Matanglawin
''Matanglawin'', literally meaning ''"Hawk's Eye"'' and usually contracted as ''Mata'', is the official student newspaper of the Ateneo de Manila University in the Filipino language. The student paper dedicates itself to discussing socio-political events in the Philippines, the plight and suffering of the working class, as well as pressing student rights issues. It is part of the Ateneo's Confederation of Publications (COP), including ''The GUIDON'' and ''Heights''.,〔http://www.ateneo.edu/index.php?p=77 Ateneo de Manila University〕 which is published bi-monthly (formerly quarterly).
From a circulation of a few mimeographed copies hidden in books at the Rizal Library in the 1970s, ''Matanglawin'' is now published in glossy form and has a circulation of more than 2,000, serving the Loyola Schools community. Copies of the publication are also sent to student publications across the Philippines.
== Origin of the name ==
The word or name ''Matanglawin'' contained negative connotations based from Philippine literary canon. The character of Cabesang Tales from Jose Rizal's novel ''El filibusterismo'' took the word as his moniker when he descended into terrorism and banditry after having been maltreated and denied justice by the Spanish colonial government. There were also characters in the plays of patriot playwrights Aurelio Tolentino and Onofre Pagsanghan representing the Filipinos who became bootlickers and lapdogs of the colonial masters named as such, characterized by their rapacity and brutality against fellow Filipinos.〔Albert Alejo, S.J. "Bakit Matanglawin?" ''Matanglawin.'' Vol. VI, No. 1. July 1983.〕
The publication, however, offers a different explanation as to how the name defines its work by breaking down the word into three other words: "mata" (eye) for the student journalist's meticulous attention to detail, data, wordings and critical observation; "tanglaw" (illumination) for the writer's duty to explain difficult topics to the common reader while at the same time offering new insights; and "lawin" (hawk) for the tradition of courage in championing the cause of justice and the rights of the poor, though deviating from any ideological advocacy.〔http://matanglawin.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=30&Itemid=46 Karla Mesina.
