STUP wins Most Development-oriented Radio Public Service Program for two straight years in Gandingan

Serbisyong Tatak UP (STUP) sa DZUP 1602, a radio program produced by the National Service Training Program (NSTP) Diliman Office, in partnership with DZUP 1602, UP ROTC and UP Corps of Sponsors, bagged the “Most Development-Oriented Radio Public Service Program” award for two consecutive years in the Gandingan 2020: The 14th UPLB Isko’t Iska’s Multi-Media Awards.
