The University therefore is faced with the challenge to take responsibility to mitigate the traffic that it generates, which is a source of aggravation for both humans and the environment. Research conducted by the Ateneo Traffic Group and the Ateneo Traffic Research Group showed that the Ateneo de Manila University contributes around 20% of the total traffic congestion in Katipunan Avenue, on the average. The traffic problem is caused by the high demand of vehicles compared to the limited road capacity as well as human behavior and preference. As such, the solution to the traffic problem is not only to increase and improve infrastructure but also to shape a new community culture for alternative mobility. Opportunities to shift towards a more efficient mobility system revolve under the following major themes: (a) provide a safe and clean environment conducive to study, work and play, (b) create efficient mobility systems, and (c) integrate mobility systems in education and formation programs. Table 1 below summarizes the policy and action point recommendations of the Ateneo Traffic Group. Table 1.Recommendationsfor efficient mobility in the Loyola Heights campus. Provide a safe and clean environment conducive to study, work and play Provide interconnected covered walkways Standardize designs for pedestrian crossing, signages and roads Increase the number of dormitories or advocate for a boarding school Optimize community cooperation for a walkable Katipunan (through Operation Katipunan) Consolidate car park facilities into car park building Create car-free zones within the Ateneo campus Create efficient mobility systems Improve the carpool system Provide a campus shuttle service Provide shuttle service to Ateneo from strategic hubs Push for a bus line along Katipunan Set up system for pay-parking Increase the gap in daily schedules (distribute vehicle volume by increasing the intervals of the ingress and egress of AGS, AHS and LS) Improve management of drop off and pick up points Review current issues on heavy bags (delaying drop off and pick up rates) Explore the creation of more access points Improve traffic circulation flow Integrate mobility systems in education and formation programs Establish centralized authority on traffic management Design and implement training modules for traffic management The recommendations were ordered according to priority, spread out over a three-year implementation period (Figure 1, below). %#4-$82 Ateneo Traffic Group Recommendations 2012 ‐ 2013 2013‐2014 2014‐2015 Recommendation J JASONDJ FMAMJ JASONDJ FMAMJ JASO 1.

    INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON SPORT PEDAGOGY, HEALTH AND WELLNESS 1 PE Plus: Retooling Physical Education for Inclusion, Development and Competition INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON SPORT PEDAGOGY, HEALTH AND WELLNESS International Conference on Sport Pedagogy, Health and Wellness (ICSPHW) Copyright © 2016 by the College of Human Kinetics, University of the Philippines, Diliman. All rights reserved. 2 PE Plus: Retooling Physical Education for Inclusion, Development and Competition INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON SPORT PEDAGOGY, HEALTH AND WELLNESS UNIVERSITY OF THE PHILIPPINES QUEZON CITY OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT MESSAGE I am privileged to welcome all the guests and participants of the 1st International Conference on Sport Pedagogy, Health and Wellness (ICSPHW). No less than the world's top experts in health, human movement, and pedagogy are gathered here today to discuss important physical education and sports science-related topics over the next three days. While UP's commitment to academic excellence has always been the cornerstone of our success, this has at times been incorrectly conflated with a pursuit of purely intellectual brilliance. This misconception, no doubt fed by the false dichotomy of mind and body, has led to the misconstrued notion attributing UP's contributions to society to purely mental feats. This is of course far from the truth, and does not bespeak of the kind of liberal education that UP has historically espoused. We are lucky and grateful that the UP College of Human Kinetics (UP CHK) has been fully committed to bucking the stereotype and has been showing how well-rounded the Filipino youth can be. Since assuming its name in 1989, the UP CHK has been the base of operations and primary nurturer of UP's student athletes and athletic organizations.

  • Synopsis and Write Ups
    Synopsis and Write Ups SET A KUDETA! KUDETA! A coma patient and a disgruntled fallen angel join forces in a plot to remove Lucifer from power. It’s good versus evil and all the grays in between. About the playwright Jimmy Flores is a freelance graphic designer who dabbles in filmmaking. He has written scripts for indie productions such as Auraeus Solito’s Tuli and Boy, Lawrence Fajardo’s Raket ni Nanay and X-Deal, and just recently, Supremo and Mariposa Sa Hawla ng Gabi for Richard Somes. Kudeta! Kudeta! is his first foray into stage plays. About the director Ariel’s (ARIEL S.R. YONZON) love for the theatre grew through a chiaroscuro of different arts in the palette of his life – good literature, appreciation of fine music of the masters, excellent grasp of language, among others, that all blended beautifully together in his journey, first at the MET (Manila Metropolitan Theater) in the early 80’s and, later, on to campus theatre at the University of the Philippines, through the U.P. Anak-Tibawan, as actor and stage manager. But, his reverence for the arts was bound to bring him to the country’s Cultural Center of the Philippines, where some of the world’s best artists perform. As one who has had the privilege of climbing up the ranks, first as Theatre Usher (as he was then a working student), then, as Project Coordinator (for the CCP Musical and Dramatic Arts Divisions), and, finally, as Head of the CCP Theatre Operations Department, he brings a unique understanding of theatre production work, grasping fully what every facet of theatre entails and giving both artists and stage personnel all that is necessary to give the audiences stellar productions.

Fr. Bienvenido F. Nebres, S.J., President of the Ateneo de Manila University Your Excellency, Ambassador Christiaan Tanghe of the Royal Belgian Embassy in ManilaYour Excellencies and Distinguished Guests from the Diplomatic CommunityAdministrators, Faculty, Staff, and Students of the Ateneo de Manila University, of the Loyola Schools, and last but not least, of the School of Humanities, a warm welcome to you all! Dames en Heren, Gooie Avond. Van harte bid ik u welkom aan de vernissage van de tentoonstelling “Putting the Philippines on the Map: The Belgian Contribution.” Mesdames, Mademoiselles, Messieurs, Bienvenu à tous et à toutes à l’ouverture de l’exposition “Putting the Philippines on the Map: The Belgian Contribution.” I first heard of Belgians when I was fourteen—in a Latin class in second year high school: “Gallia est omnis divisa in partes tres, quarum unam incolunt Belgae.” Translation: “Gaul is divided into three parts, of which one part is inhabited by the Belgians.” It is added: “Fortissimi sunt Belgae”—“The Belgians are the bravest [among these peoples].” Later on, at the age of twenty-two (young and full of hope), I saw a forgettable movie--“If it’s Tuesday, it must be Belgium!”—about a busload of Americans breezing through Europe in a week.
