for lunch the latest edition of a thesaurus for being so verbose, effusive, garrulous, and loquacious in both written and spoken language. One thing’s for sure though: we will never forget the night that made all pee-stained public walls remind us of him.
June: The Strong-willed Debutante
Never be fooled by her seemingly endless smiles and jokes for this dancer sure knows how to kick everyone’s butts. Her impatience borders on insanity and we all tremble when we get to see some signs of exasperation from this lady.
Eunice: The Silent SweetheartThe school paper is surely to benefit from her until she finally comes to realize the real pressures of being a student Nurse. Extremely courteous and apologetic, we are wondering what surprises she still has in store in this or a parallel universe.
Sesinando: The Virtual Guy
One of the enigmas in the office is to know the whereabouts of this guy. Being a website manager means enduring the countless condemnation posted in the official website of the paper so it would be a real scare if this person would suddenly shut down.
Claudine: The Ultimate DisinfectantIf our quarters need some cleansing, this obcompfreak is always ready with decontaminating materials we could never imagine she has. Let us simply say that all hell breaks loose when she sees a tiny candy wrapper on the floor.
Noel: The Chosen One
Known as a soldier ready to save people from the fires of hell, this girl/not-so-girl magnet is responsible for ordering people around come circulation day. And when he’s not doing that, you’ll find him all-over the campus saving lives, giving shout-outs in Killerbee or emceeing every show known to mankind.
Gian: The Good Son
He is so humble and diligent we eternally wonder what’s behind that pleasant aura of his. We have never even heard this guy protest! But what we really know is that he is abused by our EIC in more ways than one. The day of Reckoning is coming!
Lovely: The Epitome of Seldom Seen
Don’t let her size deceive you. As one of our volunteers, her eagerness to learn and willingness to fill in for our photographer has bailed us out a number of times. And she’s always at large; we rarely see her in the office these days.
Primy: The Lady Geek
Her being extremely opinionated and candid could take one either on the hottest of hot seat or immediately on the verge of madness. Yet, we love her especially her singing talent and amazing photographs sans the changes of the editors.
Eugene: The Wandering Soul
Honestly an “underground” recruit from another campus publication, this silent guy stands out from the rest of us who have motor-mouths of mass destruction. But no matter how shy he is, he cannot deny that he once presented himself for a picture that was published in a gay article last year.
Camille: The Cosmopolitan Brat
Just a few months fresh from being a post-exchange student in Japan, we finally decide that this student nurse is clearly sunshine and confidence personified—she once changed outfits three times in one day. Well, we really need more of her in the office actually.
Dennis: The Indifferent Artist
One of the many characters who constantly appear-disappear in the office, we still glorify this guy for being an efficient cartoonist with a not-so efficient deadline protocol. A medical student firsthand, we understand and forgive his being late.
Sir Van Peel: The Biker Boy
Literally a person who’s always on the run, we are in awe that our second semester adviser is able to head English classes, do some tweaking on our paper, and runs from our weekly meeting to catch the latest American Idol episode. If these are not enough, one would be really amazed how he can out-Bean Mr. Bean.

Maam Gina: The Guidance Counselor
Ever-careful and ever-patient, our first semester adviser’s teachings are still indelible, and we will never forget how she was awfully concerned when our feet once (or twice, or thrice, or…) crossed the borderlines of journalism.
