The Lasallian Schools Press Conference (more known as LSPCon) is an annual event that convenes all student journalists from the member institutions of De La Salle Philippines for seminars and workshops on journalism with speakers from the Philippine media industry.
Topics include news writing, features writing, sports writing, opinion writing, creative writing, newspaper layout, editing, photojournalism, and illustration for newspapers and magazines.
It is organized by the Alliance of Lasallian Campus Journalists, a union of all student publications within the system, along with a host school chosen from the member schools.
Famous quotes containing the words schools, press and/or conference:
“Universal suffrage should rest upon universal education. To this end, liberal and permanent provision should be made for the support of free schools by the State governments, and, if need be, supplemented by legitimate aid from national authority.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
“The law isn’t justice. It’s a very imperfect mechanism. If you press exactly the right buttons and are also lucky, justice may show up in the answer. A mechanism is all the law was ever intended to be.”
—Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)
“Politics is still the man’s game. The women are allowed to do the chores, the dirty work, and now and then—but only occasionally—one is present at some secret conference or other. But it’s not the rule. They can go out and get the vote, if they can and will; they can collect money, they can be grateful for being permitted to work. But that is all.”
—Mary Roberts Rinehart (1876–1958)
