I’m sure many of those who received honors from UP deserved it.
Among them are UP Journalism graduates Jessica Hermosa and Johanna Sisante, whose thesis was named the best produced by the Class of 2008 of the College of Mass Communication (CMC). Their thesis was titled “Seat of Power: An Investigative Study on the Legislative Motives of the Authors of the Biofuels Act of 2006.” Their thesis adviser was Prof. Yvonne Chua.
The thesis was published as a two-part investigative report by Vera Files, an online publication that produces in-depth articles on various issues.
