A Glaring Fact: The NORSUnian is the official STUDENT PUBLICATION of the Negros Oriental State University system.
Translation: The students own the publication. The students are the publishers. Not the University. Not the University President. And CERTAINLY NOT THE PRINTING PRESS!
Another fact:
♦The university does not own the publication in any way.
♦We are subjected to the rules and regulations of the university but the publication is independent from the influence of the school administration.
♦The administration cannot dictate or manipulate the student publication into publishing or otherwise hold stories that are critical to the university or its administration.
♦Even the university president has no right to dictate the publication with regards to internal matters in the publication. Such as, and most especially, the printing.
Translation:
The owner of the previous printing press which printed the TN issues starting November can rant all he wants to the university president but WE WILL HOLD FIRM to our decision that we will not make any repeat orders from him.
You want to "tell it to Henry", then go and tell it to Henry.
WE DON'T CARE!
You can even go and tell it to Gloria! Not Henry or Gloria can make us deal with you again.
As I've said, the university president cannot dictate the publication.
We will proceed with the bidding of the paper whether you like or not. Our contract with you is already done. The printing of the paper will pass through legal channels and will undergo legal and proper ways.
We are not satisfied with your printing, therefore, we have the right to go and look for another printer through a bidding (or a shopping). It is our right and you cannot deny it from us. If, in some unfortunate twist of fate, you manage to win again then so be it. But we will not submit without fighting for it. We will push through with the shopping (or bidding whichever is more convenient)!
One thing I want to make it clear to you is that, the student publication exists because of the students and for the students. NOT for the university president and certainly not for you or because of you. We are not your minions.
In one of his speeches, the university president once described the publication (indirectly) as a barking dog. Well, let me tell you something, we don't just bark. Sometimes, we bitetoo. And we bite hard!
