About Piscatores
The official student publication of Bulacan State University – Hagonoy Campus.
Piscatores is the official student publication of Bulacan State University – Hagonoy Campus. The name is the plural of the Latin piscator, “fisherman” — a collective word for a crew, and a nod to the coastal identity of Hagonoy and the communities the campus serves.
The publication exists to report accurately, explain clearly, and give students a forum for ideas. We publish campus news, national stories with a student lens, community development reporting, and features that document the life of the campus and the Bulacan coast.
What we publish
- Campus News — administration, student services, facilities, events, and campus issues.
- National News — national policies, elections, and education-sector developments that affect students.
- DevComm — community extension, advocacy, environment, and coastal development.
- Features — profiles, long-form writing, photo essays, cartoons, and human-interest stories.
- Issues — the Piscatores e-magazine archive, published each semester.
Our commitments
We aim to be accurate, fair, and transparent. We correct errors openly, distinguish news from opinion, identify our sources whenever possible, and disclose conflicts of interest. Our editorial standards are set out in our editorial policies.
Piscatores is produced by students, for students. The editorial board is responsible for what appears on this site. Stories, photographs, and illustrations remain the work of their authors.
Independence
The publication welcomes guidance from its faculty adviser and the campus administration on matters of law, safety, and budget. Editorial decisions — what to cover, how to frame it, and what to publish — belong to the student editorial board.
