Robi Domingo and Gretchen Ho visit Asia’s oldest existing university with a special guest tour guide in comedian John “Sweet” Lapus as they continue their campus tour in the show “University Town” (U-Town) this Sunday (July 30) on S+A and S+A HD at 1pm. 

Sweet, a proud alumnus of the University of Santo Tomas (UST), also the largest Catholic university in the world in terms of population, will bring Robi and Gretchen to iconic buildings and places inside the school’s sprawling campus along España, where they will be “walking” with presidents, heroes, and saints, as proud Tomasinos would say.

 The pair will meet the famed Teatro Tomasino organization, the university-wide theater guild which Sweet was a part of back in college. They will also visit the ice cream cart of Fidel Perez, a certified medical technologist who has seen generations of students since he started selling his sweet treats inside the school in 1989. 

Robi and Gretchen will also be joined by UST Director of Public Affairs Giovanna Fontanilla as they marvel at the beautiful structures in the school, which has produced legendary names in the field of architecture including Leandro Locsin and Juan Nakpil. 

“U-Town’s” latest episode also highlights the athletic program of the university, where each discipline is given ample attention for better performance in competitions, explaining why UST has the most overall championships in the UAAP. One of the school’s most decorated teams is the Growling Tigers’ judo squad that has amassed 24 UAAP titles. 

This is the fourth school that “University Town” gets to explore this season, which is on its second year of featuring the eight schools competing in the country’s premier collegiate league, the University Athletic Association of the Philippines (UAAP).

Don’t miss the chance to get to know more about the iconic buildings, distinguished alumni, and historic events that The Pontifical and Royal University of Santo Tomas has seen as Robi and Gretchen come visit UST in “University Town” on S+A and S+A HD this Sunday (July 30) at 1pm with a replay on Monday (July 31) at 8pm.
