  • Name of Institution: Miriam College Address of the Institution: Katipunan Avenue, Loyola Heights, QC Website: Back
    Name of Institution: Miriam College Address of the Institution: Katipunan Avenue, Loyola Heights, QC Website: www.mc.edu.ph Background of the Institution The story of Miriam College dates back to 1926 when the Archbishop of Manila, then Reverend Michael O’ Doherty, requested the Sisters of the Maryknoll Congregation in New York to initiate a teacher-training program for wom0en in the Philippines. In an old remodeled Augustinian Convent in Malabon, Rizal, the Malabon Normal School was established. The school transferred sites several times until finally in 1953, with its name officially changed to Maryknoll College, it laid down its permanent roots in Diliman (or Loyola Heights), Quezon City. Its graduates have distinguished themselves in various professions. Several have been cabinet secretaries, legislators, accomplished businesswomen, entrepreneurs, educators and leaders of government and nongovernmental organizations. To date, nineteen alumnae have been selected as “The Outstanding Women in the Nation’s Service” (TOWNS) awardees. After Vatican II, the Maryknoll congregation began to evaluate its work, not only in the Philippines but worldwide, in the light of their original apostolate as a missionary order. In the 60s, the Maryknoll congregation saw the readiness of the Filipino laity to continue the educational mission they had started. In 1977, the ownership and management of the school were turned over to lay administrators. In accordance with the agreement, the name Maryknoll was to be changed to pave the way for the promotion of the school’s unique identity, distinct although not disconnected from the identity of the Maryknoll sisters. In 1989, after a series of consultations, Maryknoll College was re-named Miriam College.

  • Polish-German Relations Since 1945 Conference Sketch Eng.Pdf
    Conference Sketch “Polish-German Relations Since 1945: A Source of Inspiration for Future Korean-Japanese Relations?” written by Yuka Fujioka (Kwansei Gakuin University and Kobe College) The conference was co-organized by the Asan Institute for Policy Studies, and the Polish and German Embassies in Seoul, with the aim of exploring the relevance of Polish-German reconciliation in advancing Japan-Korea relations. In essence, it can be said that the Polish-German relationship and the Korean-Japanese relationship are both inextricably linked by a complex and traumatic history defined in large part by the Second World War. The conference was attended by dignitaries from Germany and Poland who have been deeply involved with the reconciliation process and by experts from South Korea, the United States, and Japan. The main objective of the conference was to see whether the Polish-German reconciliation experience could offer inspiration for Japanese and Koreans to overcome their historical legacies and mutual distrust. Indeed, one highly credits the Asan Institute‟s efforts to take the initiative to address these entwined issues and to enhance prospective reconciliatory relations. The Session I: Political Dimension of Polish-German Relations was opened by the Polish and German speakers‟ discussion on their historical path to reconciliation with realism. Rather than only emphasizing the successes of European reconciliation, the speakers defined their case as one that has been full of mistakes and further acknowledged their bilateral relations to still being on a rocky-patch. Among the various motivating factors for reconciliation, the speakers emphasized the common security, economic, and ideational interests resulting from the demise of the Soviet Union as the indispensable driving forces behind their endeavors, while, at the same time, accentuating and highly crediting the proactive role of the 1 Conference Sketch non-governmental organizations and actors with shared religious values that had an influence on the rapprochement process.

  • Kathleen Beard Is Born August 10, 1908 in China • First Model T Produced by Ford • the Boy Emperor Pu Yi Is Chosen to Su
    1908 Kathleen Beard is born August 10, 1908 in China First Model T produced by Ford The boy emperor Pu Yi is chosen to succeed the throne by the Empress Dowager. He was forced to abdicate in 1912 but was allowed to remain in the Forbidden City until 1924. Flora is 39 and teaching in Foochow, China Willard is 43, Ellen- 40, Phebe- 13, Gould- 12, Geraldine- 10, Dorothy- 7, Marjorie- 2, and Kathleen an infant. [This letter dated Feb. 2, 1908 was written from Foochow, China by Willard to his sister, Elizabeth. It is Chinese New Years and there have been many fire crackers going off all night. Sister, Flora, went on a five day houseboat trip. Small pox and measles are prevalent and they were all vaccinated that week. Letter donated to Yale by family in 2006.] Foochow, China Feb. 2nd 1908. My dear Elizabeth:- I‟m beginning this letter tonight almost sure that letters from you all are lying over in the P.O. But you will know that I am writing before being punched up. Today is the first day of the Chinese New Year. Every thing is quiet,- it was not quiet last night. Fire crackers were banging all night long- worse than in an American city where no restrictions are put on the small boy at Fourth of July. Every one is in his best and brightest. Flora walked over to the Y.M.C.A. with me this afternoon and she was much struck with the gorgeous head gear, coats, trousers, shoes, and trinkets she saw on people of all ages.

  • Problems and Advantages of Children with Filipino Parents in Their School Lives in the Philippines and in Japan: Through Their Experiences in Both Countries
    The Asian Conference on Education 2013 Official Conference Proceedings Osaka, Japan Problems and Advantages of Children with Filipino Parents in Their School Lives in the Philippines and in Japan: Through Their Experiences in both Countries Kimi Yamoto Osaka University, Japan 0476 The Asian Conference on Education 2013 Official Conference Proceedings 2013 iafor The International Academic Forum www.iafor.org 1 The Asian Conference on Education 2013 Official Conference Proceedings Osaka, Japan 1. Background and Objective Nowadays not only people called “oldcomers” who have lived in Japan as a result of Japanese colonial policies, mainly Koreans and their descendants, but also many foreign people and their children called “newcomers” who have arrived in Japan relatively in recent years since the late 1970s live in Japan. According to statistics, there were 2,033,656 foreign nationals in Japan as of December 31, 2012 (Ministry of Justice 2013a). 202,974 were Filipino nationals and 27,496 among them were under the age of 20. Moreover, 62,009 stayed in Japan unregistered as of January 1, 2013. Of the unregistered foreigners, 5,722 were Filipino nationals (Ministry of Justice 2012b), some of whom were presumably children under the age of 20. There are also many children who were born to one or both of whom were foreign nationals. The number of babies born in Japan in 2012 to parents one or both of whom were foreign nationals was 31,748. This is approximately three percent of the total number of babies born in Japan. The number of babies born in Japan in 2012 to parents one of whom is a foreign national was 20,536.
