baterbonia’s story is impossible to separate from class. for kids from wealthy families, education and sports can be passions. for kids from working class households, they are responsibilities and pathways out of poverty and promises made to the people waiting for them back home.
“Father Karel has announced that Ateneo de Davao University will be renaming the basketball court at the Senior High School in honor of Rene.
RBCC — Rene Baterbonia Covered Court.
What an incredible and meaningful tribute to a young man who inspired so many people through his humility, hard work, faith, and love for his family.
Rene dreamed big despite having very little. He carried the pride of his family, his community, and Ateneo de Davao wherever he went. Now, generations of student-athletes will step onto that court and be reminded of his story, his sacrifices, and the dreams he chased with all his heart.
Rene, your name will forever be part of Ateneo de Davao. Every practice, every game, every young athlete who steps onto the RBCC will remember the boy who proved that no dream is too big when you are willing to work for it.
Congratulations, Rene. This court will stand as a reminder of the life you lived and the lives you continue to inspire.
💙🦅
RBCC — Rene Baterbonia Covered Court. Forever an Eagle. Forever our MVP.”

what’s new.. 😬
kakatawa how standards, accountability, and basic decency suddenly become negotiable when someone’s good at what they do and considered a “key player.”
the moment someone becomes too valuable to lose, everyone’s memory gets surprisingly selective.
awa nalang
not even an atenean but it's sad to see a respectable and prestigious institution suddenly be subjected to stigma and scrutiny and innocent students are getting dragged into the mess
with how ateneo handled this, they just ruined their reputation and tainted their name forever
whenever the female enters political propaganda as a figure she must always be erotiziced and she must be a slut, a succubus, a sexy seductress. no humanity is given to her.
