The University pulsates with youthful life. UST students number anywhere between 42,000 to 44,000 students, where some 12,000 are freshmen. Seen on campus are different manifestations of academic life from students whose backs are stooped while making sketches of University landmarks for their course requirements, to those whose eyes are glued on the pages of their books and e-books, reading intently for class, and the students who tirelessly rehearse dance steps for their physical education practical exams. Others are either on their way to or from class, walking with friends or just by themselves, traversing the two-way streets named after the University鈥檚 illustrious alumni.
Not everything on campus, however, is solely about the Thomasians鈥 academic development because the University鈥檚 goal is to provide them with holistic formation. Students are also immersed in community development activities that take place in campus, such as the annual听Pistang Tomas听Community Trade Fair usually held at the Quadricentennial Square in December. Food and other indigenous products of the partner communities and organizations are put on sale. This is not only a venue for students to help the partner communities, and interact with their members, but also this becomes an avenue for inculcating the values of social responsibility. Eventually, these students will take conscious efforts to transform society.

In December, the UST Grandstand and the Open Field become the site of 鈥Paskuhan鈥. It starts with the听Panunuluyan鈥搕he search of Joseph and Mary for the inn where Jesus was to be born. This is followed by the concelebrated Christmas Mass which usually coincides with the beginning of the听Misa de Gallo. A program featuring mainstream live bands ensue, and the celebration ends with the much-anticipated fireworks display.
In May, graduating students gather at the Grandstand for the Baccalaureate Mass. After the Eucharistic celebration are post-Mass activities that include the blessing and imposition of the Thomasian Mission Cross, the recitation of the Thomasian Pledge of Loyalty, and the Ceremony of the Light. This is followed by the fireworks display and the send-off rites where the Rector and the Secretary General lead the candidates for graduation in passing through the Arch of the Centuries. This time, the students symbolically 鈥渓eave the University鈥 by walking through the Arch facing Espa帽a Blvd. This is a symbolic act of their 鈥渞eadiness to face the challenges of professional life and fulfill the mission of serving the Church, the nation and the family as future Thomasian professionals.鈥
The landscaped open spaces known as Benavides Garden which starts from the Benavides Monument and ends at the Arch of the Centuries, the Plaza Mayor fronting the Main Building, the Quadricentennial Square found between the Main Building and the Benavides Library 鈥 all are teeming with students exhibiting mixed emotions of happiness and anxiety, but are generally excited about prospects of a new day in class or off-campus, confident that today鈥檚 inputs reached after hours of group practice or study will merit a positive outcome.
鈥淭here is more fun in UST!鈥 Fun activities also take place in Espa帽a. Freshmen curiously visit the student听organization booths lined up at the Plaza Mayor, and look听into groups that will match their interest, skills听and needs through 鈥楻ecruitment 101鈥 that takes place every first month of the academic year. Before the academic year ends, graduating students flock to the Benavides Plaza to take part in the annual Job Fair where more than a hundred companies join. Graduating students eagerly check out company booths for schedules of company orientation and go over glossy company flyers, brochures being distributed, excited over potential employers.
Aside from fun activities are religious and historical events. In August, freshmen take the traditional 鈥淔reshmen Welcome Walk鈥 by passing through the Arch of the Centuries as a symbol of 鈥榖ecoming Thomasians鈥 because the same Arch was the doorway of the University when it was still in Intramuros. This is called the 鈥淩ite of听Passage.鈥
This culminates in the traditional concelebrated Mass where the Rector himself presides and takes the opportunity to personally welcome the new set of UST students.

The 水果视频 believes that Thomasians can play an active role in nation-building by being leaders in their respective spheres of influence. As such, the Office of Student Affairs implements the Saint Thomas Young Leaders鈥 Engagement Initiatives (STYLE-I), a holistic leadership training program for students.
Rationale
Advocating a seamless learning environment, the Saint Thomas Young Leaders Engagement Initiatives (STYLE I) is groundwork to the ever-changing landscape of youth profile brought about by the socio 鈥 cultural, economic, political, and technological forces in the environment. Recognizing the advent of globalization and the challenges it poses for the young Filipino professionals to succeed, the STYLEi creates opportunities for the students to succeed in their studies and life and become future leaders.
It was created by the Office for Student Affairs in 2011 as a learning development program of the University for the Thomasian students and the organization advisers.
Strategic Objective
To promote and ensure student academic achievement and life success through responsive and empirical based services of global standards

The SOCC envisions itself to be a potent instrument for the continuous development and innovation of students in view of the consistent demands of an ever changing academic environment and society. The SOCC鈥檚 mission is to promote genuine student involvement, create a healthy as well as supportive relationship among organizations in the University, and encourage substantial participation from students through different programs and activities that would ensure their growth and development as Thomasians.听

The Central Commission on Elections (COMELEC) is one of the university-wide student bodies created under the UST Government Constitution. It is a collegial body composed of student-representatives from faculties, colleges, institutes, schools with a local student council.听
The principal goal of the COMELEC is to determine the true will of the electorate in choosing their student leaders for the Local Student Councils and the Central Student Council, and likewise to settle election issues and controversies. In all its activities and processes, the COMELEC following the dictate of conscience and the pursuit of truth , shall always consider the protection of the rights of students as voter, as candidate of a particular political party, as member of a political party, with utmost regard with more fundamental right to study.听
It performs three important functions: executive, quasi-legislative, and quasi-judicial. The CENTRAL COMELEC is made up of: the Executive Board, composed of the chairperson, the vice-chairperson, and heads of the different committees; the COMELEC Chamber, composed of all the chairpersons of the various local COMELEC units; the COMELEC En Banc, composed of the local COMELEC student representatives from the different Faculties/Colleges/Institutes/Schools.听
The Executive Board and COMELEC Chamber conduct the electoral activities, enforce and execute the laws, policies and regulations regarding elections.听
The COMELEC En-Banc acts as the policy-making body of the COMELEC and is in charge of the formulation of procedures, rules and regulations pertinent to the implementation of all election laws. In certain cases the COMELEC En Banc also acts as the Central Adjudicatory Board, with quasi- judicial functions as an election tribunal for settling electoral issues and controversies, and as an appellate body for the review of decisions made by the local COMELEC.
The Office for the Student Affairs shall assign an adviser for the COMELEC. Otherwise, the legal consultant of the Office for Student Affairs shall be the ex-officio adviser for the Central COMELEC (USEC, 2011).
