Since I was the first member of my generation of the Rockefeller family to serve as a trustee of the Fund, I was particularly pleased that in June of 1992, when I was elected chairman of the Fund, my daughter Catharine Broderick was elected a trustee—the first member of her generation to join the board. The continuing involvement of family members from generation to generation is key to achieving that purpose. AbbyM.

    UPSEAA DISTINGUISHED ALUMNI AWARDS RECIPIENTS OF DISTINGUISHED ALUMNI CITATIONS – Graduated before 1965 AMADO A. CASTRO (BSBA major in Economics, 1948) Dr. Amado A. Castro can be said to be the man who was present at the creation. He was the very first Dean of the UP School of Economics from its founding in 1965 to 1973, during which he built a faculty known as the strongest in Southeast Asia. He joined UP in 1948 as Instructor in Economics at the College of Business Administration (CBA) where he became Head of the Department of Economics in June 1956. He was Acting Dean of the CBA in 1958, and Director of the Institute of Economic Development and Research from 1958 to 1966. When he came back from the US after obtaining his Doctorate degree in Economics at Harvard University in 1954, he was the only faculty with a Ph.D. and was teaching all economics courses except public finance, although he eventually became known to many students for teaching economic history courses. He retired from the UP School of Economics in 1989 and became a Professorial lecturer at the University of Asia & the Pacific. With his remarkable pedagogical record of consistent excellence for 41 years at UP, he nurtured and inspired multiple generations of economics students. His work as a founding member and past president of the Philippine Economic Society in 1960, and as past President of the Pastoral Council of Sto. Cristo parish in San Juan, and on the board of San Martin de Porres Charity Hospital, exemplified his deep sense of caring and commitment to his students and fellowmen.
