Undergraduate Student Handbook 2010 Edition 1 Undergraduate Student Handbook 2010 Edition ATENEO DE MANILA UNIVERSITY LOYOLA SCHOOLS Undergraduate Student Handbook 2010 Edition Vision of the Loyola Schools The Ateneo Loyola Schools is a Filipino, Catholic, and Jesuit center of excellence of higher learning that is globally competitive while Asian in perspective; a community that transforms society through its research and creative work, its leadership in service to others and for the environment, and its formation of persons- for-others. y The regulations of the Loyola Schools as set forth in this Handbook are calculated to secure the good order necessary for the effective pursuit of knowledge, to help the students attain the level of quality work required of them, and to ensure proper deportment of the entire body. The student’s registration in the Loyola Schools is considered an expression of willingness to abide by all the rules and regulations prevailing in the Loyola Schools. Every student, therefore, is committed to the observance of these rules.

Pesigan 5 ATENEO DE MANILA UNIVERSITY LOYOLA SCHOOLS Undergraduate Student Handbook 2010 Edition Office of the Associate Dean for Student Affairs Message Vice President for the Loyola Schools Being an Atenean means being excellent in all that you do and using your gifts to serve others. We at the Loyola Schools hope that in the years you spend at the Ateneo, you find that these two ideals go together: you can serve others best only if you grow to your full potential. We are committed to your formation not only as leaders in your chosen fields, but as men and women in service to our society. The2010 Undergraduate Student Handbook serves as a guide so that you may know the systems, procedures, and programs at the Loyola Schools as you go through your formation. We join you in your journey to become Lux-in-Domino—Light in the Lord. John Paul C. Vergara Message Associate Dean for Academic Affairs How but in custom and in ceremony Are innocence and beauty born? Ceremony’s a name for the rich horn, And custom for the spreading laurel tree. -W.B. Yeats The Student Handbook of the Loyola Schools is more than just a compilation of customs and ceremonies. It is even more than just a code of rules and regulations. Read well, that is to say, in what Jeronimo Nadal calls in corde, in spiritu, et in practice, the Handbook is a guide to the Ateneo way of proceeding. It is meant to help you get along and, more importantly, reach the goal. Eduardo Jose E. Calasanz Message Associate Dean for Student Affairs The Loyola Schools, a tertiary educational institution, participates in the Christian mission of promoting the fullness and dignity of every human person. This Student Handbook contains the essential policies and rules of the institution designed to bring about a learning atmosphere conducive to one’s total formation. The handbook contains rules but it is important to remember that it is designed not to limit one’s freedom but rather to define an environment where students can seek and explore the different opportunities available for their personal growth and development, in collaboration with others. College is a venue for learning and for encountering others—other people present limits to our freedom, but they also provide opportunities for further exploring our potentials. An essential part of personal development therefore is learning how to live with and collaborate with others in the pursuit of wisdom and higher ideals. It is our hope that the learning environment that the Loyola Schools provides will encourage the student to practice personal responsibility and self-leadership. It is our dream to see at the end of the long process of college education a self-driven individual imbued with vision and continually seeking ways to use his or her God-given gifts in contributing to the common good.

It argues that any historical appreciation of Hispanic colonialism and culture would be incomplete without due considera- tion of the role meteorological phenomena played, both at the macro-level in terms of the form and extent of empire and at the more micro-level as manifest in the daily experience of communities. KEY WORDS Pacific, Spain, weather, colonialism, galleons The British Prime Minister Harold Macmillan made what has become an oft quoted speech in 1960 in which he likened the awakening of political conscious- ness in Africa to a ʻwind of changeʼ blowing through the continent.

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.

  • Scientific Authority, Nationalism, and Colonial Entanglements Between Germany, Spain, and the Philippines, 1850 to 1900
    Scientific Authority, Nationalism, and Colonial Entanglements between Germany, Spain, and the Philippines, 1850 to 1900 Nathaniel Parker Weston A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2012 Reading Committee: Uta G. Poiger, Chair Vicente L. Rafael Lynn Thomas Program Authorized to Offer Degree: History ©Copyright 2012 Nathaniel Parker Weston University of Washington Abstract Scientific Authority, Nationalism, and Colonial Entanglements between Germany, Spain, and the Philippines, 1850 to 1900 Nathaniel Parker Weston Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor Uta G. Poiger This dissertation analyzes the impact of German anthropology and natural history on colonialism and nationalism in Germany, Spain, the Philippines, and the United States during the second half of the nineteenth-century. In their scientific tracts, German authors rehearsed the construction of racial categories among colonized peoples in the years prior to the acquisition of formal colonies in Imperial Germany and portrayed their writings about Filipinos as superior to all that had been previously produced. Spanish writers subsequently translated several German studies to promote continued economic exploitation of the Philippines and uphold notions of Spaniards’ racial supremacy over Filipinos. However, Filipino authors also employed the translations, first to demand colonial reform and to examine civilizations in the Philippines before and after the arrival of the Spanish, and later to formulate nationalist arguments. By the 1880s, the writings of Filipino intellectuals found an audience in newly established German scientific associations, such as the German Society for Anthropology, Ethnology, and Prehistory, and German-language periodicals dealing with anthropology, ethnology, geography, and folklore.

  • The Discourse Organization of Philippine University Newspaper Opinion Columns
    The discourse organization of Philippine university newspaper opinion columns ilfre ariel apas University of Santo Tomas, Manila, The Philippines [email protected] Abstract Recent studies on text organization have focused mostly on business documents, academic texts, and certain newspaper articles such as editorials and news stories. However, the organization of opinion articles found in university-level newspapers has not been formally investigated. Therefore, this study attempts to determine whether these articles are written in accordance to journalistic writing principles. A total of 45 opinion articles were taken and served as the study corpus. These articles were analyzed based on Ho’s (2001) framework, as supported by the principles of macrostructure and the features of editorials in journalistic riting he fndings indicate that the discourse structure of Philippine newspaper opinion articles employs the two-move pattern in the orientation, exposition, and summation locks, here to freuently used specifc steps are found in each lock he fndings suggest that university students adhere to a prescried journalistic tet organization, although there is also a tendency to deviate from it. Furthermore, it is possible that their judicious choices in using a particular step may have been inuenced y the riters ojective of effectively communicating their opinion to a wide variety of readers.
