On 15 November 2016, the Board of Regents of the University of the Philippines will elect a new U.P. President.

We urge the Duterte administration to respect the independence of the State University by not supporting any of the contenders.

We hope the eventual winner will be truly acceptable to the U.P. Community.

The bulwark of academic freedom and free speech must not be the victim of partisan incursion.
