Bro. Atty. Roldan Calejesan is one of the 1,451 out of 5,903 examinees who passed the 2009 Bar Exams. Only 24.5 percent passed the grueling examinations even though the passing rate was lowered from 75 percent to 71 percent, while the disqualification grade in Taxation has been lowered from 49 percent to 45 percent. Two San Beda graduates led all the passers as they took the first and second spot respectively. ADMU graduates, however, secured majority of the "top 10" slots. UP Diliman completed the top 10 list with two of its graduates. The list of passers was released at around 10 p.m last Friday. Justice Antonio Eduardo B. Nachura who is the chair of the 2009 Committee on Bar Examinations read out the names of the passers in front of an anxious crowd. Traditionally, the Bar exams are held on four consecutive Sundays of September, but the high court had to reset the last exam Sunday in 2009 to October 4 due to widespread flooding caused by tropical storm Ondoy (Ketsana). Last year’s examinations also marked the first time the two-examiners-per-subject policy was implemented. Each of the eight Bar exam subjects was divided into two parts, with a designated examiner assigned to a specific scope. Atty. Calejesan graduated with a degree in BS Business Administration from UP Diliman before taking up Bachelor of Laws in San Sebastian College Recoletos. source: www.gmanews.tv
After several years of regimented life and difficult trainings in the academy, Bro. Edmund Horca '04 joins 226 cadets of Masidlak Class 2010 (Mandirigmang Sibol ng Dakilang Lahing Kayumanggi) as they graduate from the Philippine Military Academy, the premier military academy in Asia, last March 1. Vice Adm. Leonardo Calderon Jr., PMA superintendent, said the class was the product of a reformed curriculum, part of a major reform undertaking called the PMA Roadmap to 2015. The new technology-dedicated curriculum would be part of a P6-million PMA master plan that would be drawn up by a special review team, Calderon said. With the rank of a 2lt, Bro. Horca '04 will join the corp of engineers in the Philippine Army. Prior to his graduation, he served as S7: Civil Military Officer and S4: Supply officer of Delta company. Bro. Horca is the second Pan Xenian to graduate from PMA after Bro. Leon Nilo Dela Cruz '72 who is now the Regional Director of PNP Region 3. Meanwhile, another Pan Xenian is set to graduate from PMA next year. Gov. Andy Quiocho '04, who is the Class president of PMA Class 2011, will join the Philippine Marines after his academy training. He is also the incoming Editor-in-chief of The Corps, the Official publication of the Philippine Military Academy. Gov. Quiocho graduated with a degree in Political Science from UP Diliman before joining the Philippine Military Academy in 2007. He served as the Governor of Pan Xenia from 2006-2007.
Rising to the challenge of serving the student body, three brods and sisses won positions in college and university student councils. Brod Justin Alfred “JAP” Palino '09 won as Engineering Student Council MMM (Materials, Metallurgical and Mining) Representative; sis Michelle “Micha” Arias triumphed as the Law Student Government Treasurer, while Sis Jessica “Ezie” Mariazeta was elected as USC Councilor.
On February 14, 2010, thousands flocked the UP Sunken Garden and became part of history with Loverage4: Illumine Nation, the first ever UP Fair Sunday night. The said concert aimed to enlighten the youth and rekindle their love and respect for the nation through a night of music and events about responsible and good governance in light of the upcoming 2010 national elections. An exclusive performance was given by Rico Blanco, a singer well-known for his patriotic advocacy through music while scintillating fireworks from Enchanted Kingdom illumined the skies by midnight.
To help reaffirm the responsibility of every UP student, the Pan Xenia Fraternity and Adelfe Enu Crea Sorority hosted a talk entitled “Living UP to the Duty: Establishing Social Value through Business” as part of the 2nd semester Alternative Classroom Learning Experience (ACLE) last January 28 at the room 309 of the College of Business Administration. |
