Support for the Sumilao Farmers

On March 1, Saturday, 144 farmers would be arriving in Manila to
prepare for the "much-anticipated" march around Malacañang to call on
GMA to enforce its decision revoking the land conversion by isuuing a
cease and desist order on SMFI.

The march around Malacañang would be entitled MARTSA or March for
Agrarian Reform, Truth, Social Justice and Accountability. Everyday,
beginning March 3, the farmers would march from 7am until 6pm.
Afterwards, they would proceed to Caritas, which would serve as their
camp while the MARTSA is on ongoing.

In line with this, we would like to once again ask for your support
for our brothers from Sumilao, Bukidnon by donating any of the
following:

* 144 pieces of mats or banig

* 7 gas stoves and gas

* cooking utensils (i.e. 7 na malalaking kawali, 14 na kaldero, 7
sandok and 160 plates)

U can also sponsor either their lunch or dinner. A meal will cost Php
11, 200 (P70 x 160 pax). It would also be better if you can join them
during their meals in Caritas.

Please call our local numbers 5090 or 5091 if you wish to donate.

Thank you!

The Pathways kids are going places literally!

Dear Friend,

We'd like to share with you some of our students' recent successes:

ARCHIE DOLIT (V-BS ECE, ADMU) was part of the Ateneo team that won
Second Place in the recent SMART-SWEEP contest held in Cebu. They win
a cash prize of P 300,000 and Ateneo receives an equivalent amount in
the form of grants.
The SWEEP Innovation and Excellence Awards is one of SMART?s major
initiatives under SWEEP, its pioneering industry-academe partnership
that seeks to help raise the level of technology and engineering
education in the country.
REGINALD BUENO (II-BS Educational Psychology, DLSU) will be a Student
Ambassador going on a 10-day visit to Japan as part of the Japan-East
Asia Network of Exchange for Students and Youths (JENESYS) Programme.

Reggie was selected by the National Youth Commission in conjunction
with the Japan International Cultural Center (JICC) of the Embassy of
Japan and the Japan International Cooperation Center (JICE).

The JENESYS Programme, funded by the Japanese Government and in
partnership with the ASEAN Secretariat, aims to deepen understanding
of the different facets of the Japanese society including politics,
diplomacy, economics and culture and to form the basis of future
vision and construct firm solidarity among Asian countries which will
promote mutual understanding of the future generation of ASEAN and
East Asia Summit member countries.

MITCHIE BONCODIN (II-AB International Studies, Miriam College) will
spend her first semester of junior year at the Royal Melbourne
Institute of Technology (RMIT), University of Australia on full
scholarship! Miriam College's International Studies Department
nominated Mitchie after going through comprehensive screening and
deliberations on the entire sophomore batch of IS majors at Miriam
College.

Archie, Reggie and Mitchie are just some of the students nurtured by
the Pathways program since they were in high school. Through our
academic and self-enhancement programs and the partnerships we have
forged with universities, foundations and like-minded individuals, we
now see these students slowly grow into confident, successful young
adults now giving pride not just to their families, but to their
schools and the country as well!

Archie Dolit and Reggie Bueno are scholars under the Offices of
Admission & Aid of the Ateneo de Manila University and De La Salle
University respectively.

Mitchie Boncodin is a scholar of the JCAP Program. JCAP was initiated
by US-based Filipina and distinguished Miriam alum, Dr. Josefina
Jayme-Card as a way of her giving back to the Philippines. Ayala
Foundation and Ateneo-Pathways to Higher Education manage the program
in the Philippines.
These organizations along with the many young volunteers who mentored
them since high school are just some of the many people we have to
thank for enabling Archie, Reggie and Mitchie to shine. It just
confirms our belief that it takes an entire village to raise a child
and look at them now!

Congratulations to you Archie, Reggie and Mitchie! We are all very
proud of you!

Supporting a Pathways student?s allowance through college costs only P
12,000 per year (or P 1,000 a month), while sponsoring a high school
student through our two-month summer school program ? Alay ni Ignacio
(ANI) costs only P 1,500 per student.

Pathways to Higher Education is a five-year old education reform
program of the Ateneo de Manila University. To date, it has helped
bridge over 500 deserving but financially challenged students to
quality colleges and universities while nurturing another 500 high
school students to enter and complete college and contribute
positively to society.

University Physical Plant personnel JOSEPHY ALMOSERA, EUGINE BULATAO, FIDEL MANAOG, HIGINO HERMANO, CESAR BALBOS and DAMIAN PALMERO rushed to put out the fire. The fire was believed due to faulty electrical wiring. Nobody was injured.



Unlocked cars: The number of cars found unlocked in the Loyola Heights campus is still alarming.



Two cars were found unlocked at the Northwest carpark at night with valuables inside. This is really a clear invitation to be robbed of valuables including laptops.

Motorists are URGED to lock their vehicles while they are parked or after parking them.



At 11:20 a.m. last Wednesday, 20 February three males were accosted by Loyola Schools guard SG FERNANDO G PEROCHE at the Quad area for not wearing their ID. While they claimed to be Ateneo students, they could not produce any ID. They were invited to the security office where they admitted that they were not Ateneo students. In the presence of ADSA personnel, they were released and warned not to loiter on campus.

TRAFFIC: Concrete barriers at the U-turn slots are structurally stronger than a speeding SUV. This was proven last Friday, 22 February at the U-turn under the Gate 2.5 pedestrian footbridge. The lady driver of a northbound SUV inadvertently hit five of the concrete barriers when she dozed off while driving at 1:30 a.m. The air bag saved her from injuries.



Campus security responded to the accident and extended assistance to the victim. This is done by security in all cases of accidents in front of Ateneo.



A High School parent who was involved in a similar accident last Thursday, 31 January wrote to campus security and commended the action of the guards who instinctively extended assistance to victims of the U-turn barriers in the area.

BlueREP Presents BAT BOY THE MUSICAL!

BlueREPERTORY
on its 16th year
presents

BAT BOY
THE MUSICAL

Story and Book Keythe Farley & Brian Fleming
Music & Lyrics Laurence O'Keefe

Straight from the tabloid headlines comes BAT BOY, a dark and funny critically-acclaimed rock musical about love and mutilation.

Bat Boy The Musical chronicles the story of a boy with bat-like ears and needle teeth, who is found in a cave and is later adopted by a human family that tries to teach him the ways of a civilized society. Bat Boy's struggle to be "human" and to be accepted is at the core of this moving and surprisingly hilarious modern day musical.

Leading the talented cast is Marvin Ong as Bat Boy together with Laura Cabochan as his foster mother, Meredith. With direction and choreography by Repertory Philippines veteran Robbie Guevara (Fiddler On The Roof), musical direction by Laura Cabochan, and lights and sounds design by Voltaire De Jesus, Bat Boy promises to be a bloody, heart-racing musical unlike anything that BlueREPERTORY has done before.

BAT BOY The Musical plays on the week of March 7
at the Fine Arts Exhibit Hall, Ateneo de Manila University.

This production is brought to you by Havaianas and Orange Segment, the official print media partner of Bat Boy, together with KC De Venecia Foundation, Mary Grace, and Tree's Company.

For Details and Ticket Reservations, contact Hannah at 0922-894617.
