Dante F.M. Ang 2nd, President, Chief Executive Officer and Executive Editor of The Manila Times, said the OJT program is the modest contribution that the company could give to students to develop them into good journalists.

“I hope this is the beginning of your interest in and passion for journalism. We look forward to your success. I look forward to reading your names as bylines in newspapers, perhaps in The Manila Times,” he said during the graduation ceremony.

The short ceremony was also attended by Rene Q. Bas, Dean of the TMTC; Dr. Isagani Cruz, President of the TMTC; Tita Valderama, training coordinator of the TMTC; and Manny Malasmas, professor at the College of Education Arts and Sciences of NU.

Malasmas awarded Ang a certificate of appreciation for accepting the NU students to the OJT program.

An agreement between NU and TMTC allows NU students with an AB English diploma to take up journalism at The Manila Times College.

According to Malasmas, the TMTC was the top choice of the NU administration since the college provides a quality course for journalism students.
