mSTORICAL PAPERS AND DOCUMENTS
ON THE INVESTITURE OF ABELARDO SAMONTE
By PRESIDENT FERDINAND E. MARCOS
(Remark! at the Inoessitere Ceremony 01 the First Chancellor 0/ the Un-irersit)' 0/ the. Philippi-nes
1974)
VOL. V. NO.1
at Los Banos, 11 ]alJllary

A great institution deserves an eminent administrator. Thus


do we celebrate today the investiture of Dr. Abelardo G.
Samonre as the first chancellor of the University of the Philip-
pines at Los Banos.
The University of the Philippines and the College of Agricul-
ture were both landmarks in the landscape of knowledge. It is
thus fining that the V.P. College of Agriculture, should be the
first unit of the V.P. to achieve autonomy.
The appointment of Dr. Samcnte as its first chancellor is a
recognition of the growing importance of this institution. Beyond
its growth in physical size, it has risen in irs relevance to na_
rional development. The UPlB has three principal missions: the
acquisition of knowledge through research, its transmission through
instruction, and its application through e ~ t e n s i o n and comma-
nit}' work.
Dr, Samonte is well-known to all (hose who have followed
closely the development of (he University of the Philippines.
His achievements in the fields of management and public ad-
ministration are also well-known. As a teacher, he has estab-
lished himself solidly in the minds and hearts of numerous
students.
He brings, therefore, to rhe, UPIB the wealth of his ex-
perience and knowledge. I expect that he will enrich this institu-
tion and leave behind an even greater and more glorious
heritage. It pleases me then to wish him success on his investi-
ture today.

NEVER LET THE UGHTS GO OUT

(Remarks at the lnvestirsre Ceremony oj Dr. Abelardo G. Samonte as First Chancellor 0/ the Unirersiry 0/ the Philippines
at Los Bahos. 1I ]:wlIary 1974)
Mr. Chancellor:
This ceremony of investiture formalizes an existing faCt-the
facr. namely, that for eight months now vou have served as the
first Chancellor of the first autonomous university to become a
member of the Univcrsirv of the Philippines System. But this is
not merely a ritual of confirmation. It is an occasion to aOCH
publicly to the wisdom of the decision taken by the Board of
Regents last May in placing you at the helm of this insritunon.
This is our way of saying, "Well done, Me. Chancellor!"
\'\!e have worked together to conserve the strengths and ex-
cellences of the University of the Philippines at Los Danos. Those
strengths and excellences of course lie in the disciplines mainly
concerned with agriculture, forestry and related sciences. But we
also recognize that the brilliance of the academic constellation that
is Los Baiios would be enhanced by giving it the breadth, depth
and height of a true Univcrsirv. You haw: cooperated lurarl),
with us ro achieve this goal.
Your investiture coincides with the first anniversary f)f the
~ ------
establishment of the University of the Philippines System. As
a ranking member of the group that prepared the new charter
of the System, and as the First Chancellor of this first autonomous
university of the System, you have alreadv left your mark on the
history of this great institution. In a few more months you wilt
be completing the first year of your term, even 'IS 1 will be ap-
proaching the end of my own. It is an occasion that invites
certain reflections, including the comforting thought chat when
the time comes I will be leaving the University in very good
hands.
i\ly optimism is based on the knowledge rhar you share with me
the belief that the University of the Philippines can best serve
the enduring interest of the nation, not alone by helping through
reaching, research and extension service ro provide more and
better food and clothing. shelter and healing for our people, but
also by embracing forever the true vocation of a University,
which is the unending search for truth and tireless pursuit
of knowledge, a commitment to creative speculnrion and funda-

mental thought, in a word, by placing itself resolutely in the
service of ideas.
In this time of cnses-energy crisis and otherwise-the word
has gone out to damp the lights all over the nation. Let us dim
the lights in the streets, in the farms and factories, in the
coffee-shops, even in OUf homes if need be, but let us never let
the lights go out in the University. For as long as the lights ace
rurned on in the University. our land will never be plunged in
total darkness, and our people wilt be able to live and learn,
work and eat their daily rice, by the light of freedom from the
lamp of truth.
A UNIVERSITY'S RESPONSE TO THE CHALLENGE OF DEVELOPMENT
BY DR. ABELARDO G. SAMOr-,.-rn
(lndugfmll Address Delit1ered O'J bis lnoestiture as the First Chancellor of tho V.P. at Los Banos, 11 }allf1l1ry 1974)

The Honorable Chairman and Members of the Doard of Regents,


Excellencies, Distinguished Guests, Colleagues, Friends, Ladies
and Gentlemen:
I accept with all humility my duties and responsibilities as
Chancellor of the University of the Philippines at los Banos.
The presence of the high officials and dignitaries, our dis-
tinguished guests and friends, and the messages of esteem and
good wishes from colleagues in the V.P. System as well as other
institutions of higher learning here and abroad, humble me
even more. Indeed I am fully aware that the honors and the
confidence expressed in this morning's ceremonies are ad-
dressed not so much to me as a person, but to the institution
which I am privileged to serve.
We owe His Excellency, President Ferdinand E. Marcos a
special debt of gratitude for placing within our reach the
challenging opportunities available to our autonomous University
in its quest for greater service to the nation and humanity.
We thank President Salvador P. lopez for his leadership and
reassuring pledge of increasing autonomy. Today's honors arc
likewise richly deserved by a number of people-from Deans
Copeland and Ahern to Vice-President Umali-who have given
selflessly of their time and of themselves to make the V.P.
at Los Banos what it is coda}'. Our students and alumni who
have maintained our fine record of excellence should share
in the laurels; so should our friends and colleagues from whose
unfailing support and cooperation we draw the strength and
inspiration to excel ourselves. To all of them, I give my word
to help realize our common dream of making the D.P. at
Los Banos a university for an seasons.
From lUultiYcrsil:" to Mulrteanipus University
Presidential Decree No. 58 issued on November 20, 1972,
marked the advent of a new academic constellation-the Univer-
sity of the Philippines System. It transformed the D.P. from a
multiversity to a muhicampus university, with the D.P. ar los
Banos as its first autonomous campus. The implication of such a
transformation may be better appreciated if we went back to the
basic concept of nniversites which literally means "a turning into
one:' ''\lie recall that the first universities were indeed constituted
by men with different backgrounds but united in the common
pursuit of knowledge and truth. But with the splintering of
knowledge into an increasing number of disciplines and specialties,
many insrirurions of higher learning ceased to be universities
and have become, as Clark Kerr puts it. multiversities.
The multiversity, with a multiplicity of goals and interests,
faces the threat of "institutional overload." In response to this
threat, .sorrtc European universities divided among separate insti-
tutions the functions of (caching, research, and public service
thereby negating the unity of these three. .
The mulricampus university was evolved as an alternative.
Under this setup, multiple goals adopted in response TO diverse
educational interests are achieved by a division of responsibilities
among separate campuses governed by a WOlman board.
As such, the U.P. at los Banos can foster a single community
of scholars dedicated to a common responsibility. It can develop
its own institutional identity, while mamrauung the standards
of academic excellence and relevance of the U.P. System under
one Board of Regents.
Developing an Institutional Identity
In developing its institutional identity, the U.P. at los Banos
must find its proper place as a member of a mulricampus uni-
versity in a developing country. I\S a new autonomous university,
it must evolve into a fuller institution of higher learning without
unnecessarily duplicating the functions and programs of other
campuses in the Ll.P. System. It must be sensitive and respon-
sive to the needs and problems of Philippine society. Above 'all,
its drive for excellence and achievement in the sciences, the
arts, and the professions must be conditioned by an unswerving
commitment to national welfare and development.
The UP. at los Banos must be keenly aware of its strengths
and potentialities, and alert to the opportunities for service
through education. But it must, first of all, be open to the
whole universe of knowledge and be imbued with the philo-
sophy which underlies any modern university worthy of the
name.
Under-lying Philosophy
The modern university remains a center of learning, although
it is now cast in a mold different from its traditional counter-
part. It stilt considers instruction as a major function, but now
recognizes research as equally important. 110re recently, it
views extension or public service as a function ensuring rele-
vance. All its efforts in acquiring knowledge through research,
imparting it through instruction, and applying it through
public service are directed towards the development of the
whole man. But the individual's enrichment and self-fulfill-
ment depend on his success in generating the same expan-
siveness in the people around him. Thus, university education
aimed at the common good enriches not only the individual,
but also the society of which he is part. In brief, the modern
university fosters education with a social conscience.
Urbcntatiou to Development
The logical outcome of an education with a social can;
science is a commitment TO national Jc\'elopmcnt. The U.P. at
Los Banos is thus committed.
Development, as we see it, is the actualization of porcntiali.,
ties, the release of creative energies, and the realization of
people's capabilities for the improvement of the quality of life.
J( is a seamless web. The modernization of the urban and
rural sectors arc inrer.depcndent in much the same way that
economic, political, social, and cultural de"elopment are inter-

acting elements of one syndrome. Furthermore, development
takes place within a historical context In which internal as
well as external influences impinge on rhe process of societal
change.
It follows that a sound approach to development must be
holistic and integrated. Any developmental program must
focus on people as an end in themselves, not means to an
end. Only that which is promotive of truth, goodness, beauty
and unity is genuinely developmental.
The Rural Problem
In the Philippines, (he need is for development of the
rural areas where abour three-fourths of OUf entire population
live in relative want. \'{Te ate a nation of small farmers. Our
production is low and OUf income meager; 90 percent of
families with incomes of less (han PI,OOO.OO a year live in the
rural areas. Our rural population live in a culture of poverty,
ignorance, ill-health, and resentment. In them, one finds a mini-
mal sense of solidarity with the rest of the nation.
These manifestations of non-development point to a cause
rooted in our society. For centuries, our socio-cultural system
has imprisoned most of our people in perpetual dependence. It
made of the many mere pawns in the game of partisan power-
politics, legitimized "hewers of wood and drawers of water" for
the landed elite, grist for diploma mills, and an alienated mass
sporadically erupting in violent resentment over immemorial
wrongs. Rural backwardness was built into the very social order
wherein our rural masses could not move forward or even
desire to get moving.
Initial Attempts at Rural Development
Amidst a growing agrarian unrest in the early post-war years,
many studies on rural Philippines such as the Bell, Hardie,
and Rivera-MecMillan reports, generated interest in the improve-
ment of the barrios. Among the initial efforts towards that end
were the community school experiment and rural improvement
projects of civic organizations like the PRRM and PRUCIS.
These were capped by the dramatic moves of President Ramon
Magsaysay to uplift rhe masses through a nation-wide program of
community development. In the meantime, efforts to increase
productivity on the farms were being exerted, and land reform
was making progress in a slow, halting fashion. These attempts
at developing the rural areas were, on the whole, palliatives-
tinkering at bits and pieces. Attacking the problem at its roor,
reforming Philippine society would have been quixotic perhaps
under the old regime.
Rural Development in the New Society
Today, under the aegis of the New Society, rural develop-
ment becomes realistically feasible. One of the first acts of
President Marcos under the New Dispensation was the pro-
mulgation of Presidential Decree 27 emancipating our farmers
from the bondage of tenancy and restructuring our agrarian
social order. Thereafter, nation-wide programs to increase agra-
cultural producriviry, such as Maragana 99 and Pala)'an ng
Bay/m, were launched.
The formation of barangays, the Samahang Nayon, barrio
cooperatives. and a social security and welfare system for
farmers affirms our rural people's role as partners in national
development.. These and the rest 'of the PLEDGES programs
aim at democratizing power: economic, political, and social.
Their basic theme is that of sharing guided by JUStice and
inspired by compassion.
How do we at the U.P.at Los Banos view these development
programs and projects in their totality? \Vle cannor afford to De
mere spectators of the historic events encompassing us. We feel
the need (Q mobilize and integrate all our efforts to improve
life in rural Philippines.
Integrated rural development demands the skillful grafting of
modern technologies on to the best of our traditional values and
life-styles. For instance, the optimal application of modern
production tcchnclcgy can be effected in and through modes
of organization' imbued with the bayaniban spirit such as the
compact farm. Such ar:t integrated development will be not only
for Filipinos but also of and' by Filipinos. Arid' being Philippine,
it will endure.
UPLB as an Instrument for Integrated Rural Development
With its unique institutional strengths, the U.P. at Los Banos
can and should play a vital role' in achieving integrated rural
development in our country. It has a substantial pool of agricul-
rural scientists, engineers, statisticians, forest resource managers
as well as communications specialists, humanists, economics and
other social scientists who are well-trained and oriented to the
study and solution of major problems besetting Philippine society,
especially in the rural areas. It has modern laboratories and
probably the best library in agriculture, forestry and related
sciences in Southeast Asia. Moreover, it- has a tradition of scienti-
fic objectivity, a passion for creativity, and. a reputation for
independent fact-finding and problem-solving. It is in the best
position to adopt a collegial.multidisciplinary approach to de-
velopment. Lastly, its three functions of teaching, research, and
extension provide the mutually reinforcing.. impetus essential for
building up high-level manpower, extending the frontiers of
knowledge, and applying that knowledge to achieve integrated
rural development,
GuideIil1les for Thought and Action
Towards achieving integrated rural development, we at the
U.P, at Los Banos will adopt the following guidelines: First, we
will strive to integrate our teaching, research and extension
functions. For one's teaching is enriched by his research and
extension work which, in turn, is enriched by insights and
feedback from the classroom. Thus, the so-called primacy of one
function over the other, the alleged relevance of one and the
irrelevance of (he rest are old issues in academe which can only
lead to sterile controversies. Our basic task is to strike at the
optimum balance of these functions with due regard to im-
mediate concerns as well as to' long-term development goals.
Secondly, we will encourage maximum interaction among the
many disciplines and closest collaboration among our colleges
and institutes. Many problems of society are better understood
and solved by the collegial-multidisciplinary approach. \V/e
must, therefore, work. "for an interrelated system of knowledge,
for a balance of activities, for a unificat-ion of knowing, feel-
ing, and acting, for an integrated community.'
Curriculum Changes
\Vith these basic guidelines in mind, we will institute changes
in our programs, organization, and methods.
In our teaching program, we will revise the structure of. the
different curricula and the content of COurses in close consulta-
tion with the end-users-the government, private' sector, pro-
fessional associations, other educational insdeudons." and. the
students themselves. Vile' propose.. to arrest the, proliferation .of
courses .and the undue lengthening of .degree 'programs. We
intend to provide greater flexibility, coberence; and relevance

in our curricula, and foster the goal of achievement rather than


escription in the getting of academic degrees.
The adoption of more effective and innovative methods of
teaching shall also be our concern. Learning is not imposed
but experienced. One of OUf goals in teaching, therefore, is
not primarily to inform "the student, but to inspire him to ac-
quire knowledge, to think critically, and to arouse his curiosity
50 that learning becomes for him a lifelong adventure. Small
-group discussions, seminars, independent study programs, and
field work will be increasingly used as methods of instruction.
To make our academic curricula more responsive to national
manpower needs, we will consider offering degrees with ma-
jars. in agrarian reform, cooperatives, agricultural administra-
tion, and related fields. We will also welcome joint degree
programs and consortia with other institutions of higher learn-
ing to expand our degree-granting capabilities, especially on
the masteral and doctoral levels. Thus, we expect (Q increase
our graduate enrolment and diversify advanced studies, while
maintaining model undergraduate programs in agriculture, fo-
restry, the sciences, and the arts. We hope: (Q assist ocher
eduational institutions, especially agricultural colleges, in up-
grading their faculty and improving their academic programs.
At the same time, we have to take concrete steps to help di-
rectly in the education of men and women who will provide
professional services and assume positions of leadership in the
rural communities. We are considering the adoption of a quota
system for the admission to our University of bright and de-
serving students strongly committed to go back to the barrios
after their studies.
Among the curricular proposals that have aroused excitement
among science schools is the Integrated Academic Program in
the Sciences. It is an honors program for undergraduate and
graduate education in science for the cream of high school
graduates and science teachers. Not course-bound, it enables the
student-through validating examinations, independent study
programs, and actual involvement in scientific research-to
achieve a higher level of scientific education within the shortest
possible time .
Another curricular proposal that promises to attract talented
young people to this campus is an undergraduate rommunica-
tion arts program. A balanced combination of the liberal and
the professional studies, it" aims to give students a humanistic
background with a professional orientaion. Towards his goal,
a Center for the Performing Arts is part of our plans. It will
do for the humanities what the SEARCA does for the agri-
cultural sciences. Through these proposals, our Univerisry ex-
pects to participate actively in the impassioned search for out
national identity rhrougb sustained learning of Philippine arts
and culture. By joining the mainstream of the culural renais-
sance nOW stirring the country, the U.P. at Los Banos can help
interpret our past, evaluate our present, and shape our expcc-
tarions of the future.
MultidiscipIinary_ Research
We have adopted measures to institutionalize the
ment of research- for maximum utilization of our staff;s nme
and resources, and for integrated research programs which can
id the greatest impact on national development.
proVl e _ . .
I d
d there is need to encourage more mulridisdplinarv
nee, h h' h
collaboration among our deparunents and colleges. In t e Ig
priority area of land reform, for. problems of

, .
of achieving increased productivity, adequate and cr . It,
viable cooperatives, and satisfactory marketing
require a major research and social action effort involving not
only our Agrarian Reform Institute but also the six other col-
leges and institutes of the Ll.P. at Los Banos. The same could
be true of environmental research and regional development
studies.
During our incumbency, a new administrative structure for re-
search has" been established. We have created a University Re-
search Council which I formulates a general research strategy and
an integrated research program for the entire University. A
Technical Evaluation Group has also been organized to serve as
a unified body for the screening of research proposals within the
framework of the approved research program. This Group also
fosters and induces multidisciplinary efforts in priority areas of
research, including the formation of task forces to identify, define,
and help solve major problems of national development through
policy and problem-oriented research. Thus. this new research
structure is now providing a more integrated and effective system
of research planning, coordination, evaluation, and implementa-
tion,
Innovative Approaches to Extension
Similarly, we have recently established the University Exten-
sion Center to coordinate and integrate our extension or public
service activities. We view extension as an educational endeavor,
as a process of influencing people in the rural areas to learn
to do things better and of imbuing them with proper values
and attitudes, so that they will become more self-reliant, produc-
tive, and responsible citizens. Since extension is addressed to
the whole country, the University must determine the kind and
level of extension work for which it is more suited and through.
which it can best contribute to the national effort. These should
include programs that seek to (rain rraincrs, influence change
agents, and develop leaders. With its strong commitment to
extension, the U.P. at Los Banos shall intensify experimentation
with innovative extension approaches and strategies (0 rural de-
velopment at the barrio and municipality level, such as our Social
Laboratory in Pila, Laguna, and at the provincial, regional, and
national levels as well.
Sharing our Staff Resources with the Gov,ernment
One notable trend -in the past decade is the increasing demand
of the government for consultative services and technical assist-.
ance from our University. Upon official request, a considerable
number of our faculty have been detailed to key governmental
agencies. In addition, many more are consultants not only in the
regular agencies, but also in commissions or task forces concerned
with agricultural productivity, land reform, forestry, cooperatives,
educational reform, and government reorganization. The Uni-
versity welcomes such involvement and shall continue to coop-
erate with government in these endeavors, for as Don Price
perceptively noted: "The range of government policies and the
depth of study necessary to deal with them adequately can be
matched only by the resources of the University as a whole:'
However, we would recommend improvements 1D the arrange-
ments for collaboration.
We gropose to share our staff resources on a programmed.
institutional basis. The selection of high-talent men for detail
to other government agencies should be based on mutual con-
sultation and long-range programming. In that way, these details
will not only redound to the benefit of (he government agencies,
but also advance faculty development through practical involve-
ment in public policy and administration in a planned way. We
are happy to report that the Secretary of Agriculture and Natural
Resources and Others have agreed to this proposition, and we hope
that many more will follow suit.

We also envision the U_P. at Los Banos assuming a leadership
role in education and research in Southeast Asia, particularly as
applied to integrated rural development. We will continue our
efforts in the education and training of nationals of other
Southeast Asian countries, in cooperation with the SEARCA,
the Food and Agricultural Organization, the International Rice
Research Institute, the Agricultural Development Council, the
U.S. AID, and others. Furthermore, we intend to _expand our
involvement in regional cooperation in terms of more collabora-
tive research and faculty exchange,
Indeed, the U.P. at Los Banos is in a good position to
enhance regional cooperation and mutual assistance in rural
development. It has the experts and facilities. It also has a
long exposure to and experience in such regional undertaking.
Likewise, 'we. could extend more consultative services to the
government on an institution-wide basis. While we have accom-
modated whenever possible government requests for the special
detail of some faculty members. we realize that OUf staff reo
sources are not inexhaustible. But we can sustain and even expand
OUf service functions to the government by adopting what may
be described as the "general staff" approach. This means that
instead of being dispersed to perform operational work. in other
agencies, the bulk of our departmental faculties can be kept
intact to perform the functions of a- general staff 0"[ technical
advisory group co such agencies. By contributing not merely
individuals but a considerable rime of [he faculty as a whole,
the University can realize greater opportunities for service to
the government and the Nation, At the same time, the faculty
could sustain their teaching and research activities for the produc-
tion of highly qualified graduates to man vital POSts in develop-
mental agencies.
Center for Policy a"nd Development Studies.
Beyond programmed special details and general staff work
for the government, we propose the establishment of a Center
for Policy and Development Studies. This Center shall be an
integrating mechanism to mobilize and harness the various
disciplines in the task of helping the policy-makers in problem
analysis and policy formulation, particularly 10 agricultural de-
velopment. Among the functions of this Center will be the
organization of policy conferences, seminars, and workshops where
policy-makers, scientists, and technocrats from the public and
private sectors can interact. Such interaction or dialogues can
greatly help identify relevant areas for policy studies. The policy-
oriented studies will undergo constant feedback and reaction
through further dialogues. Thus, the policy recommendations of
the Center will be the combined product of the knowledge of
the scientists and the practical insights of the decision-makers.
The will, in effect, serve as an information base for
policy-makers, and as a catalyst in the formulation of public
policy.
In sum, the University can and should serve as a major con-
sulting firm of the government, an "intellectual holding company
of the nation."
UPLB
Asia
as a Center for Rural Development in Southeast
+
It should, therefore; improve endespaod its capabilities to help
other Southeast Asian universities; in collaboration with interna-
tional or regional institutions and foreign universities.
Increasing UPLB's Capabilities
Our manifold functions :require the sustained upgrading and
expansion of our manpower capabilities. Our faculty and staff
development will be intensified. Our personnel will be motivated
to achieve their full potential, so -"that .they can contribute their
best to our University. Thus, we will provide them with oppor-
tunities for job enrichment and for optimal use of their talents
and training. We will improve the system of incentives and
rewards. For a more democratic management, we will encourage
faculty, student and employee participation in decision-making,
particularly on matters in which they have both competence and
concern. In brief, we hope to raise individual and group morale,
and strengthen the esprit de corps of the whole University.
We will, at the same time, adopt plans for further institution
building to meet increasing demands and to our unique
institutional strengths. Considering the mutually-reinforcing effects-.
of teaching, research, and extension,. the' proposed Institute on
Forestry Research should be expanded to Included forestry train-
ing, and made a unit of the U.P. at los Banos where it can be
reinforced by the faculties of the College of Forestry and other
colleges and institutes. In view "of the broad range of knowledge
and expertise required for a dynamic and integrated development
of the rural areas, we envision the expansion of our social science
departments and the establishment of new schools or institutes
of human ecology, of economics and management, of develop.
ment communications, and of agricultural engineering,"
For all these, the D.P. at los Banos will need the increasing
supporr of the government, the alumni, the foundations and
other aid-giving
A Vision of Unity
Many a year hence, looking back through the corridors of time;
we shall recall with a deep sense of _satisfaction our University's
active role in building up the New Philippines. We dream that
by then the V.P. at Los Banos ;hall have fully become-a place
of learning where teacher-scholars and students untiringly work :
at transmuting knowledge into wisdom, reshaping the about
the nature of things to the human scale, and orienting it to human
understanding, human need, and. human hope. Having become ..
that, the University shall have fused the sciences and the human-
ities into one universe of discourse. . ".
We dream that by then, science and technology-in our country
shall have been given both a heart and a- soul, for ... no amount
of knowledge in the head can make up lack of feeling in the
heart. On their part, the humanities shall have walked less along
the road of pursuing knowledge for its own sake and. more along
that which sees in the arts a means of achieving rhe good life
for one, and, consequently, for all.
If these shall come to pass, we'ehould then have a culturally
reawakened and fully developed Philippines. May this dream
realized be" the vibrant testimonial to our faith' in ourselves, in
the Filipino, and in all men.

a. Internal Messenger- responsible for performing messenger-
ial work within the university.
b. External Messenger - responsible for rendering messengerial
services within and outside the University.

Messenger, the performance of which involves greater risk, in
that the incumbent has to travel to and from his work area, allow-
ing himself to be exposed to road accidents and inclement
weather.

The posmons of Foreman are generally found in the Physical
Plant. Incumbents of these positions are prim-arily first-line su-
pcrvisors. They carry and interpret management policies to the
workers. As supervisors, they maintain harmon}' among workers
by adjusting errors and complaints. They determine work pro-
cedures of groups of skilled workers such as electricians, plumbers,
carpenters, painters, masons and mechanics. Upgrading of the
class Foreman from Ranges 4 and 5 to Ranges 5 and 6 will
recognize the supervisory functions of the position and the tech-
nical know-how necessary for the successful performance of the
job.
\'lith the upgrading of the class Foreman and considering the
fact that Mechanic, Heavy Equipment Operator and Electrician
are already allocated at Range 4, Assistant Foreman should be
upgraded to Ranges 4 and 5.
The above upgrading of classes will not entail additional funds.
Employees holding these positions have already reached the
maximum of their ranges.

Sciences, this new rate to be paid by both 'undergraduate and
graduate studeats beginning the next academic year 1974-1975.

ever, their demand for the journals has increased, thus requir-
ing more copies for publication. The increased journal fee is
minimal considering the prevailing rate of printing.

mSTORICAL PAPERS AND DOCUMENTS


THE MINDANAO EXECUTIVE DEVELOPMENT ACADEMY-
A JOINT UP-MSU UNDERTAKING
By DR. SALVADOR P. LOPEZ
President, University 0/ the Philippmes
(KeJ1101e address delivered at the opening ceremonies 0/ the Pvrss Session 0/ the Mindanao Bxecutioe Derelopmeru Academy at
the Davao Insular Hotel, Daoao Ci-ty, 6 ]atJU4ry 1974)
\'Vc are living in a very excmng time. The world is passing
through a 'period of turbulent change that is without precedent
in the history of mankind. Our own country has not escaped
the insistent universal pressure for progress, modernization, ani
perhaps unwittingly, revolution.
The pressure upon a developing nation like our own has been
particularly severe. Handicapped by the legacy of our colonial
past, we find that the goal of national progicsr and develop-
ment is more elusive than we had imagined. If wr: had thought
{hat political independence would serve as our passport to the
promised land, we were quickly undeceived. We soon found that
independence would not automatically bring about our people's
deliverance from hunger, ignorance and disease; it merely gave
us the opportunity to achieve this goal with our own efforts,
unhampered by the chains of colonial subjection.
We found also that a galloping rate of population increase
tended to cancel our the modesr increments in our gross national
product, while an inequitable tax structure, widespread corruption
and unlimited 'free enterprise ensured that the' few who are
already rich would get richer and the many whc arc poor would
become poorer. We found, in effect, that with independence we
had merely had a change of masters. Filipinos were replacing
foreigners in that role, a fact which did nothing to make our
misfortune easier to bear.
In addition, the gap between the rich and the poor nations,
the developed and less developed countries, tended to become
wider rather than narrower. Whereas the industrial nations,
with their vast accumulations of capital, their massive industrial
apparatus, and their superior science and technology have been able
to augment their resources and raise their standards of living, the
developing nations found that despite abundant national re-
sources, their lack of domestic capital and the backward science
and technology ensured that they would never be able to improve
the well-being of their people. The net result is the widening
gap berween uhe affluent and the impoverished nations of the
world, among which latter group our country is yet unhappily
to be counted.
Whereas the developed countries of the \(.(est are already
moving toward the Second Industrial Revolution, the countries of
the Third World still have to negotiate their rake-off toward the
First Industrial Revolution. The degree of our retardation will
deepen with the passage of time.
This is the large background against which the conditiion of
Our country prior to September 21, 1972 should b{. considered.
Proclamation 1081 brought to a dose an unhappy time when
the suffering of our people seemed to be reaching a point
beyond endurance. when something clearly needed to be done,
and done quickly, in order to arrest our nation s headlong rush
toward catastrophe.
President Marcos boldly made the decision and took the action
which he judged to be necessary. By invoking the extraordinary
powers conferred upon him by the Ccnstituuon, he abruptly
brought to a halt the entire political apparatus which we had
slowly and painfully built for seventy years-a machinery of gov-
ernment which we had perhaps uncritically considered as a shining
embodiment of the principles of liberal democracy.
All this done suddenly, with a single stroke of the pen-co
the consternation of many well-meaning liberal democrats, includ-
ing myself. Was it really necessary. we asked, to sacrifice freedom
in the short run in order to preserve liberty In the long run?
Is it ever justifiable to sacrifice the forms of popular government
in order to achieve the substance of the popular good?
I am not privy to the intentions of President Marcos, but we
must assume that he has considered the misgivings of many
citizens such as those expressed in the questions I have just
formulated. He must often have turned in his own mind - the
nagging issues that remain, among these the needs to maintain
a close coordination between ends and means, particularly the
need to maintain a prope.r balance between the people's so-
cially oriented desire for order and discipine and the people's

hnnUARY 28, 1974 Ll.P, GAZElTC


29

individually oriented desire for freedom-that is to say, for an


existence based on a reasonable blend of freedom and respon-
sibility.
At the present juncture, the operative concept in the regime
of martial law under which we live is the concept of responsibility.
President Marcos has opted for a regime of responsive and re-
sponsible government-that is, a government responsive to the
crying needs of our people which can no Iocgcr be postponed
or denied: their need for a better and a mere abundant life;
their hunger for justice and equality and for a speedy redress
of their ancient deprivations and grievances. And in responding
to this deep need and hunger of the people, President Marcos
has dedded to dispense with the old institutions of popular gov-
ernment which were unhappily dominated by the politicians,
far too many of whom were irresponsible or unprtncipled-c-pre.
ferring instead to be guided only by what Ius reason and con-
science tell him to be what is good for the people and what the
people truly desire.
The efficacy of the regime of marciaI law is nowhere more
dramatically illustrated than in the radical measures he has
taken in three major areas of the national life: in agrarian reo
form, in an integrated program of economic development, and
in the promotion of national unity and national integration.
In these three specific areas, he has provided the true rationale
for martial law.
What we are inaugurating here this evening, at these opening
ceremonies of the first session of the Mindanao Executive De-
velopment Academy is in line with at least two of the three
fundamental policy objectives just mentioned. it is in support at
the President's overall program of economic development as well
as of his program of national integration.
The University of the Philippines, as _the nation's principal
in the field of higher education and' high level
manpower training, is' happy to be associated" with our sistel
institution, the Mindanao State University, in 'this undertaking,
As we have conceived it, the :MEDAis not a temporary expedient,
a fly-by-night operation. Its whole object is to upgrade the
managerial competence of the executive in this region, and thus
help bring this great island of Mindanao into the mainstream
of national development, MEDA is not a school where the
directing staff speaks and imparts new knowledge, attitudes and
skills, while the participants listen and learn, rather, MEDA
will serve as a forum for a healthy exchange of ideas, where the
participants, by learning from each other, endeavor to enhance
their own knowledge and enrich their experience.
I said in the beginning that the economic retardation of the
developing countries is mainly due to lack of capital and back-
wardness in science and technology. I should have added a third:
namely, the shortage of managerial skill and executive com-
petence, We may have all the natural resources, all the capital,
even the science and technology required, but if we have not
the skill to organize resources, to supervise operations, to manage
manpower, to plan and execute meaningful projects and programs,
just so long will the goal of development elude our grasp.
As we inaugurate MEDA today, we are in effect providing
the missing link in the chain of national development-the in-
dispensable link of managerial ability and executive competence,

THE REGULATION OF INFORMATION MEDIA


Br DR. SALVADOR P. LOPEZ
President, University of the Phtlij)pmej
(Remark! at the uonooer ceremony for the television equipment donated by the British Government under the Colombo Plan
to the lnstitote of Man Communication, 14 ]a1111ary 1974)
On behalf of the University of the Philippines, I would like
to thank the British Government through you, Me. Ambassador,
for the donation of television equipment for the use of the
Institute of Mass Communication.
As you know, this turnover ceremony has been somewhat
delayed. When the equipment was delivered to the University
about two years ago, Dean Feliciano and I could not immediately
find the money to build the studio. Thanks to President Ferdinand
E. Marcos, the money required was finally given to us last year,
and the equipment has now been installed. In retrospect, we
can now say with satisfaction that the Embucsy s threat to re-
possess the equipment unless it was installed promptly, as stipula-
ted in the terms of the donation, considerably expedited the
release of the necessary funds.
And, so, here we are this morning, Me. Ambassador, in rhis
spanking new television studio, surrounded by bright new tele-
vision equipment operated by the students and professors of our
Institute of Mass Communication. I hope you feel as excited as
I do while they test all this marvellous gadgetry on us. I trust
e.... erything goes well, because if things should go wrong, we would
surely know that the equipment is not to blame.
1 remember the days when, at the behest of Dean Feliciano,
1 used to go to (he old studio of Channel 13 San at odd
hours of the day or night-usually late at niglu-e- In to
videotape an interview as part of a class project or
of the Institute, All rhat is over now, for, any nmc Dean
Feliciano wants to use me for her classes, I can just walk cross
the street.
Now that we have this fully equipped studio, we should add
that the Institute has also the curriculum and the training pro-
gram to match. Thanks to the vision and initiative of Dean
Feliciano and her staff, plus the assistance of VIsiting experts
from Unesco, we do have an adequate and responsive course of
study in the field of broadcast communication. We can be certain.
therefore. that this equipment will not go to waste but will be
fully utilized in connection with the Institute's program of train.
ing and instruction.
In common with the other media-press, radio and the cinema-
the principal thrust of the course of study in television broadcast-
ing will be to maximize the effectiveness of this medium as an
instrument of national development and national unity, I am
sure the British Government would consider their generosity to
have been amply rewarded if this equipment "ill be placed in
the service of these great ends.
The presence here, on this occasion, of Secretary Francisco
Tatad underscores the importance which the government attaches
to the information media, particularly television, of which of
course he is a superstar. (It is a great pleasure, by the way, to
see Secretary Tetad on TV. Calm, collected and self-assured,
speaking in an unhurried and finely modulated voice, and .good-
looking to boot, Secretary Terad's television image provides, -in
my opinion, striking proof of Marshall Mcl.ubao contention that
30 ur. GAZETTE VOL. V, No.2
television is a "cool" medium. I pay this tribute to him and- to
his favorite medium in my capacity as a member of the old
"Gutenberg generation" whose medium is the printed word-a
"hot medium." according to Meluhan.)
And now, surrounded by British equipment and in the pre-
sence of the British ambassador and of Secretary Tatad, I
would like to consider briefly with you the prospect of the
information media and the information profession. Under martial
law, the media arc of course operating under special regulations,
Freedom of the press and of information, as we used to know it,
has been suspended, pending the institution of necessary reforms.
As an old-time journalist, I do not mourn rhe passing of the licen-
tious and irresponsible media of yesteryear; we are well rid of
them, and I hope they will never return to plague us. I would,
however, commend for adoption in our country an information
system on the British model, the essence of that system being, as
is well known, self-restraint and self-control. It ralls for the
establishment of an effective machinery which would enable the
information media to police themselves in accordance with guide-
Jines previously agreed upon. Such machinery would, of course,
have the power ro impose sanctions upon erring institutions or
individuals.
I'm nor saying that we should do this tomorrow or the day
after. But we should be preparing the way for such a new ap-
proach to the problem of the regulation of media, for the new
Ccnsritution, like the old, does guarantee freedom. of the press
in unequivocal terms.
The reason we should be thinking about this problem, here
and now, is of course that we Cannot educate and train informa-
tion workers in a vacuum. Students have a right to be trained
not only to develop specific skills but also for the specific
political and social milieu in which they will live and work
and have their being. I think we should be training them for an
information system that will regulate and police itself, rather
than for the uninhibited, free-for-all, everything-goes journalism
of an earlier day. or for a system of total external controls.
I apologize for this disgression, but as a participant in the
labors of the United Nations to promote freedom of the press and
information that date back to 1947, I could not resist the
temptation to speak of these things on this occasion. For twenty
years in the United Nations I fought the Communist theory
and practice of information, while at the same time decrying
the shortcomings and abuses of freedom of the press as practiced
in a number of countries, including the United States and the
Phili ppines.
I therefore take the opportunity to suggest that while using
British equipment to train our information workers, we should
also try to inculcate in them the British theory and practice of
freedom of the press and of information, based on self-restraint
self-regulation and self-discipline. \Y/e cannot go back to the
old system, and the existing system is admittedly a temporary
expedient. \Y!e must therefore envisage and work for the eventual
establishment of a more rational system of information which will
place [he powerful modern media in the service of great human
ends, while giving them sufficient scope as provided in [he
Constitution.
Me. Ambassador, we receive this valuable gift from you at a
time of grave difficulty and distress in your own country. We
accept it therefore with a special feeling of gratitude. We are
confident that, as it has so often done in the course of its eventful
history, and most recently during \'V'orld War II, when it stood
virtually alone ~ o defend freedom in Europe, the great British
nation will overcome.

DUMB STUDENTS OR L'\'COMPETENT TEACHERS?


By DR. SALVADOR P. LOPEZ
President, University of the. Philtppmes
(Opel1i1lt Remarks at the Semint1r for FdWll., Counselors, VillZ011S Hall, ]5 ]twf{nry 1974)
Ever since I came to the University in 1969, J. have been
appalled by the high attrition rate of students in certain units and
departments of the University. I felt deeply concerned over a
tradition of excellence which appeared to rest, at least in part, on
the personal tragedies-unjustly caused-of far [00 many students
and their families. I suspected that the situation was attributable
to the accidents of a highly subjective and often irrational grading
system, and to the inadequate counseling services offered by the
University.
It is surely strange that while there is universal concern for
the conservation of our natural resources-our fishing grounds,
our forests and rate wild life such as the ramaraw, the monkey-
eating eagle, etc-e-we seem to be indifferent to the conservation
of our most important resource, which is our ambitious student
youth. This is why this seminar for faculty counselors is as timely
as it is necessary. More and more members of our faculty mUSI
be involved in meeting the counseling and guidance needs of .stu-
dents so that we can help as many of them as possible to avoid
the tragedy of undeserved or accidental failure.
Counseling as a basic service in student personnel work is
necessitated by the increasingly impersonal character of the educa-
tional process. Guidance bas been defined as the "individualiza-
tion of mass education," and the central concern of counseling and
guidance is the full and well-rounded development of the individ-
ual and the maximum utilization of his capabilities. By helping
faculty members to develop an enhanced quahty of humanness
in their relationship with students, we may prevent a great deal of
heartache and mental trauma on the part of students. For the
faculty as well as the University, this would also mean substantial
savings in time; effort and money.
"Cream of the Cream"
U.P. students are a very special group-special in the sense
that they are highly select, the "cream of the cream," so to
speak. More than 325,000 high school students gaduare every
year. Last November the Fund for Assistance to Private Education
(FAPE) administered the National College entrance Examina-
tion (NCEE) to 315,000 examinees. Of this number, some 12,000
or four (4) per cent of the roral have applied to take the U.P.
College Admissions Test (UPCAT). Of the 12,000 applicants,
only about 2,000 or 17 per cent will finally be admitted. Assuming
that our measuring instruments are reasonably accurate, we must
conside the srudenrs who will finally gain admittance to the
U.P. after this double screening as belonging to the very top
of the intellectual heap: 2,000 out of 325,000 high school grad-
uates, or .6%.
Among the select group of students, there 15 a ..'ery special
smaller group-the scholars. There exists a number of highly com-

pcritive scholarships offered by the national government, the


National Science Development Board, the Government Service
Insurance System, and a great many private donors. After qualify-
ing in the UPCAT, a student must undergo yet another com-
petitive examination to qualify for one of these scholarships.
Yet at the end of Doe semester, and every semester thereafter,
drop-outs or disqualifications from scholarship occur at a rare
far tOO high to be explained by the laws of probability.
Highest Mortality in V.P.
The highest mortality rare among government scholars is to
be found in the University of the Philippines. By contrast, there
is hardly any drop-out or disqualification among scholars enrolled
in private schools, even in the best among them. In a .recent
meeting of the General Committee of the NSDB for the Selection
and Guidance of Students, nineteen (9) V.P. science scholars
mostly in their 4th and 5th year lost their scholarships after
failing in one or, rarely, twa subjects. Twenty-four (24) suf-
fered suspension of their privileges because of grades of "Inc."
or "4". The State Scholarship Council also reported that U.P.
students account for the highest percentage of scholarship dis-
qualification. In the different colleges of the University, scholastic
delinquencies range from 20 to as high as 40 per cent.
\lV'hy this tremendous waste of human resources? \Y./ e cannot
wash our hands and say that only the students are to blame
and that teachers have no responsibility for this tragic situation.
For, when mote than half the students in a class fail, it does
not necessarily mean that the students are dumb; it could be
that the teacher is incompetent.
A Tragic Example
For some of these scholars, the sudden discontinuance of a
scholarship may mean the ruin of his whole future. We have
on record the case of a science scholar who in his third year,
together with ocher scholars in a physics class, got a grade of "5"-
the first "5" in his academic record of very geed grades up to
that time. He came of a vcry poor family from Davao, so poor
that his high school teachers, in order to defray the COSt of his
transportation co Diliman before NS,DB funds could be re-
leased, pooled their meager contributions co give to this boy.
He depended entirely for three years on his NSDB stipend,
part at" which he had to send home to help his poor parents,
brothers and sisters. Can you imagine what the Joss of the schol-
arship meant to this scholar? You are right, he dropped Out of
school. For a while, he hung around the University, hoping and
praying for a a miracle to happen so that he might be reinstated.
His hope was inspired by a report that because many other
scholars had failed [he same course, the matter had been brought
to the attention of the head of the department who then tried
co intercede on behalf of the scholars. The members of the Gcn-
e;al Committee of NSDB thought that the failure of chis group
of scholars was particularly unfortunate; rbey felt chat the re-
sult would have been entirely different if rhe students had
been enrolled under another teacher. Bur "academic freedom"
won the day: a professor's grade is inviolate, and this particular
professor refused to reconsider his. grades.
Two years later, this former scholar had not finished college.
He could nor afford the cuicion fees charged by the private col-
leges he considered worth enrolling in after the V.P. He took
a pan-time teaching job inta .privare university, but because he
did not have a degree, his. pay could hardly sustain him.
This. case is ncr uncommon; you will find many others like
it in the records. of t-he. University..
Study of Grading System
It is out of a feeling of concern for students who might be
the unwitting victims of the highly subjective and often irra-
tional grading systems used by certain teachers that I have asked
a systematic study to be made of the problem with a view to
instituting effective remedies. The Division of Counseling and
Guidance is now conducting a study of the grade distributions
of faculty members in different departments and colleges of the
University. The research, which enjoys NSDB support, aims to
find ways of helping and saving our students and scholars by
fixing differential cue-off points for qualifying scholars. The data
gathered so far arc highly interesting.
For example, the percentage distribution of grades .in five
departments - humanities, chemistry, English, physics and math-
emarics - in the second semester of 1972-73 shows that the
mathematics department is the topnotcher in having given the
greatest number of 5's (24.67%), followed by chemistry (21.-
12%), and physics (12.9%).
The percentage ratios of pass-fail by department for academic
year 1972-73 arc as follows: mathematics, 47.35% to 52.65%i
chemistry, 51.26% to 48.74%; physics, 63.16% to 36.85%;
English, 79.34% to 20.66%, and humanities, 86% to 14%.
If this pattern of grade distribution is _repeated over several
semesters or years, we can expect that our of every 25 students
enrolled, 13 will either get a grade of "4", or "Y', or "In-
complete", or dropout from the course in mathematics, 12 in
chemistry, 9 in physics, 5 in English, and 4 in the humanities.
A comparison of individual instructors' grading sheets shows
the following ranges of failure: mathematics from 25% co 88%;
chemistry from 8% to 91%; physics, from 12% to 87%;
English, from 2% co 62%; humanities, from 7% to 45"%.
The extremely wide range of falling grades in the five depart.
menrs speaks for itself; nor can it be explained by the differences
one might normally expect to find between teachers or between
the courses they handle.
Let's get down to cases. Professor A, who teaches chemistry,
gave failing grades in four courses, respectively, as follows:
65.22%, 84.00%.. 84.61% and 88%. Professor B, also of
chemistry, did slightly better (or worse?): 70%, 80% and
81.40%. Professor C, of mathemetics, was not far behind:
68.29%, 77.27%, 88.23%. But the champion of them all is
probably Professor D, of mathematics, who flunked 71.79%,
77.14%, 84,2%, and 90.24%, respectively, of the students in
the [our courses he handled. In the last cited class of 41 stu-
dents he gave a grade of "2.75" to-two students, "3" to rwo,
"4" co rhree, and "5" to fifteen, while nineteen dropped the
course.
Highl,.- Disturbing Data
I find these preliminary data extremely drsrurbing. Highly
inrclligenr students are failing miserably. Why? One cannot say
that it is lack of capacity, for we choose che very best of those
who apply. Could it be due to what psychologists and guidance
counselors call ncn-inrellecnve factors? Are V.F. professors'
grading practices rational? Do they follow logical patterns? Are
they understandable or meaningful?
One test of a logical grading pattern, according to the ex-
perts is that students with more academic- porenrial earn higher
grades. on the average, than those with less potential. There are
indications however -hat here at V.P., this 1S not so. fora sreai
deal seems to decend on who the reacher is and - in which
department or college the student is enrolled.' According co test.
data, the. br.ightesr lJ.P. students . are found in the College pf'
32 V.P. GAZETIE VOL. V, NO.2
Engineering, yet this college has a very high, perhaps the high-
est percentage of attrition in the entire University. .
A highly able student may fail in one class under one teacher,
whereas a less able student may earn a passing if not a high
mark under a different reacher for the same course. By its
very nature, the process of evaluation is highly individualized,
and may differ radically from professor to professor. At the
same time, the broad umbrella of "academic Ireedom'' permits
the professor to do practically whatever he pleases; he for-
mulates his own objectives, chooses his own materials and merh-
ods, and makes his own evaluations without Interference fro.n
anyone.
Change in Attitudes
Our varying systems of evaluation obviously Deed to be studied
closely and I am glad that one of the topics to be discussed in this
seminar is, "Grades and their Meaning". I here that this wlil
lead to a more rational and objective procedure {or the evalua-
tion of student performance so that grades may be regarded as
reflecting not only student achievement but teacher effectiveness
as well. \'le must correct the attitude of certain professors who
consider high grades as something to be stringently rationed
so as to maintain their professorial reputation or the respect-
ability of their courses, or who take the view that in any group
taking their courses a definite percentage - 50 or 75 or even
90 per cent - are predestined to fail.
The key to the problem, I believe, lies in a change in facul-
ty attitudes towards the teaching-learning activity and the facul-
-ry-student relationship. I am told that in other universities like
the Ateneo de Manila or De la Salle, scholars are identified at
the beginning of the year and given every help to enable them
to succeed in their studies and maintain their scholarships. Here
at the U.P., however, it seems that a kind of impersonal wall
separates most professors from their students so that scholars
often do not want their instructors to know that they are schol-
ars; they claim that the instructors do not care, or expect too
much from them, or even resent their being scholars!
Wasting Student M1Itel'ia]
For such a situation I cannot accept the justification often
given that we must maintain high academic standards regardless
of a high drop-out rate' or the personal tragedies of the drop-
outs and failure. But standards cannot be maintained by irra-
tional grading practices; on the contrary, such oractices tend in
the long run to reduce standards by wasting valuable student
material. Standards can only be maintained at raised by a com-
bination of good students, adequate facilities and competent
teachers - competence being itself a blend of knowledge of
subject matter, ability to communicate, and rapport with stu-
dents.
Given the far-above-average intelligence of U.P. students, we
do have a wealth of human potential in our classrooms, It -s
our duty to cherish and nurture this potential and not thought-
lessly throw it away as if it were a common and worthless com-
modity.
On the other hand, I don't believe in coddling students. Stu-
dents should be encouraged, induced and driven to extend them-
selves; indeed, the best reachers are those who constantly chal-
lenge their students to outdo themselves. A student who lacks
the requisite ability or who is habitually lazy or indifferent soon
eliminates himself. but what is our defense against a mean and
sadistic professor?
There arc two kinds of teachers we should not tolerate in
the University: the teacher who habitually flunks more than
50 per cent of the students in a class, and the teacher who ha-
bitually passes all or nearly all students in a class, usually with
u grade of "1 ", Such teachers should at the least be required
to attend seminars like this one, and if this fails, to seek the
services of a psychiatrist. For, they obviously suffer from some
secret inadequacy, a flaw in the ego, which they attempt to hide
behind a stern mask of cruelty or the smiling face of popularity.
Stern as well as G,entle
A U.P. professor, once permanently appointed, enjoys tenure
and cannot be removed just because he is a "terror professor"
or even because he is an incompetent teacher. Experience shows
that incompetence is virtually impossible to prove in formal
investigation. \'(le are therefore stuck with him. But we ca.r
immobilize or freeze such a teacher by the simple device of
assigning other duties to him, except teaching. This would at
least prevent him from "destroying students". I quote the
phrase from a letter recently sent to me by a distraught student
who had taken a course under one of the anOD}mOUS professors
previously referred to, and received his first "5" ever in four years
as a UP. scholar.
A teacher misjudges his mission if he regards his task as
that of prosecutor, judge, warden and executioner all rolled into
one; rather, he should consider himself as friend, guide, coun-
selor, and facilitator-in short, a teacher in the truest sense of
the word. His best model remains Jesus of Nazereth: capable
of being stern or gentle as the individual student or the par-
ticular situation may require; that is, stern with the slovenly,
the negligent and the slothful, but gentle with those who need
guidance, sympathy and understanding.

REMARKS BY THE AUSTRALIAN PRIME MINISTER, MR. E. G. WffiTLAM, ON ACCEPTING
THE HONORARY DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF LAWS FROM THE UNIVERSITY OF
THE PffiLIPPINES, MONDAY, II FEBRUARY 1974

Mr. President,
I am deeply moved by the honour you have done me by the
conferring of this degree and the generous terms in which your
citation was framed. I regard it, and indeed 1 accept it, not
so much as an honour for me but as an honour for all Australians,
a gracious and imaginative symbol of the friendship between my
country and yours. I may say that this is the first time I have
received an honorary degree. It is a matter of special satisfaction
that it has been bestowed by an Institution as renowned as yours,
a seat of learning with deep roots in the social and cultural
fabric of your nation, a university which for nearly 70 yeals
has contributed to the growth and progress of the Philippines
and produced so many of its gifted leaders and administrators,
The University of the Philippines has long been recognized
as a training ground for the most distinguished and eminent
citizens of your country. The links between the university
and Government of the Philippines are strong and enduring. I
recall that your distinguished Foreign Minister was a former
President of this university. You yourself, Dr. Lopez, as a writer,
as a diplomat, as a public servant of high renown, have added
lustre to this institution. I pay tribute also to your most
eminent graduate, the President of the Republic, a Bachelor of
Laws of the University of the Philippines. I count it an honour
that the Dame of an Australian Prime Minister should be in-
cluded in such company.
Our rwo countries are fortunate in the quality and number of
their universities and in the way they have helped shape and
safeguard the values of our society. In both countries our govern.
menrs give high priority to maintaining standards of university
education and preserving them as essential bastions of civilized
values. University educarion is an ancient tradition in the
Philippines, first country in the whole of the \'{estern Pacific
to have established a university. In Australia we have been ict-
runate that so many Filipino students have studied at universities
in my country. \'(fc shall continue to welcome them and do all
we can to make their stay in Australia a source of satisfaction
and reward for both our countries.
Dr. Lopez, again thank you and the members of }'OUt Coun-
cil for the honour you have done me. I look upon it as are
minder that our two countries, despite differences in history, in
social structure and in the problems confronting us in an un-
certain and dangerous world, share a profound respect for the
enduring values embodied in all universities and for the prin-
ciples of independent inquiry and academic freedom of which
they are the ultimate guardians. J thank you for the warmth of
your citation and its flattering references to my Government's
policy. I assure you that it will remain an inspiration to me
and my Government and a reminder of the common aims and
shared ideals of the peoples of Australia and the Philippines.
SPEECH BY THE AUSTRALIAN PRIME MINISTER, l\fR. E. G. WffiTLAM
AT THE OF THE PffiLIPPINES, MONDAY,
II FEBRUARY 1974
I should at the outset express my appreciation for the
arrangements which permit me to make this add ress to you here-
and through you, I hope to a wider audience throughout the
Philippines. There are many reasons why I value this opporru-
niry. Among others, it gives me the chance (C' repay to your
national university the compliment paid to the Australian Na-
tional University last September by me otd friend, Australian's
old and trusted friend General Romulo, the foreign Secretary.
With his customary forthrightness and verve, he chose that
forum to explain to Australians last September the nature and
purpose of the New Society. I hope that my giving an address
here underlines the respect in which the people of both the.
Philippines and Australia hoJd universities as institutes of higher
learning. I have been pleased to learn that arrangements are
being made for an Australian professor of economics to spend
a full year at the University of the Philippines on seconclment.
I hope this exchange may prove only the beginning of a Ye-
gular rwo.way exchange of staff between our universities. Ana
of course many hundreds of Filipino students have been
to Australian universities under the Colombo Plan. But it es-
pecially pleases me to demonstrate b)' my presence among you
today my conviction about the key role the youth of this
nation and this region have to play in nation- building. It is
an aid cliche that the youth of today are the leaders of tomorrow.
But such is the pace of events today, such is the speed of change,
that the youth of today arc increasingly called upon to provide
leadership, not tomorrow but today, And nowhere is this more
true than in our own region. M}' own Government came to
power a little more than a year ago largely because a ma-
jority of the youth of Australia, for the first nme in a genera-
tion, voted for change-s-for change on issues on which they
themselves had shown leadership. My Government can only
survive as long as we hold the confidence of men and women
under 25.
Both at home and on my travels I have been made constantly
aware of the deep concern which students feel for the processes
of democracy. As President Marcos said last night, the Philip-
pines is in a process of change and transition. 'From this pro-
cess, I look" forward to the recreation of Filipino democracy
34 UP. GAZETTE VOL. V, No.2
embodying the aspirations of the people and leadership of the
Philippines.
It is with all these thoughts in mind that I express my
pleasure in being able to give this address here-the last of
many in the six countries in the region I have visited in the
past two weeks.
The first thing I have to say is simply this: That the
labor Government, which was elected to office in Australia in
December 1972, has a new and distinctive approach to a great
many of the matters of current international importance in
which your country and mine have a common interest. I have
met here, and in all the other countries I have visited, a genuine
understanding of our approach and the reasons behind it.
As far as the Philippines are concerned, General Romulo told
me as long ago as last September in Canberra that he was very
well aware of the change and welcomed it.
But it is not only a matter of undemanding changes which
are made by Governments, by my Government or any GOY-
ernment. In trying better to understand each other as nations,
we should acknowledge that people change as well as Gov-
ernments.
It is unfortunate, but true, that countries often manage
to develop distorted views about each other, sometimes be-
cause people think that policies of 25 years ago still prevail.
There is one serious distortion that still affects the relationship
between our two counrrics-c-and that is a widespread belief
in this country that Australia is a white racist society whose
policies approximate to the apartheid policy practiced in South
Africa, Officers of the Australian Embassy here, from the
Ambassador down, tell me that whenever they give a public
talk about Australia, the first questions asked by the audience
invariably relate to racial issues-and in particular to the laws on
the admission of non-European immigrants to Australia.
Now the fact is that the attitudes of 25 years ago have
changed profoundly, radically. I know that the case of Sergeant
Gamboa. the rejection of whose application to migrate to
Australia in 1947 caused great bitterness, well justified bitter-
ness and contempt here, is still remembered, It's perhaps not so
often recalled that Me. Gamboa has lived in Australia for
o....er 2U years and is, like myself, an Australian grandfather.
More importantly it should be remembered that the Gamboa
case also caused a grcar outcry in Australia, by Australians
who were able to sec and were appalled to see the inhuman
implications of a policy which had been for so long the
orthodoxy of all our major political parties. It is possibly
because my own party, the Australian Labor Party, was in
power at the time when the Gamboa and other similar incidents
occurred, and because my Party had been traditionally, for rea-
sons deep in Australia's social and economic history, the Front-
line defender of the contemptible White Australia Policy 50-
called that the fighr for change was longest within the Labor
Party and yet in the end the victory was most complete within
the Labor Party. But the Australian people as a whole began to
re-think their attitude, and governments and all parties respond-
ed. For instance, the Government of Mr. Harold Holt, who
visited Manila in the year of his tragic death, markedly
liberaliscd Australia's immigration policy in 1966.
I said earlier that O1y Government depended on the support
of Australian youth, The two issues which have attracted the
attention of Australian youth longer than any others are
Australia's immigration policies and the condition of the Aus-
tralian aborigines, And these both came down to a single issue-
racism. The most recent political issue involving mass demonstra-
tions by Australian young men and women was a race issue-the
presence in Australia of racially-selected sporting teams from
South Africa. Among young Australians today there is one
unifying spirit-uncompromising opposition to racism in all its
forms, So there is no doubting the direction in which the deci-
sive political influence of young Australians-c-wbo are of course,
a large and increasing majority of the Australian electorate-
has forced Australian policy. There will be no turning back-
irrespective of which party is elected by the free choice of the
Australian people to provide their Government.
One of my own Government's first acts upon Lcing elected
to office was to change Australia's vote from No to Yes on two
United Nations resolutions on Southern Rhodesia under con-
sideration at that time, At the same time, we announced our
intention to ratify the International Convention Against Racial
Discrimination. \Vle refused to allow racially selected sporting
teams to visit or pass through Australia.
The timing and nature of these actions were deliberate. They
were intended to signal to the world the priority which the
newly-elected Government would give from then on to questions
of race in formulating its policies and were designed to initiate
the visible process of ridding Australia of any racist image. By
giving the aborigines for the first time the same sratus before
the law and the same political, economic and social opportunities
as other Australians, by revising immigration laws and procedures
to eliminate the racial criterion, and by demonstrating our
sympathy with an understanding of the aspirations of the black
Africans, we are trying to make-and we believe we are making-
a positive contribution to the lessening of interracial suspicion,
fear and hostility throughout the world.
On immigration, we have removed the last remaining pieces
of legislation which could be described as discnminatory on racial
grounds, The Australian Minister for Immigration, Mr. Al Grassby,
visited the Philippines last year to explain the changes in our
policies, and I cannot improve on his reply to a question during
his final press conference. When asked about the so-called
"White Australia Policy," he replied: "It is dead-give me a
shovel and I will bury it." And I here acknowledge the response
of the Government of the Philippines to OUI policy, Until last
year Australians were not permitted to settle in the Philippines.
Now that the Philippine Government has removed this discrimi-
nation Australians may apply for residence in the Philippines
on the Same basis as nations of other countries.
I have dealt with this matter first and at some length not
JUSt because I know the interest it arouses in the Philippines.
It is also a good example of the real nature of the process of
change in Australian policy-making. Change there has been, but
not unpredictable, abrupt, or erratic; because, on so many issues,
the process of change had begun under previous governments in
response (0 the wishes of the Australian people and the realities
of our times. And this means that the important changes which
the Australian Government has made are quite irreversrble-c-irre-
spective of the fate of my own adminisrranon. For the great
changes rest upon things which cannot be changed again, cannot
be pur into reverse,
The same is true of the changed attitudes and policies on matters
concerning our relations with our friends, neighbors and allies.
The changes arc based on realities, they are based on a con-
tinuing and developing recognition of genuine national interests
and they arc based on the wishes of the people. I can best illus-
trate this by reference to our relations with the Philippines and
with the United States and the relations of both cur countries
with the other countries of our region,
Less than thirty years ago, the Philippines and Australia were,
with New Zealand, the three original signatories of the United

FErrRUARY 28, .1974 D.P. GAZETTE 35

Nations Charter from this region. Since then our foreign policies
have followed a 'very similar development. In the immediate
postwar period we both ler ourselves depend far too much on
outside powers, especially the United States. We Joined defensive
alliances against what we accepted, quire uncritically, as the
communist monolithic menace which acording to the prevailing
doctrine divided the world between the forces of good and evil.
We did nor think very much of OUf own particular national
interests or work out independent viewpoints of our own. Our
anitudes of mind were too heavily influenced by 1'0 exaggerated
assumption of our own weakness.
Recently, we have both begun to make what rs surely a more
mature approach and a more realistic approach. We have begun
to think more for ourselves and more highly of ourselves. In
particular, we have come to look at our own region differently;
we see it more through our own eyes. We first consider how
the world looks from Manila or from Canberra not from
Washington or London. We question things we have taken for
granted for a generation and we seek our solutions to our own
problems. In the Philippines, President Marcos has referred to
this new spirit as "national self-reliance." It has been called in
Australia the "new nationalism", though it is not a term I use.
Essentially, what we are both saying is that we must stand more
on our own feet. We do in fact pay the President of the United
States the compliment of accepting that the Guam Doctrine
means what it says-s-and we are both adjusting our policies
accordingly.
Yet neither of us see these changes being made at the expense
of old friends, particularly the United States. Although we are
both less dependent on the United States than we are, we both
attach great importance to our alliance with the United States.
We both wish to maintain dose and friendly relations with that
country,
I do not pretend that the Philippines and Australia will always
view international development in the same war, but I believe
that our approach to the world events is closer in spirit and
objective now than it has ever been.
Similarity of view in international affairs can be seen not
only in our approach to the world at large, but also to the
particular problems of the South-East Asian region. Since coming
to office fourteen months ago I have raise the general question
of the need for a wider regional association than any now existing.
President Marcos perceives the same need - the same gap in
our existing opportunities for consultation and co-operation. He
has spoken of the need for what he describes as an Asian Forum.
In our region there is nothing comparable to the Organisation
for African Unity or the Organisation of American States. The
Australian long-term hope is for regional arrangements which,
although they would be less institutionalised and more informal
than the OAU or the GAS, would give all the countries of the
area, irrespective of their ideological differences, a forum in
which to talk informally together and promote greater under-
standing and co-operation. The parallel I most frequently use
of the sort of arrangement I envision is the Commonwealth of
Nations - formerly catted the British Comrnonwealtl-.
Certainly neither President Marcos nor I pretend that there
arc no major obstacles to be overcome in brin",:ing this kind of
idea co fruition.
There arc two outstanding ones: the continuing conflict in
Indo-China and the lack of formal relations between China and
many of the countries in our region. \X'e fuliy recognise that,
for a variety of historical. cultural. political and economic reasons,
many countries with substantial Chinese communnies ate finding
it more difficult than we have done to normalise their relations
. with China. We recognise that the Philippines has a particular
problem in this regard. But we also note that you have begun
to move in the direction of recognition of the People's Republic
of China, and that this objective has been prodarmed publicly by
President Marcos. Australia was able to move very quickly towards
normalisation but our problems were obviously much simpler.
I should also like to say something about :\SEAN. It has
sometimes been suggested that the Australian in-
terest in a new regional organisation could be met at least
partially, by joining the existing ASEAN, or that in putting
forward our thoughts about new arrangements we are. trying
either to undermine or override ASEAN. \XTe arc trying to do
nothing of the sort. On the contrary, we believe that
is a model, a natural regionaljgrouping. All thar we seek is to
develop ways of working with ASEAN as a reg:unai entity. Only
last month an Australian official delegation consulted with the
Secretaries-General of all ASEAN members at {heir meeting in
Bangkok. As a result, there are to be studies at the official level
on areas of Australian co-operation and support which could be
beneficial to ASEAN, and the Secretaries-General of ASEAN
have been invited to confer in Australia in the near future.
We also wholeheartedly support the ASEAN proposals for
a zone of peace, freedom and neutrality in South-East Asia. We
favour co-operation on a regional, as weH as a national, basis in
facing common security problems. This kind of approach - seeking
indigenous solutions to security problems - accords with the
attitudes and aims underlying our own foreign policy.
It follows that -like the Philippines - we in Australia see
the old style approach to regional security probems as exempli.
fied in SEATO as being out of date in many important respects.
General Romulo was among the first to publicly voice strong
criticism of SEATO as it then existed in 1972 at the Council
Meeting in Canberra. There was of course the usual tut-tutting,
but not for the first time General Romulo has survived to see
yesterday's heresy become today's orthodoxy. i might even say
I have shared the same experience both at home and abroad.
It is a source of deep satisfaction to me that many of the criticisms
then made by General Romulo have now been acted upon, and
that the SF.ATO Secretariat has been reorganized and its predom-
inantly military orientation revised. SEATO couic no longer be
accepted as a military pact for the containment or China.
The policies of both our countries are now directed towards
encouraging the militarily and economically dominant powers
to cease disruptive intervention in the region, so as to let social
and political conflicts work themselves out in truly national
solutions. \Y/e in Australia believe that the dramatically improved
relations between the major powers. with the notable exception
of relations between China and the Sevier Union, represent a
fundamental change which will allow a much greater flexibility
in the conduct of foreign affairs. We believe that. in an armos-
phere of detente between great powers, countries such as Australia
and the Philippines will have new opportunities not only to work
our their own independent place in the world, but also to develop
their relations with each other.
And. of course, relations between our two countries arc widen
i ng and will continue to deepen, irrespective d the success or
otherwise of the detente. \Yfe arc getting to know each other
better. Australians in particular by force of (heir history and
their geographical isolation in old days of slow and costly travel,
unfamiliar, even uneasy. with their own neighbourhood - arc
getting to know better the region in which they live. The more
they get to know it, the more they feel at horne in this region;
their region; and this region is their home, for all time.

V.P. GAZETTE VOL. V, NO.2
I might here appropriately inform you that _President Marcoe
and I have been discussing the possibility of concluding a
Cultural Agreement between our two countries. We are agreed
in principle it would be a good thing and hope to be able to
reach agreement on an actual (ext in the very near future. The
process of nations getting to know each other is advanced-
but only partially advanced - when political leaders such as
. myself make official visits.
Private travel helps considerably ---'" and I am very interested
to bear that the number of Australian tourists" corning here has
increased substantially - on the way to doubling - in the last
twelve months or so. Trade and commerce are other areas where
important contacts arc made, "and here again are encouraging
developments between our two countries. But I fed strongly that
if, at the governmental level, we can set up a framework for
developing the kind of contacts that would bf" promoted by a
Cultural Agrcement, we shall be going a great deal' further to-
wards promoting the kind of closer understanding that should
exist between neighbouring countries such as ours.
There is another agreement being negotiated between o:ur two
. countries and to which I wish to refer now. That is an agreement
whereby Australia will enrer into a joint aid project with the
Philippine Government for the construction 'of roads and related
irrigation and agricultural development work in the province of
Zamboanga del Sur. Under the terms of the agreement, a team
of Australian engineers will set up its headquarters ncar the
city of Pagadian and over a five year perind form the nucleus
of a major road construction and rehabilitancn project. The
: cost to the Australian Government will be approximately 20
million pesos a year ($A2 million) for each of the five years.
This is a large scale project by any reckoning and, for that
reason, of considerable importance; but it has an even greater
significance than may first appear, because it will be the first aid
project on such a scale to be concluded between Australia and
the Philippines. \X'e see it as a response to a demonstrated na-
tiona! need in this country, and we hope it will yield substantial
benefits to people in one of the lesser-developed areas of Mindanao.
\'<'e also see it as reflecting our own current approach to fostering
the relationship between our two countries.
My visits to the Philippines always seem to have had some
special personal significance for me. I first caine here at the
end of the \\lar as a member of the Royal Australien Air Force.
Several visits and many years later, it was here in Manila that
J first heard the stunning news about the Tet offensive in Viet-
nam - which, whatever its military significance, had enormous
consequences, nor least in Australia. I came bcre again on my
way back home after my first visit to Peking in July 1971 while
the region was. still reverberating with - one might almost
say recovering from - the news of President Nixon's decision
to go himself to Peking. Visiting for the first time as my coun-
. try's Prime Minister, this must of course De to me the most
significant in the long and continuing story of Iriendship L.
more than friendship, partnership - between the Filipino and
Australian peoples.

EXECUTIVE ORDER
Executive Order No. I I: A University Clearing House for
Theses, Dissertations, and Graduate Sllccialand
Term Papers in the Main Library
In order ro promote and coordinate research and to prevent
cases of plagiarism as ' ....ell as failure to acknowledge sources
of ideas, findings. erc., in the University, it is herebv directed
that:
1. All academic units provide the Main Library and the
College concerned with a copy of the proposed outline
[or the thesis or dissertation immediately after approval
so that adequate bibliographical service can be rendered
to researchers and graduate students. This would also pre-
vent duplication of research except under exceptional con.
dirions where such duplication is considered. valid and
justifiable.
2. Copies of the titles of special papers and major term
papers containing the name of the student, college, etc.
should be submitted to the Main Library and College Ii-
brary concerned through a form to be developed by the
Main Library, which faculty members may distribute to
their students. This would facilitate indexing and, eventual-
ly, the development of a computerized system of storing
and retrieving data.
3. In this connection there is already a continuing union
list of all theses approved in all Philippine universities
It is proposed that each academic unit, offering graduate
courses be provided with at least one copy of this union
list.
4. Heads of units direct that there be inter-unit and intra-
unit communication on research topics not only to prevent
unnecessary duplication, but more importantly, to coordi-
nate research efforts within the University.
These arc preliminary measures toward the establishment of a
national dearing-house for research undertaken by local or for-
eign scholars either through the NSDB or the University of the
Philippines System. or both in collaboration. For this, a dam
bank would be essential. Similar agencies are already operating
in Thailand and Indonesia. Researchers are required to inform
such agencies of the purpose and nature of their studies and. in
the case of foreign researchers, to leave copies of their raw data
and submit a copy of the final report before leaving the coun-
try. Such a system would result in more integrated and coordi-
nared research on the Philippines and would make related lite-
rature more readily accessible to scholars.

Pa)'ment 01 Lidng AlloJcaflce 01
Pursuant to Presidential Decree No, 390, dated February 17.
1974, all employees of the National Government, whether per.
manenr, temporary, emergency or casual, whose salaries or wages
arc payable out of the general fund, special fund, fiduciary fund
or other funds, and whose actual salaries or wages are less than

service rendered during the month; and
2. In case the time record reflects certain leaves, the head
of rhe Unit should indicate whether it is with' payor
without pay as leave with pay is considered actual service.

Teaching Duties of Faculty
This Office has received information to the effect that some
faculty members delegate their reaching duties to graduate office
assistants on days when they are unable to report for work. This
practice, if allowed to continue, is bound to affect adversely the
quality of teaching which the University offers to students, It
must therefore be stopped immediately,
Office assistants are hired to do office work, nor reaching.
We would re-emphasize, in this connection, the primacy of
the teaching function among the responsibilities of professors.
This is a function that cannot be rreared lightly.
Deans of all units and chairmen of departments ",re therefore
enjoined to adopt necessary measures to ensure that the teaching
responsibilities of your unit or department are met efficiently
and responsibly.

CREATION AND CHANGE IN NAME OF DEPARTMENTS
IN COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE
The Board approved the creation of one department and the
change in name of another in the College of Agriculture. Univer-
sity of the Philippines at los Banos, as follows:
(1) Creation of the Department of Horticulture from the pre-
sent Division of Horticulture, Department of Agronomy,
to be composed of four (4) divisions, namely: fruit crops,
plantation crops, ornamental crops and vegetable crops,
which altogether will work on 12 fields of specialization.
Horticulture in the Philippines has emerged as a viable
field of agriculture. At present, the coconut, abaca, banana,
mango and pineapple industries contribute very subsran-
riallv ro rhe domestic income and foreign earnings, while
rhe vegetable crops are starting to fill the protein and
other nutritional needs of the people. The flower and
ornamental crops are likewise beginning to make aesthetic
impact on the Philippine landscape.
The proposed Department of Horticulture has a strong
academic staff composed of 13 Ph.D., 12 M.S. and 6 B.S.
degree holders. The department's annual research budget
amounts to cbour P70D,OOO.QO. It offers 9 undergraduate
courses, 5 undergraduate-graduate and 9 graduate courses.
(2) Change in the name of the present Department of Agricul-
tural Communications to Department of Development
Cooim nnicntion-
The above change would make the dcpanmcnc's name
coneruenr with its present curricular offering in M.S. in
development communication and with the change in title
of its undergraduate program to B.S. in development
communication. This will likewise Ip.gitimize the dircc-
tion that the department bas been taking in the past
vears. Its present teaching, rcesarch and extension activ-
ities cover not only communication situations in agricul-
mrc but nlso ill family planning, ccmmuuirv health

and nutrition, forest conservation, agrarian reform, coopera-
rives and other developmental topics that are usually
thought of as agricultural bur which are of utmost concern
to rural families. Moreover, the change in O:1J1le is in line
with the expanded deve'opmcutal oneuration of the UPLB,
and thus will allow the department tc support more fully
the work of the ether units on the DPLB campus.

VANGUARDS: WITH YOliR IRON WILL, THE CONSTANT HEART
VOL. V, No.3
By Il'.-tELDA MARCOS
(Speech delivered. 011 tbo 0(((/$i011 0/ the 521ld alumni homecoming of the V.P.' Vangllard, lnc., 23 March 1974, at the Uni-
rersitv of the P/;iNppineJ a/ Los Baiios)
It is a unique .privilege for -a woman to be addressing an ex-
elusively male society, particularly one that involves what is
most manly in man: his martial skill. The classic. instance of
feminine involvement in the martial world of-men was that
of Lysistrara, who used the only weapon available to women
in order to end a vicious war: love. It is an involvement worth
repeating again and again.
1 would like to think that my coming here today is a modest
extension of d1C Lysisrraran tradition. For you of the V.P. Van-
guard have decided to establish a scholarship foundation. This
has been long overdue.
This seems to be my role today, For as your First Lady my
role as mother has been extended co the wider family that is
our people. And whatever gifr is within my reach I am ready
to offer this to those who need them. And today I have gone to
the cxtc9-t of speaking before this very tight. and all male Frater-
nity the V.P. Vanguard.
The tradition that all of you represent needs a more con-
crctely social expression.
... And what is this tradition of the V.P. Vanguard that I
speak of? The answer lies in the breed of men who exemplify
the U.P: Vanguard at its best: soldier-statesmen, soldier-scholars.
soldicr-intellectuals. soldier-citizens.
Indeed, I note here the presence of cue whom I know a
Iinle more than all of you: Ferdinand E. Marcos. But soldier-
statesmen, 5.cholars, and intellectuals arc nothing more than spe-
cific' instances of what the V.P. Vanguard is-a society of of-
ficers and gentlemen.
To be an officer and gentleman in its original sense is to be
a -civlli'zed man who knows that civilization sometimes must be
defended- by arms. It is to be educated and strong, civilized
and courageous, for man, despite his martial skills, is meant
ro flourish in peace and harmony.
But whatever his endeavors, whether facing the common enemy
or building for peace, man needs an .inner discipline. It has been
truly said that a nation disciplined, achieves; a nation undis-
ciplined, degenerates.
That the V.P. Vanguard commits. itself to the ideal of the
officer and genrleman .belies. the claim .that the state university
harbors discord. To iniriate,to. be creative; to .rhrust the new
upon the ways of the old is not necessarily to SOW" discord; as
\Ve know, this_is, in, fact, the revolution of the New Society.
To rebel, indeed, against the old ways is to. restore harmony
when before- there was discord.
Bur you are much more sophisticated about these matters
than I am. \'llle women arc often moved hi' emotion rather than
philosophy,' by compassion .rather. than doctrine. We knowiins-
rincrively that the final 'aim of. human .endedvcrs is . life, more
life. W/e complement man'sriron will 'with rbe constani heart.
Each has its own discipline. One endowing strength and the
other promoting harmony. This -is not a dichotomy rhar is com-
p'cre. For neither the constant heart nor the iro'n will can
function alone.' Man is a duality that is governed by unity.
Thus the self-discipline that we speak of today, and which
is the theme of your homecoming signifies co me rhe' recon-
ciliation of warring passions, which on another level, President
Marcos describes as the "reconciliation 'of private ends with the
public good." There is, indeed, no passion for freedom without
the passion for order, no commitment to self-realizatil:n without
the strength of discipline.
Let me then commend the qualities of valor and dedication
exemplified by the V.P. Vanguard, which now, by its social ccn-
cern, embraces compassion as part of its commitment to the
nation and our people.
And as your commander would say, "carryon!"

Armed Forces of the Pbilippines
(Speecb delivered as GrIC!! of Honor (/11d Speaker dtiring tbo loint Grd.'Ifl!;o/l Review of the ROTC Units of the University 0/ the
Pbilippines System, 24 Marcb 1974 at the Upper Parade Gronnd. Universit y 0/ the PhilippiNeJ at LOJ Baiios]
This joinr graduation review for all the Reserve Officers'
Training Corps Units of the University of the Philippines System
is not just another first-c-borh in the history of the University
and in that of the Vanguards. It is immediately significant in
at least two respects. Firstly, it signifies the will-s-besides the
willingness-of our traditional sources of power to share their
prerogatives with those farther from the center or lower on the
totem pole-something which does not normally happen in any
society. Secondly, it signifies unity-unity among the Vanguards
and with the entire officer corps of the Armed Forces in the
service of our country.
The choice of the locale for this novel occasion is itself signifi-
cam. I say this nor as an alumnus of los Banos, bur as an
ordinary citizen of the Philippines, privileged enougr. to be an
active participant in many critical events in the recent and
contemporary histories of our nation. To me Los Banos has
become a rallying poinr in those trying moments. We assemble
here for our traditional loyalty Day every October to com-
memornte that day when our fathers, as one man, readily and
willingly pledged their lives to the cause of free peoples the
world over. During those dark moments when we were under
the oppressive rule of foreign invaders, los Baiios served as a

-.
bastion of fortitude and of hope. Back in peace, but with hunger
stalking the land, it was again Los Banos that won the field.
And now with the problems of the environment besetting our
society, people arc again looking rewards los Banos, and I am
contidcnr that we will not fail them.
I therefore congratulate the planners of the 1974 Vanguard
Convention especially our National Commander General Fabian
Ver , for the non..Jtr of their decision to integrate the ROTC
commenccmenr exercises with our alumni homecoming. I wish
to congratulate (hem too for their choice of a most appropriate
theme, namely, "Self Discipline for Progress." The task is now
mine (0 address rhc members of this rear's graduating classes,
hopefully as a fitting contribution (0 the exercise-a task which
gives me great pleasure indeed.
President Marcos declared Marrial law that fateful Ja): in
September 1972 as an extreme measure to lift the country from
the anarchic situation then obtaining. Floods and Other natural
calamities had devastated the land, leaving masses of our people
hungry, bare, and homeless. The dissidents, with foreign, as well
as local support, had gone all-our ro topple our duly constituted
government. Our schools had become hotbeds of subversive
acriviries. And as 50 on as the people saw the institution of a
New Society in place of the Old, they readily gave of their
wholehearted cooperation.
What we have seen dearly demonstrated since then is the
natural Ion' uf people for order-not ro mention their natural
craving for freedom and dignity. \\lith faith in ourselves as rhe
New Filipinos, and with faith in the national leadership, there
could han' been no reason for us to fail to realize these natural
tendencies. If ever there was a need ro institute Martial law,
ir was only to reinforce these inherent human traits-to provide
rhc environment for the pursuit of our individual and collective
goals. Discipline has never been meant to be imposed from the
outside: there is no other brand of discipline than self-discipline.
As for progress, we have seen how it has come about so easily
once the proper conditions had been set. I do nor see any need
to recount our gains in this direction; the proof of the pudding,
after all, is in the eating,
Yet it is our very successes in the matter of securing self-
discipline and in the matter of making material progress that
should give us real apprehensions, we come to think
of it, the most terrifying problems that face mankind now have
been spawned by previous successes. Our dwindling stocks of
critical resources have been due to previous successes in our
extraction technolog)'. \X'e face a population crisis because of our
successes in medicine, The air we brearhe in the cities is now
polluted because of the success of the automobile industry.
Science has given us the solution to practically all our problems,
and yet we cannot seem to solve them; we even contincc to create
marc. Of COurse, I am speaking here of the universal experience,
but it would be a very risky proposition for us to consider
ourselves smarter than the rest of mankind,
\\le could indeed be smarter-s-and I am here asking you to
be-br recognizing the basic problem and learning from all our
stock of human experience, In all my endeavors, I have made it
both my personal and official policy to focus on the man. \'('hile
it is true that we have to build on our strengths in science end
technology, we should even pay more attention to the human
condition. This focus on man could then be extended to the
society and to Nature. In other words, our preoccupation for
science and technology should be marched by our undemanding
of (he nature of man and his relation with his environment, both
human anJ natural. If we recall now the success-generated prob-
lcms 1 have cited earlier, it is easy (0 see that those derived
problems could have easily been avoided had people taken a
broader view of man and his environment.
I have called this short address, "Beyond Discipline and
Progress," to direct our concerns to the expense which man and
his environment might have sustained in our drive towards ma-
terial progress through self-discipline. In instilling such discipline
for instance, could we be reducing our people into the status of
robots, passive specrarors, or victims? In trying to catch that
dollar inflow, {or instance. could we be depriving future gcn-
crarions their share of the parrimonv of the country, making of
ourselves a nation of waiters, or creating more misery among
our people by raising their level of expectations without the
necessary wherewithal? These questions have, of course, been
formulated in the extreme and are not meant co be answered.
They are to serve only as caveats-things to be guarded against
if our future is to be bright.
I do not think I have to apologize here for taking such a global
end futuristic outlook in my address. There can really be no
more appropriate forum for this kind of talk than before this
batch of youthful. multi-disciplined graduates of the State Uni-
versuy System and of the Reserve Officers Corps program.
The challenges and opportunities you face under the New Society,
know no bounds, especially with our expanded concept of the
Citizen Army. To be sure, no one (an be a real Vanguard,
i n every sense of the term, unless he is endowed with a certain
futurism, And certainly no one among us can have a bigger stake
in [he future than tht' youngest batch of Vanguards.
May I then extend my most sincere congratulations to rhe
members of the graduating ROTC classes and to the staff who saw
them through.

ADMINiSTRATIVE ORDER
Administrath'c Order 174: Establishment of a
Committee for the Formulation of a Five-Year (1975.
1979) Development Program for the University of the
Phtlippines System
The following are constituted into a Committee, with
Dr. Nathaniel B. Tablante as Chairman and Prof. Juan
B. Uy as Vice-Chairman, to formulate a Five-Year (1975-
'19) Development Program for the University of the Phil-
ippines System:
Dean Armando J. Malay, Office of Student Affairs;
Dr. Priscila S. Manalang, Office of the Vice-President
for Academic Affairs; Dr. Joventino D. Soriano, Col-
lege of Arts and Sciences; Dr. Juan R. Francisco, Grad-
uate School; Dr. Arturo A. Gomez, U.P. at Los Banos;
Dr. Felisa D. Fernandez, Office of the President; Prof.
Mar-ina G. Dayrit, University Library; Atty. Galicano J.
Mateo, Budget Office; Director Romeo C. Tomacruz, Of-
fice of Business Enterprises; and Mr. Antonio P. Cruz,
Physical Plant Office.
The Committee is being created in response to the in-
struction of His Excellency, the President of the Phil-
ippines for the submission of such a program as soon as
possible.
Although the program will concentrate on the develop-
ment of the University of the Philippines in Dillman, it
will include the development as well of the regional units
of the University and the continuing development of U.P.
at Los Bafios, which has just completed its own Five-Year
Development Program (1967-1972). Tbis program will
comprehend the construction of an adequate and modern
physical plant, the acquisition of instructional equipment
and facilities, faculty and staff development, the develop-
ment of academic, research and extension programs, stu-
dent services, business enterprises, and fiscal and budget-
ary rnatters,
Since the President's instruction to me implies that the
necessary funding would be made available, it is essential
that all proposals be quantified so that the corresponding
budgetary estimates can be made. Also, a deal
of relevant material is already available In existing stu-
dies and reports recently concluded, the Committee will
avail itself of such material, updating the data where-
ever necessary.
The Committee is requested to its report not
later than April 20, 1974, so that the Ffve-Year Develop-
ment Program requested by the President. can be .prepared
d bmitt d to him not later than Apr-il 30, 1974.

For purposes of coordination, it is desired that all

More Training
Quoted hereunder for information and guidance is Me-
morandum Circular No. 720 dated 28 March 1974 enjoin-
i11g all organizers and sponsors of governntent seminars

concentrate on more action-oriented training.
"MEMORANDUM CIRCULAR NO. 720
"ENJOINING ALL ORGANIZERS AND SPONSORS
OF GOVERNMENT SEMINARS TO OBSERVE A
MORATORIUM ON THESE ACTIVITIES, AND IN-
STEAD CONCENTRATE ON MORE ACTION-
ORIENTED TRAINING.
"It has been noted lately that seminars being conducted
and/or sponsored by government agencies, or by officials
of said agencies, particularly those working outside the
Greater Manila Area, are becoming so frequent that the
attendance in these seminars substantially reduces the
time of the said officials for actual work.
"In view hereof, a moratorium is hereby desired on
such seminars, and instead, all government officials con-
cerned should concentrate on more action-oriented train-
ing. To this end, all seminar workshops should be con-
ducted on a regional level, and any such seminar-work-
shop should state its objectives in more specific and un-
derstanding terms. Moreover, duly recognized authorities
should be properly selected to discuss the proposed topics,
the duration of any seminar-workshop must not exceed
five (5) working days, and must be planned in such a
way that participants therein should still have ample
time for actual work, and at minimum cost on the part of
the Government.
"All concerned should be guided accordingly.
"This Circular takes effect immediately.

The Board approved revised rates of payment to certain


categories of artists and performers being presented from
time to time under the University cultural program.
In this connection, the Board approved the increase in
the cultural fee paid by students from P3.00 to '1,.00 "
semester, effective the first semester, 1974-1975.
The Board noted that the operation of the President's
Council on the Arts is funded solely from cultural fees.
The present rate is barely enough to cover expenses of the
program, and the proposed increase in honorarium of
artists and performers can be considered only if there is
a corresponding increase in income.
TEMPORAL BONE DISSECTION COURSE IN COL-
LEGE OF MEDICINE
The Board authorized the College of Medicine to put
up a temporal bone dissection course as part of the re-
sidency training program of the Department of Otorhino-
laryngology, as well as its postgraduate course! for Otor-
hinolaryngologic surgeons. This course will be offered to
residents of medical schools and practicing surgeons and
will be the first to he offered in the Philippines.
APPOINTMENTS TO EMERITUS POSITIONS
The Board approved the recommendation of the Com-
mittee on Emeritus Appointments for the amendment of
Article 207 of the Revised University Code so that ap-
pointments to emeritus position may be made only for
those with the rank of full professor and not include those
with the rank of associate professor.
The Board agreed with the Committee that the quality
of emeritus appointment would be enhanced if only fac-
ulty members who retire as full professors are eligible
for emeritus appointment. It was further observed that
the number of full professors has already passed the
century mark, a body large enough to furnish the roll
of emeritus professors.
Article 207 of the Code is quoted hereinbelow with the
deleted portions enclosed in brackets:
56 D.P; GAZETTE VOL. V, NO.4
"Article 207. A retired faculty member with the rank
of professor [or associate professor] may be appointed
emeritus professor [or emeritus associate professor as
the case may be] if he has rendered at least 20 years of
active and faithful service to the University and has
achieved marked distinction as a productive scholar,
scientist, or educator, or is widely acknowledged as an
effective and dedicated teacher. A special committee, ap-
pointed by the President, will be responsible for nomina-
ting retired professors [and associate professors] for an
emeritus appointment, the nomination to be submitted to
the President of the University who in his discretion
may endorse the matter to the Board of Regents for
approval."
AMENDMENT TO U.P. ADMINISTRATIVE FELLOW-
SHIP PROGRAM
The Board approved amendments to the U.P. Adminis-
trative Fellowship Program, per recommendation of the
Administrative Fellowship Committee, such that:
a. the manner of payment for tuition and other fees
be made directly to the college wherein the grantee will
enroll;
b. the allowance for books and school supplies be in-
creased from 1'300.00 to paoo.oo annually for the under-
graduate and graduate levels; and
c. the allowance for miscellaneous expenses including
travel be increased from 1'150.00 to rsoo.oo for the under-
graduate level and from 1'200.00 to P400.00 for the grad-
uate leveL
The allowances for books and school supplies and travel-
ing expenses follow the same scheme of payment; that
is, direct payment to the grantee at the start of the
semester.
These amendments will provide the scholars more real-
istic allowances to meet increasing costs.
REVISION OF RATES OF COMPENSATION/HONO-
RARIA FOR NON-REGULAR MEMBERS OF THE
FACULTY, ET. AL.
The Board approved the revision of rates of compensa-
tion/honoraria for (a) non-regular members of the fa-
culty; (h) overload-teaching; and (c) faculty assigned
to teach at the University of the Philippines at Clark
Air Base, effective the first semester, 1974-1975.
This amends pertinent Board resolutions (759th, 82Ist,
and 912th meeting).
In keeping with the decision of the Board of Regents
on the recent upgrading of the general salary scales of
regular University personnel, the rates of compensation
or honoraria for non-regular members of the faculty
(lecturers, etc.}, for overload teaching, and for faculty
members assigned to teach at U.P. at Clark Air Base
were revised similarly in accordance with the following
proposals, effective at the start of the academic year
1974-1975. This also includes the creation of additional
categories of non-regular faculty positions, the qualifica-
tion standards and the rules governing the appointment of
non-regular faculty members. In effect, the pertinent reso-
lutions adopted by the Board in its 759th Meeting .on 15
June 1967 (with respect to rates for lecturers), 821st
Meeting on 29 June 1972 (with respect to honoraria for
overload teaching), and 812th Meeting on 26 August 1971
(with respect to honoraria for U.P. at Clark Air Base)
are amended, superseding the recommendations made in
a memorandum to the President dated 15 January 1974
which were withdrawn from the agenda of the Finance
Committee meeting of 25 January 1974. (Portions in
brackets to be deleted; italicized portions to be added.)

Philippine Center for Advanced Studies
Quezon City
In view of the need of the national government for a
specialized agency consisting of specialists from a wide
variety of disciplines that can readily respond to the need
cf this government for research guidance on problems
and issues of highly critical and sensitive nature, to pro-
vide assessment of national and international developments
as they affect the survival and integrity of the nation
and to aid the government in the formulation of national
policy. the Philippine Center for Advanced Studies
(PCAS) has been created by Presidential Decree 342,
dated November 22, 1973.
In order to make more effective the implementation of
the aforesaid Presidential Decree 342 and to provide
guidance on the manner of its jurisdiction and relation
with the University of the Philippines System, the Board
ci Regents is hereby informed that the peAS is an
autonomous unit in the University of the Philippines
under the sale jurisdiction of its Board of Trustees,
with the President of the Philippines as Chairman, and
the Executive Secretary as the Vice-Chairman, of the
Board.
The Board of Regents is given the following instructions
for the effective implementation of Presidential Decree
No. 342.
1. To transfer, cede and assign or cause the transfer,
cessation or assignment of all funds, personnel, property,
records, facilities, buildings, sites owned by and assigned
to, constituted and organized in the Asian Center to
the peAS for its sole use and operation effective imme-
diately.
2. To extend the same rights and privileges to all
faculty, staff and bona-fide students and all other person-

THE DANGEROUS MISSION OF THE SCHOLAR

(Speech upon being inducted 08 member 0/ the Honor Society 0/ Phi Kappa Phi, 17 April 1974)

nel affiliated with the PCAS as accorded to the same


persons of the University of the Philippines.
3. The Chancellor of the PCAS shall be a member of
the Board of Regents and shall function as a liaison offi-
cer between the Board of Trustees of the PCAS and the
Board of Regents of the University of the Philippines.
4. The Board of Regents and the Board of Trustees
are hereby directed to establish a system of personnel
exchange, joint degree and non-degree instruction pro-
grams, joint research projects and a system of cross
registration within the University of the Philippines
System and the Board of Trustees is hereby directed to
establish a similar system with other government institu-
tions and agencies.
5. The Board of Regents and Board of Trustees shall
The annual tribute that the Phi Kappa Phi pays to
scholarship by accepting into its ranks deserving mem-
bers of the graduating class and other members of the
academic community is one of the University's honored
traditions, Since 1933, the observance of this tradition
has served as one of those reminders at the end of each
academic year, when we release our graduates into the
world, that the University is first and foremost a com-
munity of scholars.
We hear this phrase spoken whenever we refer to the
University and it would seem therefore that to say it now
would be only to repeat the hoariest of cliches. But be-
cause the University is made up of men and women who
are neither infallible nor perfect, and because there is
in the casualness with which the word scholar is often
used a subtle hint of cynicism about its meaning, we
need constantly to re-affirm that this University is a
community of scholars. For, despite appearances, the
university is not simply a bureaucracy, nor a coven of
self-seeking careerists, nor an extension of the interests
of a privileged class, nor a way-station on the road to
wealth and power. A broad sweep of well-manicured cam-
pus, an impressive layout of buildings and facilities, an
assurance of sufficient funds - these are good things
for a university to have, but they are not the things that
support and sustain an institution like the University of
the Philippines.
It is scholarship alone that gives the University its
being as well as its reason for being, scholarship which
makes its central task of teaching effective, scholarship
which will justify history's judgment of this University
as. a true university of the Filipino people.
However, as I said earlier, scholarship is a word so
often bandied about nowadays that cynics tend to regard
it as a convenient cover for doing things that do not
really matter. This is not entirely due to .the
many people to understand what really It
is also due, I am afraid, to the tr-iviality and emptmess
of some academic activities and exercises which masque-
function as mutual advisory bodies in matters pertaining
to common concerns and interests.
6. The Board of Trustees is hereby empowered to
organize or cause the organization of the staff of the
peAS and to effect whatever changes in the position titles
of the personnel as may be necessary.
7. The Board of Regents and the Board of Trustees
are hereby further instructed to implement the provisions
cf Presidential Decree 342 not otherwise specifically men-
tioned in this document.

in the year of our Lord one thousand nine hundred and

rade as scholarship. The suspicion and mistrust of schol-
ars as a manifestation of a latent anti-intellectualism
is a world-wide phenomenon. Unfortunately, the growth
of universities, unprecedented in our time, has created an
entirely new class of so-called scholars who like to af-
fect a posture of aloofness from the reality which lesser
mortals must confront from day to day, and whose mis-
interpretation of that reality often leads to the exacer-
bation of those problems of existence and survival whose
solution it is precisely the task of scholarship to discover.
This is one of the great ironies of our age - an age
that sorely needs knowledge and demands enlightenment,
an age in which science and technology have created an
unprecedented enlargement of consciousness. The cons-
ciousness that understands the need for change also needs
to know how such change should be brought about, and
it is here where the scholar can test his mettle and find
his true vocation.
Yet, it is nevertheless true that ordinary men - the
"lesser mortals" outside the universities - mistrust those
who possess the skills of the mind which can help them
to understand nature and society to the end that they
may achieve some measure of control over the forces that
govern both. It is a mistrust that can be dispelled only
if the scholar recognizes that the value of scholarship lies
in the extent to which knowledge may be utilized by the
people in their struggle for freedom and progress, a
struggle for the control of forces both natural and social
so that man may carve his own destiny and cease to be
the slave of circumstance. To .contribute to that purpose
and to help advance however little mankind's slow and
painful progress towards freedom and happiness - this
is the scholar's task, and it is. a task that calls for pur-
poseful dedication.
It is in this spirit that I accept membership in the
Phi Kappa Phi, and I am sure that in this I speak also
for the other members newly admitted into the Society.
'Ihe scholar has this burden placed upon his shoulders:
of all men he possesses the intellectual skill - and, one
62 V.P. GAZETTE VOL. V, NO.4
hopes, also the intelligence - that can make all the dif-
ference between freedom and enslavement. Like Prome-
theus, who brought light to the world, he can illuminate
for mankind those corners of human existence that re-
main dark and forbidding. Unfortunately, it is also pos-
sible for him not only to add nothing to that light but to
deepen the darkness. It is important therefore that he
recognize the difference.
This is admittedly difficult to do. It demands the shat-
tering of the walls that traditionally have kept the schol-
ar isolated from his people. The events that really mat-
ter are, after all, happening outside the University, in
the fields and factories of this land where the majority of
our people live out their lives. If the University does not
exist for them and serve them, there is no reason for it
to continue existing. And if scholarship is pursued not
for the purpose of making human life more pleasant and
meaningful, but for ends that are selfish or trivial -
then it is not true scholarship at all but merely a form
of self-indulgence.
The tasks of scholarship were pursued in olden times
within the impenetrable quietude of monasteries, and more
recently in the idyllic atmosphere of serene university
campuses. Not any longer. The University of our time
has assumed a dangerous mission, and the scholar must
accept a dangerous calling. Robert M. Hutchins, in his
often-quoted essay on The Dangerous Mission of the Uni-
t1ersity, says that a university has lost its purpose if it
is no longer a "dangerous" institution in terms of the
audacity of its ideas and their 'radical-ness' in relation to
the ideas - political, economic, religious - that happen
h.) be dominant in a given society. It is the scholar's duty
to help the university perform this mission by pursuing
ideas no matter how unpopular thliY may be, no matter
how personally dangerous it may be to hold them, and to
examine reality as critically and as sensitively as he can,
for no other purpose except to approximate the truth as
closely as possible. For it is only by 50 doing that he
can help his people achieve a more effective control of
reality, improve the conditions of their existence, and en-
joy a better quality of life.

MAN OF VISION. Marker in front of the Oblation Plaza features a bas-relief of


Dr. Bienvenido M. Gonzalez, sixth President of the University of the Philippines,
whose eonrage and wisdom surmounted all opposition to the University transfer from
Manila to Diliman in 1949.
REMINISCENCES ON THE U.P. TRANSFER
By GoNZALO W. GONZALEZ
FOTmeT Regent, University of the Philippines
(Remarks in behalf of tke family 0/ the late U.P. PreBident Bienvenido M. Gonzalez, at the inauguration of the
Oblation Plaza, Quezon Hall, U.P. Diliman, 27 April 19TH

On behalf of the family of the late Bienvenido M.


Gonzalez, I wish to Bay that we are deeply grateful for
all you have done in his memory.
A number of anecdotes come to mind this morning.
The leaders of the University then, in realistically taking
stock of the situation, decided that the transfer of the
University from Padre Faura to Diliman should be carried
Gut in the months of December, 1948 and January, 1949
and not between semesters. One of the reasons for this
was the fact that while the students were enthusiastic
about the transfer, some parents, particularly those who
had daughters, may not have been sufficiently informed
regarding the transfer and attendant circumstances, and
might have been tempted to enroll their children elsewhere,
which alternative would have been more readily available
had the transfer been made between semesters.
The last object to be moved from Padre Faura to
Dillman was the Oblation statue, the creation and master-
piece of artist Guillermo Tolentino who is here with us
today. Not long after the Oblation statue arrived at
APRIL 30, 1974 V.P. GAZETTE 63

Dillman, an evening concert was presented by the Con-


servatory of Music. During the concert the lights went
out, perhaps due to the circumstance that the power faci-
lities on this campus had not yet been completely set up.
Some of you will perhaps recall that those who had cars
immediately provided an emergency lighting system by
properly focusing their headlamps, thus furnishing light
for the orchestra which continued with the concert and
was able to complete its performance. The incidents of that
evening illustrate, in a small way, the spirit of coopera-
tion and the initiative of those who had come to this
place.
From a ten-hectare area in Padre Faura the Univer-
sity had moved to its new home of more than 493 hectares.
It may not be generally known but at that time the
University of the Philippines was reputed to have the
largest university campus in the world.
There was of course strong op, 'osition to the transfer
from many quarters. Some of the opposition was petty
and unkind. There were moves on the part of some to
have the Congress declare the presidency of the University
vacant. That was a device occasionally resorted to in
those days by those whose views or motives were not
shared by the President of the University. But all of this
opposition was overcome and credit for the transfer is
due not only to the University president. The transfer
was, of course, the accomplishment of many.
Mention must be made of the students who were prac-
tically unanimous in favoring the transfer and of the
student writers and student leaders who led and expressed
student opinion, among them being writers Hugo Gutier..
rez and Froilan M. Bacungan and student leader Emilio
Espinosa.
Credit is due to the faculty members and the deans,
among them being Patrocinio Valenzuela, Jose Velmonte
end Francisco Benitez, now departed j and Jose Espiritu,
Vidal A. Tan, and Tomas S. Fonacier, to mention a few.
I also recall the younger members of the faculty who
pioneered in Diliman, including our master of ceremonies
this morning, Leopoldo Y. Yabes, Ramon C. Portugal,
Alfredo V. Lagmay and many others.
Credit is due to those who served with Bienvenido M.
Gonzalez on the University Building Committee, namely,
the late Enrique T. Virata and Angel Martines: Juan
Nakptl and Cesar Concio.
Credit is due to the members of the Board of Regents
then composed of Prudencio Langcauon, then Secretary
cf Education; Pio Pedrosa, then Secretary of Finance
and President of the Alumni Association; then Senator
Geronima Pecson, then Congressman Juan Borra, then
Director of Education Cecilia Putong, Jose Yulo and the
late Dr. Gumersindo Garcia.
But honor is particularly due to the President of the
Republic, Manuel L. Quezon, who envisioned the transfer
of the University since 1938 and had initial studies made,
be having regarded the transfer of the University as
"linked with the concept of Philippine independence!'
He was keenly aware of "the impetus which the blessing
of political liberty and would give to
our cultural progress" and he wanted the University to
enter another phase of its existence in new surroundings.
In those days the highest forum of this country was not
located in Quiapo. The campus of the University of the
Philippines, whether located in Padre Faura or in Diliman,
was the "Plaza Miranda" of that time. Whenever there
were great national issues to be discussed and when-
ever the leaders of the Filipino people wanted to inform
the citizenry of new policies or of decisions of national
import they came to the U.P. campus and had a dialogue
with the faculty, the students, the leaders of thought
and the people amid these buildings and wide expanse of
green. The leaders of the country then felt and sensed
that if they could convince the University constituency
ct their plans and decisions, such plans were valid and
would gain nationwide acceptance.
It seems that our State universities of the people undergo
transfers during significant times. If we look back and
read the history of our people as so ably written and
taught by historians Teodoro A. Agoncillo, Cesar A
Majul and Oscar M. Alfonso, among others, we will
recall that the Universidad Literaria de Fflipinas, the
State university during the Philippine revolution and
the war against the United States, had to transfer a num-
her of times. It was established in in 1898, it fol-
lcwed the revolutionary government wherever the latter
went, and it found its way to Tarlac in which province
it held its commencement exercises under its second and
last President, Leon Ma. Guerrero.
I recall my father wryly commenting that his father,
Joaquin Gonzalez (as the first president of that institu-
tion), must have had a harder time transferring the
university of the Philippines. In the case of the transfer
of the University of the Philippines to Dillman, the
opponents of the transfer were Filipinos. In the case
of the transfers of the Universidad Literaria de Fili-
pinas, matters were rendered difficult, if not impossible,
by the armed forces of the United States,
I remember my father musing that it was a strange
thing but if his administration as University president
might perhaps be remembered for anything, it would be
for the transfer to Diliman. A few would perhaps recall
the rebirth of the University from the ashes and ruins
of Padre Faura and Los Banos, with the faculty and
students dispersed and scattered, as it were, by the
four winds.
Fewer still would perhaps remember the momentous,
albeit silent, tasks encountered by any president of a
university worthy of the name. These tasks are at present
being met by your President Salvador P. Lopez. They
are, and I shall use simple terms, firstly, to win
and keep the confidence of the University constituency
which includes not only the faculty, the employees and
the students but also the parents of the students. Second-
ly, to give the young free rein, but also guidance. A
third concern of any University president is to so dis-
charge his duties that his regents will believe in what he
is trying to accomplish, and will maintain their objectivity.
Still another task is to enlist the support and keep the
re-spect of the country's leaders. These are some of the
fundamental challenges that have been faced by all
presidents of this University from Murray Bartlett to
Salvador P. Lopez.
From Malolos, through numerous vicissitudes and sta-
tions, to Tarlac. From Manila to Quezon And so
we celebrate today the 25th anniversary of the latest
transfer of the UniverSity of the PhilipPines; But the

FROI\I ISOLATION TO COI\IMITMENT: 25 YEARS OF V.P. IN DillMAN

University's transfer from Manila to Ditimom, 27 April 1974)
university is always transferring. A part of it moves- and
transfers with each student, with each graduate, wherever
he may go. And it depends on that student and that
alumnus as an individual, and in his life, as to whether
The beautification of the Oblation Plaza is one of the
major collaborative projects of the University and the
F.P. "Alumni Association this year. As President of the
Association and one of the pioneers of the U.P. Republic
in Dillman celebrating the twenty-fifth anniversary of
graduation from the University, I feel that I am able
to express adequately the general sentiment of the
alumni of this great institution relative to t h i ~ project.
To us, this undertaking holds two significant meanings.
First, it is an opportunity to participate in the program
oi the University administration, under the able leadership
of President Lopez, to beautify the University campus.
Its irrefutable premise is that the intellectual endeavors
to which true scholars commit themselves when they
join the academic community are rendered less arduous
and formidable, more easily productive of their intended
results in a physical setting that is pleasant and beauti-
ful.
The transfer of the University of the Philippines from
its cramped location in Manila to the then remote suburb
of DiIiman, was on the surface, precipitated solely by
practical considerations. The transfer had been contem-
plated as early as 1939, when Commonwealth Act 442
decreed "the transfer of all colleges, schools and units
or the University of the Philippines located in Manila to a
site outside the city to be chosen by the Board of Re-
gents with the approval of the President of the Philip-
pines." The outbreak of the Second World War, how-
ever, delayed the transfer until 1949, by which time
it had become an urgent necessity because of the des-
truction of the University's physical plant.
It had been obvious since" 1929 that the University
ef the Philippines needed space to grow and that this. was
not possible in the heart of Ermita. The present site
in Dillman had precisely been chosen so that a real
university community may develop, with space enough
for further expansion. On the eve' of its transfer to
Diliman in 1948, only three years after it resumed
operations, the number of University students had jumped
to pre-war levels, an indication that unless the Univer-
sity moved out of its old site, the need for space would
soon become acute,
or not that particular transfer has brought honor to the
University.
Once again, may I express our deep appreciation for
remembering Bienvenido M. Gonzalez.
Second, and more important than this; however, this
project is to us a restatement of commitment. The Obla-
tion is an authentic progeny of the Renaissance culture.
The use of the nude human figure to symbolize Man's
beauty, intellect and ambition is uniquely apt in the
University.
Whoever comes to the University aspiring for genuine
membership in its community of scholars must, first of all,
undergo a rebirth. To be born anew into the world of
ideas, one must have shed off, not his clothes in the style
of the present day streaker, but the constricting fetters
of all accumulated prejudices and irrational dogmatism.
Such is the outlook that, through the vicissitudes of human
affairs, has made universities in different parts of the
world the vanguards of progress in science, the letters and
the arts. By taking part in providing for adequate setting
for the ultimate symbol of the University, we, the alumni,
rededicate ourselves to the free Man's unceasing quest
for truth, beauty, and human progress.
War damage payments amounting to P13 million had
been set aside for the rehabilitation of the University.
Since the transfer was a foregone conclusion, it was clear
that these funds would be hetter spent in developing the
new campus rather than in restoring the damaged
buildings in Manila. The fact that the P13 million, if
unspent by June 1950, would revert to the U.S. treasury
made urgent the determination of the date of transfer.
On September 15, 1948. therefore, the transfer of the
Manila units to Diliman by January 7 of the next year
was publicly announced by then President Bienvenido M.
Gonzalez.
The transfer was not effected until January' 11, 1949
for various reasons and was not completed until February
11, by which time the Oblation also was transferred to its
present location, thus signalling the beginning of a new
era in the history of the University. There is no doubt
that the transfer was vital to the University's growth as
the premier institution of higher learning in this country.
Scholarship and intelligence need facilities, space and,
it was argued by the staunchest supporters of the trans-
fer, the peace and quiet as well that Dillman's isolation
from the bustle of Manila offered.

Though one cannot take issue with the need for the
transfer, some of the assumptions behind it have been
shown in the Course of the twenty-five years of the Uni-
existence in Dillman, to be fraught with danger.
The Idea of the scholar as necessarily requiring isolation
very quickly developed among some university constituents
an isolationist indifference to what was happening to the
rest of the country. This indifference-and the pride that
some sudents as well as faculty members took in it-gave
birth to the view of the University as somehow apart
the of Philippine society, a view expressed aptly
In the claim that the University was "a republic within
the Republic."
In this sense, therefore, the transfer enhanced the
traditional view of the intellectual and scholar as some-
how apart from the rest of mankind. The historian study-
ing the University would perhaps note that the University
was, in more than a physical sense, isolated indeed from
the rest of the country during the years immediately
following its transfer, its constituents persisting in the
view that the "outside world" need not intrude into the
University's concerns: a view which found expression
not only in its academic life hut also in the kind of writing
that was favored in the University, the kind of cheerful,
unsocial, if not anti-social attitude that was, to outsiders,
the hallmark of the D.P. student as well as of the D.P.
professor.
This illusion was, however, rudely shattered by the
intrusion of the outside world into the University, in the
inevitable backlash of the Huk rebellion that made itself
felt in the University in the mid-fifties and early sixties
in the form of members of Congress taking a dim view of
those academic activities which lay well within the pro-
tection of the constitutional guarantee of academic free-
dom, but which seemed to indicate dangerous tendencies
among some of the faculty and students. The University
was part of the larger society j it was not a republic
within tho Republic.
Though we tend to view the events of these years as
ones to the University, it seems to me that they
were. t?e contrary. The University emerged from
the isolationism of its early Dillman years into an
awareness of the world, so that coincident to the rise
the student movement by the second half of the 60'03,
It was felt t,hat the parochialism of these early years was,
far. from being to the benefit of the university, dangerous
to It.
Dillman is no longer the isolated suburb of Manila
that it used to be. An entire city has grown around it.
Manila is a mere thirty minutes away; downtown Quezon
City a scant ten. Together with this shattering of its
physical isolation has come an awareness of its role
in the national society and of its responsibility to the
people. It is a development that we can only celebrate,
a fact we should regard with hope. In times that are
admittedly somewhat perilous for the intellectual for
"hom the University is home, the University has be-
come even more aware of the value of its mission: to seek
cut the truth which is the key to individual and social
liberation. It is a mission which the University has yet
to accomplish, and a mission both difficult as well. as
perilous to undertake. But it is, in the final analysis,
the only commitment that a University such as ours can
have and the only one that justifies its existence.
In the twenty-five years since the University's transfer
to Dillman, it has gone from isolationism to commitment,
from indifference to concern, from alienation to complete
integration with the hopes and aspirations, the dreams
and the struggles of our people.

AGRICULTURE IN OUR SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC REVOLUTION


By GERARDO P. SICAT
Director-General
National Economic and Development Authority
(Commencement address delivered during the second gradnat-ion ceremonies of the University of the Philippines at
Los Banos, 26 April 1974)
This year's commencement exercises in various institu-
tions of learning represent, in my mind, a celebration of
the future of our nation. The future generation of leaders
-the graduates of this year-is witness to the enormous
changes instituted within our social, economic and political
structures in the first twenty months of new society pro-
grams and to at least an equivalent amount of time to
periods of national indecisions.
The transformation from a turmoil of national discon-
tent, soul-searching moods and prolonged periods of de-
bates to a vista of activated improvements defines the
challenges and promises that our nation and leaders face.
Almost two years ago, institutional changes were made
in our political system through the temporary institution
of martial law, the' adoption of a new Constitution and the
massive efforts undertaken by the government on the re-
alignment of national development activities. These have
laid the foundation for future directions of development
planning.
Role of th-e university
In the process of planning these future directions, the
University of the Philippines is part and parcel of the
institutional changes that have taken place in the country
since September 1972. The creation of an autonomous unit
such as this University of the Philippines at Los Banos
is an example of our continuous search for a relevant role
for the university in our national life.
There are traditional roles assigned to the University by
virtue of its function to provide a supply of trained schol-
ars, teachers, practitioners and researchers. This role is
as essential today as it was in the past. More so, there
is a greater focus on the production of relevant and skilled
66
V.P. GAZETTE
VOL. V, No.4
knowledge that will benefit all sectors of our society in-
cluding education, industry, commerce, finance, and the
government.
Improvement of knowledge can he strengthened through
the proper focus on relevant learning processes and
through the cooperative endeavors of the university and
the private sector. This is important because, in an ea-
sentlally private enterprise economy like ours, only "re-
levant" knowledge becomes applicable to the modes of
improving production. Tied to this is the important need
to relat-e the development programs of the government
with the university sector.
In all areas of national development, the University of
the Philippines, whether Diliman or Los Banos, has pro-
vided continuous support. In D.P. at Los Banos, basic
national problems are studied because of its special his-
tory. Its expertise, for instance, in the formulation of
food production methods, is being fully harnessed to
achieve further improvements in the country's production
of food. Hence, U.P. at Los Banos, formerly U.P. College
of Agriculture, is and should continue to be the focal
arena where scholars, researchers and applicators of
knowledge will devote their efforts in the betterment of
food production.
Food
Food production is inevitably related to health and
nutrition. By the standards of healthy and vigorous na-
tions, our nutrition is sadly deficient. For instance, the
per capita consumption of vegetables in the United States
is ten times more than ours. In Japan, it is even fifteen
times greater. And while there is slightly higher per
capita consumption of meat items by Filipinos than the
Japanese, the Japanese consume three times more fish
than our countrymen. The Americans, mean'!!!ile, eat
about seven to eight times more meat than our countrymen
and roughly the same amount of fish. Per capita consump-
tion of fats and oils in the United States is 12 times larg-
er than ours while in Japan it is three times more. Milk
consumption in the United States is 23 times more than
ours, per capita. In Japan, it is three times more. Caloric
intake of food by our countrymen, although relatively
sufficient to sustain the average Filipino, could be fur-
ther enriched by more food production.
While these figures represent some diversity in dietary
patterns due to cultural differences, the evidence is quite
clear that the Filipino can still attain higher levels of
physical-and by this reason, of mental-fitness if sup-
ported by a strong agricultural sector and, of course, if
he can afford to purchase products of agriculture.
The latter-to afford to buy food-is dependent on
economic development since high incomes lead to higher
consumption. An expansion of agriculture and overall in-
comes in the country would therefore tend to improve the
diet of the average Filipino immensely.
Production und development
The deficiency in our food intake implies that more
efforts should be exerted by the government and citizens
alike in order to reach the food consumption levels of
other countries.
Of course, one aspect of high development is seen in
the way rich countries consume more nonfood items than
food. These countries have reached a very high rate of
development that food production becomes a matter-of-fact.
They have gained expertise in producing goods and serv-
ices beyond their basic food needs.
In our country and other poor countries as well, the
most challenging aspect of development is still the pro-
vision of food to meet the population requirements. It
will be a long time before we can really attain that level
where food production is so taken care of that attention
can be given to nonfood production thereby raising the
average Filipino's nonfood consumption significantly.
'Ve have been net importers of basic staples all these
years. We cannot take pride nor consolation in the known
fact that as a country, our economy is a net exporter of
food products while simultaneously the basic staples need-
ed by our countrymen-rice and corn-are still supple-
mented, even though only in minor portions, by foreign
supply.
True enough, we export sugar, vegetables, fruits, co-
conut, fish and other marine products. But the fact still
remains that we partly rely on foreign supply for our
staples. Hence, it is important that attention be given to
basic production of food by the government. For a coun-
try such as ours, we must in the future settle on a course
of producting staples not only for ourselves but for other
nations as well.
The dimensions of growth that the economy foresees
in the future are enormous. The national Four-Year
Development Plan calls for a continuing expansion of
the gross national product. At the rate of 7 per cent per
rear, a target that may likely be exceeded, we are gear-
ing our planning machinery towards a development tar-
get of 10 per cent per year before the end of this decade.
This would mean a higher rate of growth in per capita
gross national product in the order of at least four to six
per cent within the decade of the 19705.
Development, as everyone knows, is not only cold sta-
tistics. The efforts at redistributing the benefits of pro-
duction to make our countrymen share in development
are all embodied in the many dimensional problems and
strategies we in the government have devised to improve
the welfare of the common man.
This is the reason for the large expansion of efforts
in attracting employment in industries in rural as well
as urban areas-and in going all out for the development
of labor-intensive exports. Efforts are also being exerted
to enlarge the "basic" industries that will produce at R
later stage the linkage of industrial processes with labor-
intensive industries and with agriculture. In such pro-
cesses, there will be a large development of our mineral
and natural resources with greater emphasis on the pro-
cessing of goods before being exported.
Revolutionizing agriculture
The expansion of all productive efforts in the country
will give a pull-and-push drive in agriculture. Given the
low levels of per capita income in the country, any new
income generated for our people will find its way relative.
ly in higher percentages of consumption of basic foods-
foods that are not only confined to cereals but also in.
elude vegetables, livestock and other protein-generating
agricultural products.

The revolutionary measures being undertaken now in


agriculture will not pull down industrial expansion either.
Revolutionizing agriculture can increase production not
only of industrial wage goods like food, clothing, shelter
(which would then become the consumption goods of most
farmers) but also of raw materials and capital goods
used by farmers. The requirements for pesticides and fer-
tilizers could immensely increase by virtue of the expan-
sion of the demand for their use in agriculture.
New demands for inputs that can only originate from
the soil like the need for further feed grains, for indus-
trial raw materials like cotton, rubber, coconut oil and
palm oil, abaca and other natural fibers will be created.
From the recent trauma produced by the sudden realiza-
tion that we are dependent on crude oil and on its fast-
escalating prices, we know that there should be a rapid
utilization of agriculture as a substitute for fuel-based
synthetics. A country as rich in soil, in rain and in sun
as ours is likely to benefit rather than suffer from such
development.
The next ten years and towards the end of this cen-
tury will therefore focus on an enlarging role for the
agricultural sector. In absolute terms, it will continue to
rise, It will continue to experience a diversification of
crops. In the course of this diversification, it will require
men whose training has been based in the many branches
of science in agriculture, such as the graduates of today
in this campus.
Gainful employment in agriculture
The efforts at modernising and expanding product com-
position of agriculture will generate not only a reduction
in food imports and an intensification of export crop
possibilities but also, and most important, the provision
of gainful employment for our people.
Today, about one-third of our population of roughly 40
million people is dependent on the livelihood found in the
urban sector. Two-thirds, meanwhile, are part and par-
cel of the rural sector which is essentially linked with
agriculture. In the process of development that I foresee,
there will be a necessary shift of people from rural to
urban areas. We anticipate that the agricultural sector
will become more productive so that it can release the
extra labor force that it contains to support labor needs
of industries.
The strategy of our industrialization program is to
keep on enlarging the demand for factory and industrial
labor. Thus this process of migration from the rural to
the urban sector is but a consequence of the development
strategy we are pursuing to transform our country into
a modern economy.
Social revolution
In the course of all these, the large part of the social
revolution that has to take place will be one that is
based on agriculture. This is the reason for the efforts
of government to support a program of land reform, to
expand and attune this with the expansion of agricultural
cooperatives, to open up more areas for large-scale agri-
culture, and to support various programs of diversifica-
tion in agriculture.
The social revolution begins with the uplift of
the rural man in dignity, income and social status. From
here, the revolutionized rural sector, specifically the agri-
cultural sector, would bring up the level of activity in
the rest of the economy.
Our strategy of development is to complement the ex-
pansion of agriculture with that of the industrial sector
since the former would induce a greater expansion of
capital goods industry that feeds on agriculture as a source
of demand.
For this reason, the strategy of development in the
1970s and thereafter places greater focus on agricul-
tural improvement. Consequently this would call for a
more sophisticated corps of experts.
I pose the challenge to you, now, the graduates of
i974, to fill up this requirement.
COMMENCEl\IENr ADDRESS
JUAN L. MANUEL
Secretary of Education and Culture
(Delivered at the U.P.'s 8Srd graduation exercises on 28 April 1974)
It is a distinct privilege to address the graduates of this
university-the University of the Philippines-from whose
halls have come many of those who comprise the stalwart
leadership of the country today. Few can deny that the
performance of its graduates in various through
the years, has only added luster to the. tradition of ex-
cellence this great university has established.
University graduates at this period of our development
are indeed specially fortunate for these are uncommon
times. Never before in our history had we been confronted
with vast opportunities for a demonstration of our true
capabilities, our capacity to achieve, as in these most
propitious times.
Philippine society has been i.nfused :he
consciousness of a new power of direction, creation,
novation, and achievement it had not been able to mam-
fest in the not too remote past considering certain dis-
abling factors and forces in our society we then did not
have the unified will, nor the collective manfulness to
resist.
But today, we are witnessing, and we are a part of,
an unprecedented national determination to reform, to
survive, and to advance. There is, as it were, a new
stirring among us, an awakening, a realization, for the
first time by our people that the only warranty for the
kind of future we desire for ourselves and our children
lies in each and everyone of us in the manner we seek
to see, and take on, our patriotic obligations; in the way
we infuse our every action with moral consCIousness and
social concern. .
Government leadership has set the example. National
goals have been made clear and priorities defined. In a
68 U.P. GAZETTE VOL. V, No.4
brief span of a year or two, we have seen the accelerated
pace of agrarian reform implementation j road and bridges
construction; food production; dispersal of health and
medical services particularly in the rural areas j electrifica-
tion, irrigation, and other infrastructure projects; and
above all, a stabilized peace and order situation. The cli-
mate has been made propitious for a cultural renaissance,
for a continuing nourishment of all that comprise our cul-
tural heritage.
All these measures have been conceived and implemented
not only toward promoting self reliance among OUf peo-
ple, but primarily, toward correcting certain imperfections
in our social structure. Many of these measures are de-
signed to widen access of the masses of our people to
opportunities for fuller and more abundant living, and
to enable them to get a full share of the benefits of what-
ever progress this country achieves. Economic growth and
social transformation are indeed valid goals of change; but
transcending these areas of change, is a requirement
basic to the stability of any society and the durability
of any country-strengthening the "spirit and will," the
character of our people. It has been said that there is
nothing wrong with any country, there is no problem,
which the character of its people cannot correct.
It cannot be denied that the most formidable task facing
us today in our effort to reforge our destiny, is indeed
strengthening of the character of our people, the inter-
nalization by them of imperative moral values and the
promotion of healthier attitudes.
The effect of progress in any of the programs earlier
indicated would at best be short-lived unless it is sup-
ported by a corresponding change in the value system of
cur people. And it is this moral reform that is the basic
task for education in this new society. Considering the
hobbling attitudes and old-society habits that have heen
encrusted in many of us, the task will not be easy. But
we have started.
It may be recalled that, toward the reform of education
if; this country, a number of changes in educational poli-
cies, programs, and projects have been instituted. While
admittedly, the patent purpose of such policies and pro-
grams was to achieve greater efficiency and perhaps econ-
omy in the educational process, it must be underscored
that at the core of such policies and programs is the
changing of certain impeding attitudes and the strength-
ening of moral values urgent to the social transformation
we desire.
What are some of our policies and programs in educa-
-tion?
One of our major emphases is that of making education
relevant and responsive to urgent and crucial problems
confronting the nation. The school, college, or uni-
versity should not remain an ivory tower concerned
solely with academic excellence and indifferent to the
serious social and economic problems of the society that
it is supposed to serve. This should not be.
Therefore we insisted on that brand .of education that
is not only relevant but also development oriented. We
have seen to it that the curriculum in all levels includes
learning experiences in drug education, population eduea-
tton, agrarian reform and taxation education, food pro-
duction and nutrition education, conservation education,
consumers and cooperatives education. For we are con-
vinced that only thus can we make education a potent in-
strument in raising the level of living and the quality of
life of our people.
In am happy to note that the President of the Univer-
sity of the Philippines holds a similar view. He was quoted
in the latest issue of the Carillon as baving called for the
"shattering of the walls of isolation that traditionally had
kept the scholar isolated from his people." The D.P.
President further said and I quote:
"The events that really matter are, after all, happening
outside the University, in the fields and factories of this
land where the majority of our people live out their lives.
If the University does not exist for them and serve them,
there is no reason for it to continue existing. And if
scholarship is pursued not for the purpose of making
human life more pleasant and meaningful, but for ends
that are selfish or trivial-then it is not true scholarship
at all but merely a form of self-indulgence."
The National College Entrance Examination system,
'which many see only as a measure for restricting enrol-
ment in college, is actually a way of streaming-i-of identi-
fying those who may go into higher education and those
whose need is "further education." In time, through this
system, we hope to correct prevailing notions that the
only desirable or worthwhile education is an academic
or liberal education. In time, we hope to place things
in proper perspective to the end that our people will
realize, as they should have a long time ago, that the
essential services in this society are not a monopoly of
college-trained men; that each of us has certain gifts and
certain skills; that each of us has distinct roles to fulfill
and that we must do .what we can do, and what we have
to do: that dignity is not inherent in the calling or
vocation, or profession; that whatever our calling, it
is we who infuse it with excellence or with mediocrity;
with respectability or with shabbiness; with high nobility
or with dishonor.
On the language of instruction problem we are imple-
menting the policy of bilingualism as approved by the
National Board of Education. This policy has for its ob-
jective the development of a bilingual nation that can
communicate with ease and facility in both English and
Pilipino,
This policy of bilingualism allows the use of Pilipino
and not only English, as medium of instruction in certain
SUbject areas in the elementary and secondary levels and
even in college, provided there are adequate textbooks
and instructional materials and competent teachers to
teach in the medium. This is one way of promoting a
stronger sense of national identity and a stronger feeling
cf nationalism. We subscribe to the view that language
exerts an invisible, unexplainable impact on the culture
and the sentiments of a people. Let it be understood, how.
ever, that the desirability of the wider use of the na-
tional language has not, blinded us to the necessity, the
advantages of maintaining proficiency in English parti-
cularly at the higher levels. We are aware that a knowledge
of the language gives us access to the vast knowledge
gained in the world today-particularly in the areas of
science and technology.
The Youth Civic Action Program, which is now a.
requirement for college graduation, has manifold values.
In fact, it is perhaps an excellent approach toward meet-
ing the loud demands for relevance that have shattered

APRIL 30, 1974 V.P. GAZETTE 69

the serenity of university campuses all over the world.


In its ideal concept, the program is intended to serve as a
touchstone, so to speak, by which the student may deter-
mine the effectiveness, the worth-while-ness of the training
end knowledge he has gained, and, on the basis of such
YCAP experience, which is supposed to be the trial appli-
cation of his training thus far, provide the school with
feedback which could be the basis of timely revisions or
adjustments in the curriculum to make it meet the re-
quirements to work situations as they exist in actuality,
It must be accepted that hitherto universities, at least,
most of them, have operated in a detached way following
the traditional, conservative concept of a function of a
university.
Basically, as generally understood, the value seen for
YCAP is the development of proper understanding and
values among our youth as well as a means of helping
rural communities advance themselves through the en-
lightened leadership of our youth.
It has been hoped that through the Youth Civic
Action Program, students out of the contrived environ-
ment of their academic classrooms, out of the antiseptic
walls of the university, could have a more sensitive un-
derstanding, a fuller grasp of the conditions as they exist
at the grassroots; of the needs of their less privileged
fellowmen j and accordingly see their obligation to society
and the role they must discharge. It is primarily intended
to imbue students with a deeper social consciousness or
"social wisdom," which had been sorely wanting in our
old society.
And, in this connection, lies the core of my message
to the graduates today. A role of leadership has in-
variably been ascribed to university graduates considering
that the training and education they were privileged to
receive is indeed a leadership preparation. This role is
not a privilege; it is an obligation.
Hitherto, however, such leadership has been principally
exercised and demonstrated in terms' of positions of sig-
nificance-in government or in private offices, or in terms
cf individual brilliant accomplishments. And such leader-
ship tended to converge in urban centers. That is why
even as we had legions of college graduates, more, per
thousand population, than many developed countries of
the world, the vastness of our communities remained
poor and unchanged; with their people disadvantaged and
deprived in many ways. This concept of leadership of the
university graduate needs to be reexamined and reassessed.
In line with the objective of social reform, in the light
of the social transformation sought in certain provisions
of the New Constitution, a new kind of leadership, a so-
cially conscious leadership, is expected of university grad-
uates now. It is no longer sufficient that university
graduates get employment and are able to support them-
selves and even rise to positions of significance; no, that
would not be enough.
A university education should be viewed as a privilege
and a debt to society. It is imperative that the benefits
of such university education be shared, and applied to
improved the lives of our fellowmen, to reduce poverty
and privation in any way; to spread the benefits hitherto
enjoyed by a thin upper crust of our society.
The test of true leadership and achievement therefore,
would be not in your individual accomplishments, but
rather in terms of the number of lives you have helped
enrich; the number of communities whose self-reliance
you developed and whose aspirations you have helped
realize; and the number of submerged lives you have
raised to a level worthy of human dignity. May you
demonstrate such leadership.

mentary Photography and Advanced Photography, effec-
tive the first semester 1974-1975, provided that no part of

The Board noted that the photo-laboratory of the Col-
lege had been in operation for three semesters now. Some
parts. of the photography equipment need replacement,
while the laboratory still lacks other much need equip.
mcnt and accessories. Since the cost of photography ma-
terials has increased and the College is not in a position
to finance all its needs, collection of a laboratory fee from
students enrolled in photography is deemed necessary.

CREATION OF POSITIONS IN PHILIPPINE GEN
ERAL HOSPITAL
The Board approved the creation of the following classes
of positions for the Department of Rehabilitation Medicine,
Philippine General Hospital:
Physical Therapy Trainee (Range 4); and
Occupational Therapy Trainee (Range 4).
It is understood that upon passing the Board Examina-
tions for Physical Therapists and Occupational Therapists,
incumbents of the above positions will be upgraded to
Range Gand will receive the minimum salary of the range.
The Board noted that the Department of Rehabilitation
Medicine is physically handicapped by the lack of physical
therapists, hampering its services to disabled patients.
Creation of the above trainee positions will enable the
Hospital to employ new graduates who have not taken
any Board Examinations for Therapists." Holders of the
positions will be under the supervision of the Medical
Staff.
RECLASSIFICATION OF POSITION OF ASSISTANT
AUDITOR IN U.P. AT LOS BANOS
The Board approved the reclassification of the position
of the Assiatnnt Auditor from Range 10 to Range J 2 in

AFFILIATION OF UPSI SCHOOL OF MEDICAL X


RAY TECHNOLOGY STUDENTS WITH HEALTH
SERVICE
The Board approved the request of The Marian Schools,
UN Avenue, Manila, for the aff'iliation of the UPSI
School of Medical X-ray Technology students with the
Health Service in connection with their clinical practice,
subject to pertinent University rules and regulations and
the following conditions:
a. Two (at most three) interns will be accepted at a
time; and
b. Payment of an affiliation fee of P30.00 toP35.00 per
intern.
the Administrative Personnel Class in the University of
the Philippines at Los Banos) for the following reasons:
a. With the grant of autonomy to U.P. at Los Banos,
thc Assistant Auditor in Los Banos has assumed greater
responsibilities. At present the D.P. at Los Banos Auditor
still receives the same salary as division chief of the
Auditor's Office of the D.P. System.
b. Within the scope of his delegated authority, the
Assistant Auditor of the U.P. at Los Banos will necessarily
have to exercise greater discretion than does a division
chief, since for all intents and purposes, he acts for and
in behalf of the U.P. System Auditor on matters con-
cerning the autonomous university.
CHANGE OF NAME TO UNIVERSITY HIGH SCHOOL
The Board approved the change of name of the D.P.
High-Preparatory School to Unit'e1'sity High Schoo', pur-
suant to the Board's resolution asking for a new name for

tute of Planning to hietinue of Environmenta,l Planm'nu,
consistent with its functions.
CREATION OF OFFICES AND POSITIONS IN COL.
LEGE OF LAW
The Board approved the creation of the following offices
and positions in view of curricular and other changes in
the College of Law:
a. Creation of an "Office of Legal Aid" with a detailed
description of its purposes, activities and organizational
setup. The revision of courses in the senior year incorporat-
ing practicum Legal Technique I and Legal Technique II

headed by a director.
b. Creation of the position of Director of Graduate
Studies for better planning and coordination of graduate
work, the College being in the process of 'revitalizing its
graduate offerings.
c. Change in the title of Head, Law Evening Division
to Director, Law Euenirut Division. The incumbent of this

sary personnel (namely, a clerk-typist and a custodial
worker} will be provided the Law Evening Division.
In this connection, the three directors above will serve
without additional compensation; however, aside from

d. The automatic pre-retirement increase in salary shall
not apply to retiring academic personnel who have attained
the level of Professor VIII or the highest step in the
salary scale for academic non-teaching personnel (e.g,
Step G of University Guidance Counselor or University
Librarian) ,
e. The giving of an automatic pre-retirement salary in-
crease shall not preclude giving of merit promotion/in-
crease to academic personnel due for retirement; P'iO-
'vided, however, that such merit promotion shall be given
not later than one year prior to the effectivity date of the
compulsory retirement.
APPOINTMENT OF NON-REGULAR MEMBERS OF
FACULTY
The Board approved the correction of the rules govern-
ing the appointment of non-regular members of the fac-
ulty approved by the Board at its 845th meeting on 2S
April 1974, particularly item No.6 under the heading
"Qualif'ication Standards and Additional Rules," as fol-
lows:
IIG. All appointments to the positions of [Lecturers]
Senior Lecturers OR Professorial Lecturers [or
Special Lecturers] shall be submitted to the
Board of Regents for approval."
(Words in capital letters added; words in brac-
kets deleted.)
The above correction is necessary in that the Board at
its 828th meeting on 21 December 1972 had delegated
to the President or the Chancellor the approval of ap-
pointments of lecturers and special lecturers.
AUTHORITY FOR PRESIDENT OF THE SYSTEM
OR CHANCELLOR TO ENTER INTO FORMAL
AGREEIiIENTS, OR ACADEMIC CONSORTIA, WITH
OTHER INSTITUTIONS OF HIGHER LEARNING
BOTH HERE AND ABROAD
'The Board authorized the President of the System or
the Chancellor of any autonomous university of the Sys-
tem, to enter into formal agreements1 or academic con-
sortia, with other institutions of higher learning both
here and abroad, under which the facilities, personnel
and other resources of one may be availed of by the
other or others for purposes of instructional, research,
consultnncy and other related activities on the basis of
reciprocity and a fair or reasonable and mutual sharing
of resources and respousibi litdcs, subject to the following
guidelines:
a. The University of the Philippines shall be repre-
sented by the President of the U.P. System, or by the
Chancellor of an nutcmous university, in signing the
agreement. The head of the other institution(s) con-
cerned shall represent the other pm-ty. Where a separnte
memorandum of agreement setting forth the
iug details of the program of academic coopcrabon IS to

teaching load under existing University rules) J they will


be allowed to cumulate their vacation and sick leaves.
CHANGE OF NAME TO DEPARTMENT OF NUTRI-
TION IN INSTITUTE OF PUBLIC HEALTH
The Board approved the change in name of the Depart-
ment of Physiological Hygiene and Nutrition to De-
llQ.1-tmcnt of Nutrition in the Institute of Public Health.
In this connection, the Board approved the transfer
of the unit on Physiological Hygiene to the Department
of Public Health Engineering.
The Board noted that the name "Department of Physio-
logical Hygiene and Nutrition" conveys the impression
that this department undertakes a substantial if not an
equal load of the teaching and research program in
Physiological Hygiene as in Nutrition. Records will attest,
however, that course offerings in the Department are
concentrated in Nutrition. The two areas, with their re-
spective faculties, have moved into different and un-
related directions with divergent foci of interests.
To provide an atmosphere conducive to developing
the full teaching and research potential of the staff in
both disciplines and give 'due recognition that each de-
serves, the formal separation hereinabove was approved.
AUTOMATIC SALARY INCREASE FOR FACULTY
MEMBERS AND ACADEMIC NON-TEACHING PER-
SONNEL TO RETIRE AT COMPULSORY RETIRE-
MENT AGE OF GS
The Board approved the automatic increase in salary
for faculty members and academic non-teaching personnel
who will retire at the compulsory retirement age of 65,
subject to the following conditions.
a. The automatic pre-retirement increase in salary shall
be given net earlier than a year nor later than three
months prior to the date of retirement, as follows:
(1) One-step increase-for those who shall have
rendered at least 15 years but below 20 years of service
to the University at the time of retirement.
(2) Two-step increase-for those who shall have
rendered at least 20 years' service to the University
at the time of retirement, provided they have not
attained the rank of at least Professor VII or at least
Step 5 of the scale for University Guidance Counsellor
or University Librarian.
(3) In exceptionally meritorious cases, the President
may give more than the one-step and two-step automatic
increases indicated in (1) and (2) above.
b. To be used strictly for retirement purposes to take
care of retiring faculty members in Step V or VI of the
Assistant Professor or Associate Professor r-ank, two
additional steps in each of these ranks are created as
follows (based on the 19,3 salary scalej : ,
Assistant Professor VII-P1G,\)80,OO per annum
Assistant Professor ViII-P17
1940.00
per annum
Associate Professor VII-P22,240.00 per annum
Associate Professor VIII-P23,7GO.OO per annum
c. For the purpose of determining the automatic pre-
retirement salary increases proposed in item (a) above for
academic non-teaching personnel, the 1973 salary scale
shall be considered as a continuous scale, as follows:

be formulated, the dean of the V.P. regional unit con-
cerned may be authorized to represent the University and
sign the agreement. In all cases, however, such implement-
ing memorandum of agreement shall form an integral
part of the basic Agreement which the President or the
Chancellor signs.
b. An academic consortium or agreement shall be ef-
fective for a period of one (1) year from the date of its
approval by the Board of Regents, subject to renewal for
like periods, upon mutual agreement of the parties. Re-
newals of agreements shall be subject only to approval by
the President or the Chancellor. The agreement may be
terminated by any of the parties upon a written notifica-
tion of at least three months before the time stipulated
for such termination.
c. Subject to the requirements of the University's acad-
emic programs, both on-going and projected, which shall
have priority over outside activities or involvement of its
personnel, faculty members whose services may be need-
ed by the other institution (s) may be allowed to teach,
handle consultancy or perform similar services therein
under the following conditions and to pertinent Univer-
sity rules and regulations:
(I) They should not be carrying less than the regular
teaching load during the academic terms in which their
services are sought by the other institutions;
(2) They shall not be entitled to either overload or reo
duction of load privileges during the academic terms in
question;
(3) They shall not teach more than [two] six hours
[each day] a week at the other institution(s), and shall
be paid reasonable rates of honorarium commensurate
with their positions in the University, to be borne solely
by the requesting institution(s); (Portions in brackets de-
leted; those in italics addcd.)
(4) where consultancy 01' similar services are rendered,
they shall render such services to the other institution(s)
outside of their regular service hours in the University;
(G) No research projects in the University shall be
delayed or interrupted by reason of a detail of the facul-
ty .01' other personnel concerned to the other institu-
tion(s);
(G) Permission to teach in the other institution(s)
shall be secured by individual faculty members concerned,
the approved inter-institutional memorandum of agree-
ment notwithstanding. Such permission to teach may be
withdrawn or revoked at uny time when such teaching
adversely affects efficiency and exigency of the service
in the University.
In this connection, the following academic consorfin
initially recommended were approved effective the acade-
mic year 1!>74-75;
a. Between the U.P. (U.P. at Baguio) and the Armed
Forces of the Philippines (Philippine Military Academy);
b. Between the D.P. (D.P. at Baguio) and Brent
School at Baguio Oity ;
c. Between the V.P. (D.P. at Iloilo), Central Philip-
pine University and West Visayas State College, all lo-
cated at Iloilo City;
d. Between the V.P., Ateneo de Manila University and
De La Salle College. (Consortium on physical science and
mathematics involving the three inatitutions.)
The Board ?lOted that the details of the respective me-
morandum of agreements above will be worked out sep-
arately upon approval by the Board in accordance with
the foregoing guidelines.
While it is recognized that an academic consortium is
not an easy course to follow, there is substantial encour-
agement to be derived from the practice of academic
sharing of facilities and resources, considering that insti-
tutions of higher learning have their own particular
strengths and weaknesses. The advantages, therefore, to
be derived from entering into an academic alliance fully
justify the above recommendations.
The Board approved the above amendments on item (3)
under letter 'c' of the guidelines upon motion of Regent
Samonte duly seconded, for the following reasons:
The Board considered the original recommendation of
two hours a day as too heavy a load, because assuming
the faculty member will teach five (5) days a week in
another institution, this will amount to a load of 10 units,
and the normal academic load in the University is 12 units.
Moreover, the University rules allow an overload-teaching
of only six (6) units for a faculty member.
In this connection, the Board [urther agreed as a mat-
tel' of policy to limit the number of academic consortium
agreements to only three (3) at a time insofar as the
units in Dillman and Los Banos are concerned. The Board
also made it understood that rendering services in another
institution under such conssrtium agreements shall not be
mandatory but purely voluntary on the part of the fac-
ulty members of the Unlversity.
CREATION OF POSITION OF ASSISTANT TO THE
DEAN IN U.P. COLLEGE IN MANILA
The Board approved the creation of the position of As-
sistant to the Dean in the U.P. College in Manila for
working students, effective upon approval, whose duty
shall be to undertake an in-depth study of the problems
besetting the working students and to propose solutions
thereto to the Dean, to plan and coordinate with the Sec-
retary and the Chairmen of Divisions to the course offer-
ings in the e..... ening, and to perform such other functions
as may be assigned to him by the Dean.
The need for such an office has become necessary with
the opening of day' classes since the academic year 1972-
1a73. Working students face problems not quite similar to
those of the day students who now constitute the bulk of
the studentry and who are well taken cure of by the
Offices of the Secretary and the Guidance Counsellor.
INCREASE IN MONTHLY STIPEND FOR UPCA UN-
DERGRADUATE FI';LLOWSHiP
The Board approved the increase in the monthly sti-
pend for the upeA Undergraduate Fellowship from
P75.00 to PlOD.OO per month.
A review and evaluation of the different felloe.... ships
offered in the V.P. at Los Banos indicated that the re-
gular monthly stipend is from Pl00.00 to P150.00 with
P200.00 to P250.00 for matriculation fees and 1'100.00 to
P120.00 book allowances, in addition to thesis support.
On the other hand, the UPCA undergraduate fellowship
provides only P75.00 monthly stipend and free tuition.

INCREASE IN LIVING ALLOWANCE OF U.P.-


GOVERNMENT SCHOLARS
The Board approved the increase in the living allow-
ance of D.P.-Government scholars from Pl'i5.00 to P200.00
a month for ten (10) months and the payment of cloth-
ing allowance in the first and third years of the scholar-
ship in lieu of each semester as is the present practice.
The increase in living allowance is believed justified
in view of the increased cost of living. Moreover, the
payment of clothing allowance in the first and third years
is believed more in keeping with the spirit of the scholar-
ship program.
AMENDMENT OF BOARD'S RESOLUTION REGARD-
ING REDUCED TUITION PRIVILEGES FOR FACUL-
TY AND OTHER PERSONNEL
The Board approved the joint request of the presidents
of the ONAPUP (Organization of the Non-Academic
Personnel of the D.P.), UPSA (U.P. Supervisors' As-
sociation), and UPFO (U.P. Faculty Organization) for
the amendment of the Board's resolution regarding re-
duced tuition privileges for faculty and other personnel
(552nd meeting, 20 December 1951 as amended at 816th
meeting, 27 January 1972), in order to read as follows:
'That children and wife or husband of permanent full-
time Iaculty members and of other full-time personnel,
including those on daily wage basis, who have served con-
tinuously in their work for a period of not less than flve
(5) years, of the University proper, studying in the Univer-
sity of the Philippines, be exempted from the payment of
tuition fees beginning the second semester of the academic
year 1951-1952, provided said students [obtained an
average grade not lower than '3' (for undergraduates)
and '2' (for graduates) or 75% or better, for a normal
academic load] 1Jassed a 1n7:11i1Jlmn of twelve (J 2) units

(Portion in brackets to be deleted; those in italics to be
added.)
ESTABLISHMENT OF A CENTER FOR POLICY AND
DEVELOPMENT STUDIES IN U.P. AT LOS BANOS
The Board approved the establishment of a Center for
Policy and Development Studies in the U.P, at los Bafios
to serve as an integrating mechanism to mobilize and
harness the various departments and disciplines in the
task of assisting the poliey-makera in the analysis of
policy issues and problems, with a view to better policy
formulation, part.iculru-ly in the field of agricultural and
rural development.
To be headed by an Executive Director, the proposed
Center shall be under the general supervision of an Exec-
utive Board with the Chancellor as chairman and all
heads of the UPLB units as members. The Executive
Director shall be member-secretary of the Executive

sale shall be immediately registered in the name of

sale or by expropriation, and after taking possession
thereof, UPLB shall allow the [tenant-tiller] landown-
ers, lessees or tenant-tillers to harvest any of their
respective standing annual crops in areas not imme-
diately needed for experimentation and infrastructure
development. Areas with standing crops so affected
will be compensated based on the amount actually spent
on the said standing crops. UPLB shall also give them
enough time to transfer their houses out of the area
to be acquired to their respective homelots in the barrio
site or to some other location."
For parcels of land being tilled by owners or lessees,
we should extend the same privilege as we do to tenants.

HISTORICAL PAPERS AND DOCUMENTS


ADVICE TO CLASS 1978
By SALVADOR P. Lorez
President, University of the Philippines
(Speech during the Freshman Orientation Pracram, 10 June 1974, University Theater)

One of the most common complaints of freshmen during


their first few months in the University of the Philip-
pines concerns the relative impersonality of the relation-
ship between teachers and students. The teacher to whom
the high school student ran for advice on school as well as
on personal maters has been replaced in the University
by the professor who generally limits himself to pres-
cribing what courses to take, approving changes of matri-
culation, and making himself available for consultation on
academic matters. Instead of the teacher who used to
call students by their first names, there is now a pro..
fesaor who insists on calling them mister or miss, sug-
gesting to the freshman a distance between teacher and
learner which did not seem to exist in high school. And
where he had been guided at every step and helped in
every little detail, the student finds that in the Univer-
sity he is pretty much left to himself. Everywhere there
seems to be a conspiracy to leave him alone, to let him
fend for himself: to master the names and locations of
the many buildings on campus, the departments in each
building, the names of professors in each department. He
is expected to master the intricacies of course offerings,
the mysteries of the library, the difficulties of term paper-
writing-all of the process by which he is to be educated
in the course of his stay in the University.
Nat surprisingly, therefore, the freshman is often be-
wildered, hurt, lonely, even desperate during th-ese first
painful months. Eventually he gets over this period, and
he accepts its lessons as an indispensable part of his
adjustment to a new environment. If he fails to come to
terms with the environment, he runs the risk of becoming
a casualty at the end of the semester or of the school-
year who must, alas, seek higher education elsewhere-
failure being as often caused by the inability to adjust
to university life as by poor study habits, inadequate pre-
paration, or poor teachers.
You might ask why this impersonality should exist at
all, why the University campus should not be as H h ~ m e y "
and cheery as the high school campus. I would reply
that University must treat its students as adults, which
means treating them as equals and partners in the learn-
ing process, not children to be hectored or talked down to.
The University assumes that while the high school student
was a child to be coddled, scolded or patronized, the
university student is a young man or young woman em-
barked on the serious business of learning and must be
treated as such. What the freshman therefore miscon-
strues as impersonal relationships are in reality changed
relationships manifesting the University's assumption
that its students are adults. The freshman who becames a
sophomore, then a junior, and finally a senior discovers
in the course of his progress up the academic ladder that
even more meaningful relationships can develop between
him and his professors. These relationships consist of
mutual respect and appreciation growing out of a com-
mon dedication to the pursuit of knowledge. I would
therefore suggest that you keep this in mind as you go
through your first few months in the University. Far
from lamenting the situation, you should rejoice in it,
for it marks your initiation into the adult world of learn-
ing-Iearning in the sense of being engaged in a serious
attempt to understand man, society, and the world we
live in.
While the University may be many things to many
people-a complex of impressive buildings, for example,
or a place to look for a suitable wife or husband, or a
battleground where one may test one's skills in the mar-
tial arts during fraternity rumbles-it is first and fore-
most a repository of the knowledge and the skills that
many generations of men have acquired while contending
with the forces of this earth, natural as well as social.
It is as well a place for the advancement of knowledge,
for improving upon it, and for renewing it, so that hu-
man-life may be made less difficult and more rewarding.
Throughout its sixty-six-year- history the University of
the Philippines has tried to be a university in this sense;
it is this determination which has made it the vital and
indispensable institution that it is today. In this Univer-
f:ity you will find a vast storehouse of knowledge con-
sisting not only of a library whose collection is far larger
than any in~ Southeast Asia, hut also of the rich and
varied skills and capabilities of its faculty. You have,
104
U.P. GAZETTE
VOL. V, No.6
therefore, the opportunity to come in contact not only
with the best that has been written in the world but also
to hold converse with some of the best minds we have in
the country today. This is an opportunity accorded to
very few, yourselves included, and you must take full
advantage of it.
Some of you may say all this is quite beside the point.
Though you have decided to have a college education and
have chosen the University of the Philipines for this pur-
pose, you have done so because your brightest classmates
are doing the same thing, or because your parents have
told j"OU to do so, or because you believe a university
education, but especially a D.P. degree, is a passport to
a well-paying job which will enable you eveutually to go
about the business of getting married and raising a fam-
ily in more or less comfortable circumstances. The latter
are valid concerns, involving some of the deeply felt long-
ings of men everywhere. I suggest, however, that they
should not be your sale concern and, indeed, that they
cannot be your sale concern, given the realities of Philip.
pine society today.
In spite of the relative isolation of this campus, we
cannot ignore the larger community of which it is a part.
The world outside the campus is outside it only in a geo-
graphic sense; it is a world with which we must come to
terms, which intrudes into the University however im-
mune it may seem to be from the troubles and anxieties
that bedevil that world. Make no mistake about it: the
University is not a thing apart from Philippine society.
It mirrors the strengths and weaknesses, the failures and
successes of the Filipino nation, and as such is inextricably
involved with it. In this University, therefore, the pur-
suit of learning does not occur in a vacuum, but in the
context of the political, economic and cultural life of the
nation.
This is not, however, a one-way process. The Univer-
sity is also a force in the intellectual life of the nation.
Some of you may say that you do not intend to be part
of the University for always and that you shall be leaving
it as soon as you receive the degree or degrees you are
aspiring for. That is certainly true, but there is a sense
in which you will never leave the University, because the
University will never leave you. Your life here will be
part of your life forever, and the University will be re-
flected in what you think, say and do for all time, after-
wards.
What our country least needs in this critical period of
its history is the type of individual who is concerned solely
with his own affair, with the little world defined by
his interests and those of his immediate family. This is
the kind of individualism that, having been given the
chance to remake the world, has only laid it waste. What
we need today is the individual who regards the con-
cerns of the nation and its problems as his own. It should
not be unreasonable to demand this of every Filipino. It
is a matter of recognizing that as part of the nation we
cannot be aloof from its concerns, for what the nation is
affects individuals, determines the condition of our lives,
and shapes our destinies. It is in this sense that we all
have a profound personal interest in what is happening
in our country and in influencing events.
We hope that the University shall enrich your relation-
ship with other human beings and with society at large,
that you will use the knowledge you acquire and the skills
you develop here in the service of our people rather than
for narrow and selfish purposes. Vt,'e hope that you will
acquire here an appreciation of the role that knowledge
plays in the advancement of those ends that all men of
sense agree to be desirable-prosperity, peace and justice,
an end to brutality and falsehood, freedom in its most
profound and meaningfu1 sense. Surely it is a perversion
of knowledge to use it for ends antithetical to these, for
knowledge to be used, for example, in support of cruelty,
enslavement and murder.
I have chosen to speak of these things today instead of
the admonition to study well, to use the library wisely, to
choose extra-curricular activities with care, etc., because
it seems to me extremely important for freshmen to have
a clear idea, from the very start, of the ultimate purpose
of education. In the crush for classcards, the flurry of
arranging schedules, the pressure to accomplish the many
registration forms, it is easy to misplace one's intentions
in pursuing a University education. During the years
that you will be staying here, in the welter of term papers
that have to be written, books to be read, lectures to be
heard, and laboratory experiments to be conducted, you
can easily lose sight of the primary goals of a university
education. I trust that each of you will pursue the course
you have chosen with these admonitions and injunctions
constantly in mind, and that you will emerge from here,
four or eight years hence, more keenly aware of the goals
we have envisioned together this morning, and more deeply
conscious of your responsibility to the nation and to the
world.

THE RIGHT TO KJ"lOW


B ~ REGENT ABRAHAM F. SARMIENTO
(Speech delivered during the Fourth Commencement Exercises at V.P. at Clark Air Base, 19 June 1974)
The University of the Philippines at Clark Air Force
Base was established in 1954-this is its twentieth year
of existence. Starting out as a modest and tentative
arrangement for the teaching of a few subjects, it has,
through the years, transformed into a permanent external
unit of the University with broader and more complex
academic programs, including several degree courses. The
graduates here tonight are some of the well-deserving
beneficiaries of such expansion.
Graduation ceremonies are always a time for serious
thought-tonight my thoughts turn to the significance of
the University's presence in what might properly be
considered an alien territory.
The continuing growth of the University branch here
is a source of special satisfaction to all who value the
University and the things that it stands for. This coopera-
tive endeavor between a Filipino university and the Ameri-
can government is not a mere incident of political alliance,
JUNE 30,1974 V.P. GAZETTE
105

although common agreement on 'fundamental principles


of politics facilitated greatly its 'establishment, Lesser
still is it in the nature of a mere service contract entered
into to satisfy purely utilitarian considerations, although
utility of the training to the different individuals and
to the institution to which they belong is an inevitable
consequence.
Over and above these considerations, the growth and
expansion 'of the University here are an affirmation of a
time-honored and venerable, if frequently embattled,
dictum "you shall seek the truth for the truth shall make
you free" and the implicit acceptance of its rationale and
the premises and conditions indispensable for its proper
pursuit.
One of these premises is the universality of the pursuit
of knowledge. By this is meant that the process of learn-
ing the accumulated wisdom of the ages, disseminating
knowledge, and pushing further the frontiers of truth
are neither the monopoly nor the preserve of anyone
people, or anyone race, or anyone religion, or anyone
political ideology. It is the legitimate heritage of all
thinking humanity. As a former President of the Untver-
sity of the Philippines has so eloquently stated:
It is the aim of great universities to attract men
and women from all conditions of life. They keep
their doors open to citizens and aliens alike. From
their very nature, their appeal is cosmopolitan and
their mission universal. The only passport they de-
mand is the passport of intellectual competence. The
only guarantee they require is the guarantee of
honesty of purpose 'and dedication to work.
Their faculties are recruited from the best avail-
able teachers and investigators whom they could
attract. Neither race, nor color, nor nationality, nor
creed, nor political belief bars the competent scholar
and able scientist from their' classrooms and labora-
tories. Neither are these same factors ever con-
sidered in the admission of students.
Our century has been witness to the rapid dismantle-
ment of time-encrusted prejudices that have worked to
disenfranchise a substantial number of human beings from
meaningful participation in the adventure of advancing
human knowledge. In the United States, for instance,
I note with understandable optimism that the Federal
Supreme Court has, by means of what some critics call
"judicial legislation," irrevocably opened the doors of
educational institutions on the principle of equal 'rights,
not only to racial and religious minorities, but also to
political dissenters. Exchanges of scholars and fellows,
some under the sponsorship of private institutions, some
on the basis of bilateral or multi-lateral arrangements
between governments, have multiplied in recent years.
But the struggle against sectionalism borne of prejudice
and ignorance is not finally won. Because it is largely in
the mind and heart that its foundations are embedded,
and it is here where it is hardest to dislodge. It continues
to wield its retrogressive influence against general coop-
erative effort in the field of education and the general
pursuit of truth, in many parts of the world. It is my
hope, and I feel that you share this hope with me, t ~ a t
inter-racial cooperative efforts such as now obtain be-
tween Filipino mentors and predominantly American
students in the University of the Philippines at Clark be,
like the landmark decisions of the American Supreme
.Court, another irreversible -step toward- universality in
education and. the quest for truth.
Another indispensable premise for the proper pursuit
of knowledge is academic freedom. By this is meant that
the members of the academic community, the teachers as
well as the researchers, and even students, shall have
maximum freedom to confront ideas and principles, to
examine them, question them, to reformulate them as they
are guided by discoveries and new insights. In the phrase
of that great Greek philosopher Socrates, they must be
allowed to follow the argument wherever it may lead. In
the discharge of these responsibilities, which are peculiarly
theirs by virtue of their membership in the community
of scholars, they must not be subjected to the restraint of
prior censorship nor to the fear of subsequent punish-
ment ..
The essentiality of freedom to those who are engaged
in the pursuit of learning has been early recognized.
The members of voluntary corporations established in
Salerno and Bologna for the dissemination of knowledge-
these were the precursors of modern day universities-
were generally left to their pursuits without interference
from the dominant ecclesiastical powers or the emerging
civil administrations. Through the history of its existence,
however, this wise course has not always been followed
by those who have variously held power in different social
settings and it is recorded that members of the intellectual
community have at different times, been subjected either
to persecution, .or the subtle seductions of power in order
to. make them adjuncts of either Church or State.. But
when these tactics were successful, it has been the societies
which had withheld immunity for novel and unorthodox
thought that have suffered in the long run.
For, the institutional value of a free community of
. scholars can not _be over-emphasized. It is virtually syno-
nymous with survival. The American Supreme Court
articulated its rationale in the classic case of Sweezy v.
State of New Hampshire:
To impose any strait jacket upon the intellectual
leaders in our colleges and universities would imperil
the future of our nation. No field of education is
so thoroughly comprehended by man that new dis-
coveries can not be made. Particularly is that true
in the social sciences, where few, if any, principles
are accepted as absolutes. Scholarships can not flourish
in an atmosphere of suspicion and distrust. Teachers
and students must always remain free to inquire,
to study and to evaluate, to gain new maturity and
understanding; otherwise, our civilization will stag-
nate and die.
As previously intimated, the tentativeness of the work-
ing principles in the social sciences, especially requires
greater leeway in the consideration and formulation of
unfamiliar propositions. Here the entire world is the
laboratory, and all members of the human community
are the subjects of the intellectual exploration. Mr. Justice
Frankfurter, in the same case of Sweezy v. State of New
Hampshire, calls attention to the fact that "(T) he prob-
lems that the respective preoccupations of anthropology,
economics, law, psychology, sociology and related areas of
scholarship are merely departmentalized dealings, by way
of manageable divisions of analysis, with interpenetrating
aspects of holistic perplexities."
One cannot but agree with him that "for societies
good . . ., inquiries into these problems, speculations
106 U:P. GAZETTE VOL. V, NO.6
about" them, "stimulations in others of reflections about
them, must be left as unfettered as possible."
Beyond the question of survival and development of
any particular institution or civilization, the University
is also confronted with the more fundamental considera-
tions of the quslity of human existence and the ultimate
survival of man.
The species homo sapiens has travelled and evolved
through lonely millions of years to arrive at its present
form and state. Among all living organisms that inhabit
the earth, it is only this species that has acquired the
condition of sentiency. Julian Huxley tells us that "It is
only through possessing a mind that he has become the
dominant portion of this planet and the agent responsible
for its future evolution." But, he warns that Hit is only
hy the right use of the mind that he will he able to
exercise that responsibility rightly."
When ODe surveys the terrain, one is led to wonder
whether Man is capable of using this remarkahle gift of
mind not only for the enrichment of his existence but also
to assure his survival.
Ours is an age of technological and scientific miracles-
a testimony of the genius of Man. We have explored the
vastness of space and fathomed the ocean beds. We have
discovered new and ingenuous methods of transforming
and utilizing resources which nature has made available
to us.
Yet ours are also days of doubt and confusion. Man,
for all his genius, continues, through his actions, to seem-
ingly choose extinction. The Malthusian spectre of over-
population in the face of increasingly rarer resources
is no longer just a theorist's nightmare. The production
of weapons of cosmic destruction continues at alarming
pace. We contaminate and pollute the atmosphere and
render large areas of productive earth into empty and
desolate wastelands in a mad dash for industrialization
and more profits. The pessimism that has ensued from
them has bred an assortment of nihilistic philosophies
whose apostles blare messages of destruction and despair.
What is the university's role relative to these problems?
The university is the center of thought in society. It is an
assemblage of persons whose principal occupation .and
responsibility are, not only to advance ever more sophis-
ticated hypotheses and theorems in the world of science,
but also to recognize fundamental human problems, and
to provide adequate solutions for them. Because it is this,
it must act as social critic and conscience of the com-
munity. It must assume moral leadership to assert ra-
tionality and a new philosophy of hope for all mankind.
For as Julian Huxley states his formula for survival:
[Man] shall only succeed if he faces [his responsi-
bility] consciously and if he uses all his mental
resources-knowledge and reason, imagination and
sensitivity, capacities for wonder and for love, for
comprehension and compassion, for spiritual aspira-
tion and moral effort.
Whether one pursues the intricate labyrinths of philo.
sophy, or explores the wonders of the universe through
the study of the natural sciences, or creates beauty
through the arts, or captures the intensity of human
experience through poetry, it must always be with full
awareness of this responsibility.
Let all those who pass through the halls of the Univer-
sity take a pledge to assume it-without fear and without
reservations. The historic obstacles to free inquiry and
therefore to richer civilization and survival will be with
us for some time.
With courage, with faith in ourselves and the indu-
bitahle liberating force of truth, we will in the end say
with Faulkner that we shali prevail.

Revised Rulee for the J.M. Feliciano Scholarship Awards
The Jose Ma. Feliciano Scholarship Awards are given
to needy but deserving students who are B.S. in Geology
and/or B.S. (Geography) majors who have completed
at least twelve (12) units of course work in their major
fields and/or in the third year.
A student majoring in Geology or Geography to be
considered for an award must have passed all his courses
in the semester immediately preceding the giving of the
award. The academic load must not be less than fifteen
(15) units and the weighted average not less than 2.5.
In addition, the student must be of good moral character
and integrity.
Each award is given for one semester at a time without
prejudice to renewal provided the conditions earlier set
forth are met. The amount to be given varies but at all
times it will be adequate to cover tuition fees for a
semester and a little extra for school supplies.
Select-ion of the awardees rests on an appropriate com-
mittee elected from among the faculty members of the
Department. Two committees are generally set up:
one for the geology section and the other for the gee-
graphy section.
The Board accepted a grant of P682,200.00 from the
National Manpower and Youth Council (NMYC) to enable
the Institute of Social Work and Community Develop-
ment to undertake a study on the program and service
for out-of-school youths in the country and to develop
a vocational preparation program for them. In addition

for this study, the University "ill provide the research
facilities, and recruit and appoint the technical staff.
The Board approved the revision of Rule 2 c (2) of the
rules governing the U.P.-Government Scholarships, as fol-
lows:
Rule 2 c (2)-

scribed and sworn to before any appropriate officer

The Board confirmed acceptance of a subsidy from the
PhiHppine Coconut Authority (PHILCOA) in the amount
of P20,OOO.OO to supplement the initial grant given to the
College of Home Economics for the research project
"Determination of Expanded Commercial Application of
Coconut By-Products." In this connection, the Board ap-
proved the provisions and conditions of the subsidy
scheme, as outlined in the Memorandum of the Assistant
Administrator for Operations of PHILCOA.
The Board confirmed acceptance of the following grants
in the University of the Philippines at Los Banos:
a. From the Centro Internacional de Me;oramiento de
Maizy Trigo (CIMMYT)-a grant of US $28,000.00
for the first two years of the research project
entitled "High Quality Protein Corn Integrated
Program for the Philippines." An initial amount to-
ward this grant ($20,000.00) has been remitted by
the CIMMYT under FNCB Check No. 4367 dated

98902 and 98003, both dated 27 June 1974.
The Board confirmed acceptance of a grant to the
College of Agriculture, University of the Philippines at
Los Banos from the Philippine Sugar Institute (PHIL
SUGIN) in the amount of P232,200.00, as a continuing
support for the Sugar Technology Course during the
fiscal year 1974-1975 (the amount has been remitted to
UPLB under PNB Check No. 99136 dated 9 July 1974).
PROFESSORIAL CHAIRS
The Board approved the appointment of Obdulia F.
Sison as Professor of Agricultural Education (profes-
sorial chair), College of Agriculture, University of the
Philippines at Los Bafios, effective July 1, 1974 until
June 30, 1975.
The Board also approved the creation of four (4) addi-
tional professorial chairs in Philosophy, Linguistics, Hu-
manities, and Sociology, at the College of Arts and

Appointment to each of the above chairs is subject to
the condition that the holder shall be expected to deliver
an inaugural lecture within a year after his appoint-
ment, and a lecture every year thereafter for the duration
of his appointment on a subject of his choice, in the field
of his competence (per resolution of the Board at its
838th meeting on 25 October 1973).
COLLECTION OF FEES
The Board approved the increase in the laboratory fee
in the Child Development Center of the College of
Home Economics from P200.00 to f800.00 per semester,
effective the second semester, academic year 19"74-19'75.
The present laboratory fee of P200,OO is no longer ade-
quate to support the Center's activities in view of the
high costs of operation.
PRESIDENTIAL AUTHORITY TO SHIFT FUNDS
The Board approved the renewal of the authority of the
President to shift funds to any item beyond that author-
ized in Article 298 of the Revised University Code, but
not exceeding 30%, subject to the approval of the
Finance Committee. This authority is valid for one year,
effective August 7, 1974, unless renewed for a similar
period.
PRESIDENTIAL AUTHORITY TO DISBURSE U.P.
WOMAN'S CLUB FUNDS
The Board authorized the President, upon recommenda-
tion of the Associated women's League (a caretaker
organization for the suspended U.P. Woman's Club)
through the Dean of Students, to disburse the D.P.
Woman's Club funds for student welfare projects spon-
sored by the League, subject to per tin ant accounting and
auditing regulations. This arrangement is similar to the
authorization granted the President to disburse Student
Council funds for student welfare projects (841st meeting,
Board of Regents, 31 January 1974).
The authorization is deemed necessary in view of the
suspension of student activities and the continued collec-
tion by the University of miscellaneous student fees for
specific purposes.
ABOLITION OF CENTER FOR INTERNATIONAL
STUDIES (CIS)
The Board approved the abolition of the Center for
International Studies (CIS) created at its 818th meeting
on 23 March 19'72.
The action was taken in order to avoid duplication of
functions between the CIS and the Philippine Center for
Advanced Studies (PCAS) which was created under
Presidential Decree No. 342 on 22 November 1973 as an
autonomous unit. The main function of the CIS, which is
to conduct studies in depth of problems of Philippine
foreign policy and international relations, is one of the
integral functions of the peAS.
TEMPORARY TRANSFER OF SUPERVISION AND
CONTROL OF DIVISION OF COUNSELING AND
GUIDANCE
The Board approved the temporary transfer of the
supervision and control of the Division of Counseling and
Guidance from the Office of Student Affairs to the Office
of the Vice-President for Academic Affairs.
WARNING REGARDING BUDGETARY REQUESTS
The Board warned all units that budgetary requests
court in the future the risk of disapproval unless sub-
mitted to the Board ahead of the program schedule for
which they are intended.
PRESIDENTIAL APPOINTMENTS
The President approved the following appointments:
Teresita Acevedo as Officer-in-Charge, Department of
Food Science and Nutrition, College of Home Econ-
omics effective July 19, 1974 until September 15,
,
1974.
Francisca L. Erece as Officer-in-Charge, University of
the Philippines at Bagnio, High School, effective
July 1, 1974 until May 31, 1975.
Antonio Gonzaga as Officer-in-Charge, Department of
Laboratories, Philippine General Hospital, effective
July 1, 19"74 until June 30, 1975.
Natividad Santos as Officer-in-Charge, Department of
Reading, College of Education, effective July I, 1974
until June 30, 1975.

TO
RUFINO TAMAYO
Artist, Mexican, World Citizen
GREETINGS
For a distinguished body of art work numbering hun-
dreds of canvasses, prints and drawings, and several
murals, which are among the most eloquent and most
brilliant of our time, suggesting a sensibility and a skill
rare in their capabilities;
For the unique achievement of having integrated in
these works a distinctly Mexican view of the world
with the most advanced and significant artistic move-
ments in Europe, thus sharing with the peoples of the
world works that are both nationally derived and universal
in their appeal, thus affirming the international charac-
ter of great art;
For the independence, the courage and the consistency
of his vision in his refusal to subordinate his view of
man, society and art to what was popular and fashionable
and for striking out along routes yet largely unexplored
in Mexican painting; and
For his many distinguished years of service to the
enhancement and preservation of indigenous Mexican
art particularly that which belonged to its pre-Hispanic
The implication of my topic is that we are faced with
the problem of human survival and so we need a philosophy
or intellectual approach to help resolve it for humanity,
Even if the conditions have not so deteriorated as to
make the problem of man's survival immediately pressing,
the signs constitute fair warning that something is amiss
with man's condition and that therefore a close examina-
tion of the human situation is in order, It is not fair
for us or for our children to muddle through the ob-
viously complex situation, Since the present critical con-
dition of humanity is traceable ultimately to man himself,
man should be able to extricate himself and his posterity
from it through planned and concerted action.
Every educated man knows that human civilization has
been made possible through man's gift-not present in
any other animal species-for symboling or the ability to
use symbols, Leslie White defines a symbol as any "thing
the value or meaning of which is bestowed upon it by those
who use it." Articulate speech is cited as the most im-
portant form of symbolic expression-of which only man,
among the various animal species, is capable. Because
of this gift for articulate speech, man was able to pre-
serve a record or history of what happened to him pre-
viously and so he could learn from past mistakes and
improve on his achievements,
past, the understanding of which has deepened world
appreciation of Mexican life and culture;
The Board of Regents of the University of the Philip-
pines, by unanimous vote of its members and upon the
recommendation of the Acting President of the University
and the Committee on Honorary Degrees, today confers
upon you the degree of
DOCTOR OF HUMANITIES
(Honoris Causa)
with all the honors, rights and privileges as well as the
obligations and responsibilities thereunto appertaining,
In testimony whereof this diploma and these vestments
of distinction, indicative of the highest rank of honor
in the University of the Philippines, are hereby presented
to you on this sixth day of July in the year of Our Lord
the One Thousand Nine Hundred and Seventy-Fourth,
of the Republic of the Philippines the Twenty-Ninth,
and of the University of the Philippines the Sixty-Seventh.

Tho evolution of human culture from the primitive and
simple to the modern and complex, has been possible
through man's discovery, over the long millennia of his
existence, of increased work efficiency through economical
use of energy. Through the use of increasingly sophistica-
ted symbolic language like mathematics-over the long
stages of cultural development from the hunting and food
gathering, to the agricultural, and finally to the industrial-
scientific-he discovered that progress and development
is faster if the energy utilized for the production of food
and other commodi ties and services is expended econom-
ically, with the least wastage, He has discovered through
the centuries that manual energy is wasteful, and that
a cultural system that depends only on manual energy
cannot hope to progress much.
Man therefore was forced to look for other and more
economical sources of energy. He domesticated wild ani-
mals to help him to do his heavy work; he invented the
animal-drawn vehicle on wheels to replace the sled; he
husbanded the waterfalls and swift rivers for hydro-
electric power; he invented the windmill and the steam en-
gine; he discovered electricity and rich deposits of coal
and oil underneath the earth's surface. These other sources
of energy certainly were less wasteful and contributed
to more efficiency than mere manual energy. Although
116
U.P: GAZETTE
VOL. V, No.7
nuclear energy is still very expensive and direct harnessing
of energy from the sun to provide for man's needs cheaply
still is some way off, inexpensive use of these energy
sources will come in due course and contribute furtber to
human progress.
The technology that has come with modern industry
is based on mathematical physics and has wrought great
changes in the life of man through mass production of
goods and services. The most modern technical know-
how has brought material prosperity to nations of vast
natural resources as well as to nations of inadequate
natural resources but of great engineering and skilled
manpower resources. The United States and the Soviet
Union are of the first category, while Japan and the
United Kingdom belong to the second category. An
excellent example of a country built mainly by modern
technology is Israel. A flourishing state of contented, self-
reliant, and forward-looking citizens was carved out of the
desert sands and rocks of the eastern hinterlands of the
Mediterranean-by modern technology. And there is no
doubt that, given the chance, the oil-rich arid Arab lands
could likewise be transformed into prosperous countries
with the aid of technocrats and technologists of all kinds.
Unfortunately, however, prosperity has also brought
with it all kinds of ills-social, political, educational,
economic, industrial--even spiritual. The extent and num-
ber of these ills are proof of what some would describe
as dubious blessings of modern technology. Some scientists
have actually warned that unless it is reduced, economic
growth might lead to depletion of natural resources and
pollution of the human environment and end in wide-
spread starvation and ecological calamity. I am referring
to the study, The Limits to Growth, undertaken by a
team of scientists at the Massachusetts Institute of
Technology under the sponsorship of the Club of Rome
and published two years ago in 1972. A controversial
study, nevertheless it has merited the serious attention
of natural scientists, social scientists, and humanities
students all over the civilized world.
The problem that this study poses is human survival.
With the depletion of the natural resources of the earth
and the pollution of the environment as a result of un-
bridled economic growth, the inevitable outcome is disaster
for mankind. To obviate this catastrophe, what should
we do? Their answer is to stop both economic and
population growth at present levels. Being a computer-
based study, the complex world problem is reduced to a
simplified world model (the study defines a model as
"simply an ordered set of assumptions about a complex
system") and the solution arrived at is also simplified-
zero economic and zero population growth. But we need
not be reminded that human problems being complex,
it is not so easy- even with the aid of the computer-
to isolate and define them and fiad ready solutions to
them. There are such things as intangible values that
somehow affect one way or another the course of human
conduct. Some thoughtful and perceptive rejoinders to
both the statement of the problem through a world model
and the solution offered have been made by equally per-
ceptive and thoughtful scientists and scholars.
While I do not accept the "doomsday" undertones of the
Limits to' Growth study, it would be sheer irresponsibility,
I think, to ignore the ills that have been brought by man's
highly technological industrialization. And while as a
humanities man I also have recognized the great value
of science and technology to human civilization, I also fear
that fanatical and conscienceless scientism could bring
pointless and unnecessary disaster upon humanity.
Happily for humanity, even the countries with the
most advanced technology have shown some basic sanity
in international relations. Some would attribute this to
the "balance of terror" theory, namely, that world peace
can be maintained by balancing a certain degree of terror
with an equal degree of terror. I would attribute it to
the essential concern of civilized man--even if sometimes
he tends to be aggressive and warlike-for the well-being
of his fellowmen. This was shown as an aftermath of the
fiasco that attended the American invasion of the Bay
of Pigs in Cuba over a decade ago and the subsequent
installation of nuclear missile sites in Cuba by the Soviet
Union. A nuclear arms confrontation between the United
States and the Soviet Union followed and could have been
catastrophic for modern civilization. The agreement be-
tween the two superpowers to establish a "hctline"
between Moscow and Washington and thus prevent instant
global catastrophe, was indicative of man's basic humanity.
A philosophy for human survival which should also in-
clude human fulfillment should recognize the essentiality
of science and technology to human progress and the
necessity for the humanistic values for the enhancement
of human well-being or the quality of life. Human survival
and human fulfillment can be attained more effectively
with the collaborative effort of both the sciences and the
humanities. The sciences are amoral and the problem
of human survival includes more than physical survival,
which means the involvement of non-material values.
The humanities cannot be understood and appreciated
properly without the help of the scientific disciplines,
which are basic to the enhancement of human life.
Scientific culture by itself can be self-destructive and
humanistic culture by itself can be empty and can he-
come retrograde. Overemphasis of the dichotomy between
scientific culture and humanistic or literary culture can
be harmful to human civilization. Collaboration not con-
frontation between the two cultures is desirable. These
may sound dogmatic statements, but the experience of
mankind in its recent history has proven them true.
What I am trying to outline as a philosophy for human
survival and human fulfillment is a broad attitude or way
of life, not a rigid system or school of philosophical
thought. It encompasses but also transcends the problems
posed by capitalism versus communism, Right versus
Left, integration versus segregation, apartheid versus
amalgamation. It demands a change in values because
of the changed circumstances brought about by modern
science and technology. Values of traditional culture
correspondingly have to be revised to harmonize with
modern living.
I would like to look at this philosophy as a kind of mo-
dern humanism that stresses the positive human values
and although it disagrees with many dogmatisms of or-
ganized religion, will not go to the extent of denouncing
them. It affirms what is positive; it will seek areas of
agreement with other philosophical systems and promote
cooperation in these areas. There are many schools of hu-
manism-the scientific, the ethical, the rationalist, the eo-

JULY 31, 1974 D.P. GAZETTE 117

tivist, the existentialist, the marxist, and the humanism


of the various philosophic schools within naturalism. The
humanism I am proposing for human survival and hu-
man fulfillment will not identify itself with any of them;
it will however seek points of similarity, which are many,
and promote international understanding and action on
them. It may possibly be called modern eclectic humanism.
Humanism in general, as you know very well, is cen-
tered on human interests and values, and as "a philosophy
it asserts the dignity and worth of mall and his capacity
for self-realization through reason and... often rejects
supernaturalism." International ethical and scientific hu-
manism rejects organized or institutional religion, and
may have reason to do so, because organized religion
has been divisive; it has contributed to the division
instead of to the unification of mankind. We are aware
of the prolonged strife between two denominations of
Christianity in Northern Ireland and of what has been
happening over the last quarter century between Jews
and Muslims in West Asia and North Africa. Organized
religion, moreover, has not been in the forefront of
progress and enlightenment. As an alternative, ethical
and scientific humanism rejects institutional religion, not
wanting organized religion to be the main proponent of
organized ignorance as it was during the Middle Ages
and even in the Early Renaissance, as illustrated in the
case of Galileo Galilei, who was heavily censured by the
Vatican for asserting a scientific truth.
The Humanism I have in mind, although it affirms the
centrality of the human values desirable this side of the
grave, does not reject the consolations of religion. Reli-
gion is necessary, as a kind of refuge, for the weak of
will and of intellect; and the humanist would do well to
recognize the importance of social stability through peace
of mind of the mass of humanity, for the attainment of
human fulfillment. Of course religious values will be
only ancillary to the humanistic values, and religion can
only be secondary in importance in the life of interna-
tional humanism. Humanism is concerned properly with
life in this terrestrial world; it does not rule out the
other kind of existence, but it leaves that as outside its
concern, and properly the concern of the individual hu-
manist. However, it will not encourage the humanist to
concern himself more with the matter of life the other
side of the grave than this side. By doing so the hu-
manist will have abandoned humanism and embraced
religious obscurantism.
It is obvious that leadership roles in the global
movement for human survival are not for sectarian reli-
gious fanatics, hardline fascists, doctrinaire communists,
chauvinistic nationalists, incorrigible segregationists, ra-
cists and extremists of all kinds. They would sow dissen-
sion '. and disorder to the detriment of the humanist
movement and for the 'furtherance of their special in-
terests. The ecumenical movement started by' John XXIII,
definitely the great pope in modern times, is a - worthy
effort at encouraging inter-denominational understanding
and friendship through dialogue; but it seems b.e c.on-
fined only to the various denominations of
If the leaders of the great world organized religions can-
not get together to consider ways and .to promote
frielldship among their communions, they wIll. always be

an impe rmen
Several years ago, I met a Burmese Buddhist professor
visiting at the University of Chicago who made the charge
in a graduate seminar, that Christians are the most
warlike people in modern times, having brought about
the last two world wars and other minor ones before
and after. I suppose the good professor would have to
admit now that the Muslims and the Jews are also war-
like, and the Buddhists, too, but perhaps to a lesser de-
gree. And like most men. of peace and goodwill, he
would not be happy about the proposed establishment
of a World Development Bank capitalized by the oil-
rich Muslim countries but intended for the development
only of Muslim peoples. This would be a form of warfare
against non-Muslim nations, a more sinister development
than Christians fighting against Christians as in North-
ern Ireland.
In striving for human survival and also for human
fulfillment in a world that has striven more for the
material comforts of existence rather than quality of life,
in a world whose industrial wastes have caused wide-
spread pollution of the social and physical environment
-the air, the rivers, lakes, seas, and eventually the
oceans-contemporary man should use only corrective
measures that are scientific and humane, non-violent,
democratic, respectful of the dignity of the human person,
and non-violative of the fundamental rights of man.
As I have said earlier, what I am proposing is a
broad philosophy or way of life, not a formula or blue-
print based on a computerized model. It may not be ac-
ceptable as scientific by technocrats and technologists. I
offer it just the same, in all humility, for what it may
be worth. It is the result of a long and careful study
by a person whose basic interests have been in the
humanities but who has a high respect for science and
scientists. The way of life I am offering as a solution
to the problem of human survival may be described in a
series of related statements. These are:
It is democratic. Whatever be its shortcomings demo-
cracy is still the most desirable form of social and political
ordering. It derives its authority from the people, from
whom all authority emanates. Directorship and authori-
tarianism are violative of human freedom and dignity and
are not an end to be wished for.
It is science based. A way of life that is worthy of
preservation should be based on science whose truths are
publicly verifiable; not on dogmatisms which are supposed
to emanate from an unseen authority. Science which has
brought about modern technology is the source of un-
precedented progress of the modern world during the
last two centuries. Science expands human knowledge
and an expanded human knowledge should contribute

WHAT MAKES THE U.P. RUN
(Opening Remarks at the opening plenary session of the Management Development Conference of
Deans, Directors and College Secretortee, Pines Hotel, Baguio City, 26 July 197.4)
By SALVADOR P. LoPEZ
President, University of the Philippines
International agencies like those of the United Nations
could be of help in these matters, to promote peace with
justice.
It is guided by the principle of social responsibility.
While the freedom of the individual person should he re-
spected as inviolable, his social responsibility is likewise
a principle by which he should bind himself. Sociality or
relatedness to fellowmen for social cooperation in the
attainment of individual and social goals is to be en-
couraged.
It shall offer a variety of choices. It disapproves of a
closed society and encourages the development of an open
and pluralistic society. Pluralism is preferable to monism
in social organization. Equality of opportunity for personal
advancement is a principle that can be implemented most
effectively in open and pluralistic societies.
It advocates development of the undeveloped and under-
developed areas of the world with a minimum of the ills
that follow in the wake of imperialist exploitation and
industrial pollution. These undeveloped and underdeveloped
areas deserve to be brought up to the level of the more
developed states. Human fulfillment cannot be attained
if there is great inequality in the distribution of wealth
among nations and peoples.
It is committed to a policy of conservation of the
natural resources of the earth and to the most economical
use of energy, so that work efficiency can be maintained
at a high level with the least wastage of energy resources.
It is also committed to a policy of controlled population
growth, particularly in areas where economic growth has
not kept pace with population growth. The desirable end
is the spreading of the wealth, and not the spreading of
poverty. Dense populations in barren unproductive areas
The institution of which we are all a part-the Univer-
sity of the Philippines System-is of a size, diversity and
complexity unequalled by any other institution in this
country, whether private or public. The purposes for
which it exists are unique and special, and the demands
made upon it by the rest of the national community are
more varied and sustained than they have been in the
past.
As of last count, in May this year, this institution had
18,768 students on the collegiate level, of which 15,464
were undergraduate and 3,304 graduate students. There
were 3,071 pre-collegiate students, bringing the total to
21,839. Our collegiate students were distributed among
42 academic units located in the main campus in Diliman
and in the other campuses in Manila, Los Banos, Baguio,
Clark Air Base, Iloilo, Cebu and 'I'acloban. Our academic
personnel, both teaching and non-teaching numbered 4,068,
and their specializntion varied as widely as art history
and zoology, linguistics and nuclear physics. The support-
ing administrative staff for this already formidable com-
munity of teachers and learners, scholars and specialists
was made up of 5,721 persons. This massive enterprise
are to be discouraged.
It is committed, as a way of life, to the fostering of
understanding among all men through the appreciation
of human values that all or most civilized men could share
together in common; endorsement of values that we can
believe in, and tolerance for those that we cannot share.
No human problem, no matter how complex and difficult
it may seem, is insolvable. Tbe problems posed by over-
population in undeveloped areas and by industrial pollution
in developed areas are generated by people themselves.
Man owes it to himself and to his posterity to solve these
man-made problems. The way of life outlined here should
go a long way toward enabling man to tide over difficul-
ties toward better times and develop his faculties more
fully in fulfillment of his functions and desire as a human
being and as a member of the human community, both
national and international. When man has attained con-
tentment in his personal life and has developed har-
monious relations with his fellowmen, he shall have con-
tributed enough to the solution of the problem of human
survival and even of human fulfillment.
If we have enough faith in man's inherent wisdom as
developed through long and varied experience over the
ages, in his ability to correct his errors and improve his
performance through his gift for the use of symbolic
language and articulate speech, in his capacity for su-
preme creativity particularly in times of crisis, then we
can hope for a better and more livable world, not per-
haps in the present and next decade, but in the decades
that will come after. We need not fear warnings of dooms-
day or of a Twilight of the Gods. There is reason to
expect not human survival merely, but human fulfillment
as well.
operated on a woefully inadequate budget of P60,OOO,OOO.OO.
These figures do not tell the entire story, for the scope
and diversity of our activities cannot be fully reflected
in figures. Unlike private corporations, our product is not
as tangible as soap or rubber shoes, nor do we render
a single service or a few related services. We do not have
a pre-determined rate of profit against which we may
measure the success of our efforts. Neither do we have
a small, limited clientele to whom we can turn for an
assessment of how well we have performed our tasks.
The basic problem, therefore, arises from the special
character of the University. Ours is an institution of
learning engaged in the three-fold, complementary tasks
of instruction, research and community service. These
day-to-day tasks arc our tactical purposes which should
eventually lead us to the realization of our ultimate stra-
tegic goal, namely, to help bring about fundamental social
change in. our society in keeping with our role as the
University of the people.
The nature and thrust of. our instruction, research and
community service is thought by many to be still a matter
of debate. Such a situation cannot. he helped in an aca-

demic community used to making fine distinctions and
asking many questions. It remains to be seen whether our
policies in this regard will finally reflect the will and
aspirations of our people. Meanwhile, we can perhaps
agree that the immediate tasks of instruction, research
and community service must be accomplished as efficiently
as possible with a minimum of indecision, confusion and
waste.
In an organization that is OTIe of the largest and
structurally the most complex in the nation, and which
is furthermore radically different from any other, it is
imperative to remember that we have the capability and
opportunity to influence not only the intellectual life of
the nation but the very policies that will determine the
shape of our society. Given the University's incalculable
potential for good or evil, it becomes equally imperative,
first, that the goals of this institution be carefully iden-
tified and defined and, secondly, that we have the skill
and the will to pursue and realize these goals as efficiently
as possible.
Now, it is true that in both these domains, the Univer-
sity cannot be said to be completely autonomous. This
being a tax-supported University.. the State does claim the
right and authority to determine its purposes and objec-
tives and to set down the basic rules by which these are
to be achieved. This prerogative is, in present circum-
stances, being exercised more energetically than at any
time in the past. Yet, so strongly entrenched has been
the principle and tradition of U.P. autonomy that even
under the regime of martial law, \.... e in the University
arc not precluded from indicating our views and taking
a stand as regards both the teleology and the mechanism
of this vast, little universe that is the University of the
Philippines.
Indeed, we have already held various seminars and
conferences on the purposes and goals of the University.
At this conference, however, we are going to deal with
matters less philosophical and esoteric, more pragmatic
and practical, that is with the day-to-day problems of
running the University and administering its affairs.
This, in short, is a conference of the management of
University.
The U.P. has the largest pool of experts in almost any
field that you can name. Push a button, as on a Vendo
machine, and you can get a consultant or several con-
sultants on any subject you want. These experts: always
available on loan, full-time or part-time, preferably with
an interesting emolument euphemistically called an hon-
orarium, are forever being asked to tell or show other
government agencies or private enterprises how to run
their business and manage their affairs more efficiently
and profitably. I would guess that more than half our
University units-the Colleges of Business Administra-
tion and Public Administration, the School of Economics,
the Institute of Planning, the Local Government Center,
the Philippine Executive Academy, the Law Center, to
name only a few-as well as a good half of our faculty
members, arc involved in this type of consultancy. Indeed
I am beginning to suspect that we have been so busy
telling other people how to run their business that we
have had no time to show ourselves how to do likewise.
Like sugar or bananas, we have been exporting so much
expertise on management that we seem to have very little
left for home consumption.
(Parenthetically, I might add, that this is true in other
fields as well. For instance, we have in the College of Law
and the Law Center some of the best lawyers in the land.
yet we cannot get enough legal help to defend the
sity against the writs of injunctions periodically issued
by Judge Jose Campos. And while the Law Center is
codifying all the laws of the land, it cannot even help us
to codify our own.)
So, this week-end, in this salubrious climate and relaxed
atmosphere of Baguio, we are going at long last to have
a good look at the loose-jointed and somewhat creaky
machinery of the U.P. System. Let's compare notes,
study the text of relevant laws and regulations, let's listen
to the experts and learn from them. But, above all, let's
learn from one another. It goes without saying that a
certain humility is an essential prerequisite for this under-
taking, a willingness to learn, even perhaps a readiness
to admit shortcomings or errors. After all, nobody is a
horn administrator or manager; this is an acquired skill.
I imagine that most of our discussions wiII be devoted
to the art and science of running the University and its
various units according to the book. I would suggest that,
having done this, we try to go beyond the rules in the
book and consider how the University and its units can
be administered more efficiently and enabled to perform
their three-fold task of teaching, research and community
service, by changing the rules if necessary. You would
agree that this is a method much to be preferred to the
sometimes unavoidable but always hazardous remedy of
bending the rules slightly without breaking them, or
cunningly going around the regulations in the hope that
the auditor is not looking or is looking the other way.
You and I are partners in the business of running the
University. The daily chores involved are often so tiresome
and time-consuming that I sometimes dream of some kind
of super-computer that can be installed in Quezon Hall
with buttons, that I could push to turn on the University
System so that it would run by itself like an automated
factory, and we could playa round of golf every day.
But one thing I have learned in the last six years is that
there is nothing in the world more utterly unlike a factory
or a machine than this University. There are 50-odd deans
and directors in the U.P., and so we have fifty styles of
management and administration in the System, not to
mention another half-dozen styles right in Quezon Hall
l tself-c-each of them uniquely personal and individual and
all of them fascinatingly different from one another.
It is however the purpose of this Conference to indicate
how we can conduct the business of the University more
efficiently with better teamwork, like the D.P. football team
under a good coach or make more harmonious music to-
gether, like the D.P. Concert ChOlUS under the direction of
Prof. Rey Pagulo. For my part, I promise to study just as
hard as you. For nobody is a born coach or conductor,
either. These skills are also acquired.

PORTRAIT OF AN ACADEMIC
ADMINISTRATOR
By ABELARDO G. SAl\'IONTE
Chancellor, V.P. at LOB BaiLos
Development Conference of U.P. Deans, Directors,
Hotel, Baguio City, 28 July 1974)
VOL. V, NO.7
and College Seeretariee, Pines
This three-day conference, to me, has been very fruitful.
I trust that yon have found it equally so. We owe a vote
of thanks to President Salvador P. Lopez for giving his full
support and encouragement to this endeavor. Not only has
he approved the holding of this conference which is a
"first" in U.P.'s history; he has also actively participated
in all the plenary and work group sessions-another "first"
for a U.P. President. Similarly, one of the most senior
members of the Board of Regents, Dean Tomas S. Fona-
cier has been with us throughout the conference. Of
course, we have not failed to notice the charming and
inspiring presence of Mrs. Maria Luna Lopez and a
number of the administrators' wives.
To the Management Education Council, paper writers
and other speakers, our congratulations for a job well
done. It has been observed that many U.P. colleges and
institutes have long been training executives and managers
from other agencies, but have neglected the homefront.
I hope that this initial effort of the Council to promote
management development among our own college and
university administrators will be continued and even ex-
panded.
For the importance of the management development of
deans, directors, and college secretaries cannot be over-
emphasized. Most of us started our careers as specialists
in our respective disciplines or professions. When we later
assumed supervisory or management responsibilities, we
had to perform the functions of a generalist. How do we
distinguish a generalist from a specialist? A specialist is
one who knows more and more about less and less;
while a generalist is one who knows less and less about
more and more. As generalist administrators, we have
to broaden and be familiar with a wide variety of things-
from custodial service to academic planning, from the
mundane to the sublime.
I need not repeat the many ideas and recommendations
that we discussed in the last three days. This has been
done by the work group reports. I would like, at this time,
to place this conference in larger perspective. Our activ-
ities in the last three days should be considered as a part
of our self-development as managers. Indeed, one of the
basic premises of executive development is that the de-
velopment of an administrator or manager is self-moti-
vnted and self-realized. It goes back to the Socratic adage:
"Know thyself." And in seminars or conferences such as
this, we get together with fellow administrators who
could serve as mirrors in our individual effort to know
more of our respective selves. In other words, as prac-
tising academic administrators, we were not convened here
primarily to be taught by management specialists. We
came here to learn from each other. And after three days
of hard work, I hope we understand ourselves better.
Executive development, moreover, is a continuing proc-
ess; we learn from various situations, whether they be
formal seminars, informal group discussions, on-the-job
activities, or face-to-face contacts. Thus, after this man-
agement development conference, let us not think that
we now know all about the management process. Let us
rather consider our participation in this conference as the
end of a good beginning, as an experience that will mo-
tivate us to know more about the realities, intricacies and
requirements of management. Indeed, any administrator
who thinks that he has finished his management educa-
tion is finished but not educated.
In this conference, we concentrated on the five aspects
of the management process, namely: planning, organizing,
staffing, directing, and controlling. But we realize that,
in actual administrative life, management is a seamless
web, that these five management aspects are interacting
elements of a single, unified process. Many of our prob-
lems as administrators can not be categorized as merely
problems of planning, of staffing, of controlling, and so
forth. Thus, we need to adopt the systems approach in
analyzing our problems and in carrying on our tasks as
administrators.
There is today an "information explosion" in the man-
agement sciences. Regardless of our training and ex-
perience as college or university administrators, there is
much to know more about concepts and techniques of
managing a college or a university. We must be keenly
aware of the need to obtain adequate and timely manage-
ment information for sound decision-making. We have to
be familiar with the social, political, economic and tech-
nical environment of college or university administration
which should include an understanding of the dual struc-
tures of power in the University, namely: (a) the bureau-
cratic or executive, and (b) the collegial or professional.
And we need to recognize that our colleges, institutes,
or centers must be managed not only as integral parts of
the U.P. System, but also within the context of Philippine
society.
Knowledge and awareness, however, are not enough.
They must be complemented by proper attitudinal and
value orientation. Unfortunately, there is often a gap
between what one knows and how he behaves. For in-
stance, an administrator may know all about the latest
approaches to good interpersonal relations, but he may
fail miserably in actual practice. For no knowledge in the
head can make up for a lack of feeling in the heart.
What are the desirable attitudinal and value orientation
and the attributes that the academic administrator should
develop? Instead of presenting a long inventory of atti-
tudes and attributes, let me give a general portrait of a
good academic administrator in the Philippine setting.
First, he is development-oriented. Not only does he get
things done, but sees to it that these things are related
to the effective attainment of developmental goals. He is
purposive and positive in his thinking. While he considers
short-term needs and problems, he usually takes the long
view. He is creative and innovative, ceaselessly searching
for new ways to improve current programs and to trigger
further development.
Secondly, the good academic administrator appreciates
the value of theory and models, but is realistic and prag-

JULY 31, 1974 V.P. GAZETTE 121

matico He studies carefully the actual situation. He knows


how to balance the technical with the socio-political con-
siderations, how to temper aspirations with economic
realities. At the same time, he is resourceful; he believes
that resources beget more resources. Thus, he has mastered
the art of managing under conditions of scarcity and
uncertainty, striving to get the most out of available re-
sources while exploring sources of additional funds.
Thirdly, the good academic administrator is an effective
leader, sensitive and responsive to the needs of his organ-
ization. He has a genuine concern for the well-being of his
colleagues and constituents. He communicates and consults
with other members of his organization, and listens to their
views, complaints, and suggestions. He is open-minded and
considers all possible alternatives; yet he is decisive when
it is time to take action. He has integrity, and enjoys high
credibility because he is sincere and fair in his dealings
with his colleagues and subordinates alike. Hence, he
fosters mutual trust and confidence. At the same time,
he motivates and inspires each member of his unit to
develop his full potential, and thus contribute his best
to the organization.
Lastly, a good college administrator has overcome the
nat-rowing confines of parochialism and particularism.
While he zealously guards the interest of his college or
unit and strives to expand its progress and increase its
resources, he fully realizes that the development of his
unit must be closely geared to the overall development
of the University. He is also aware that the U.P. System
is part of the Philippine educational system which, in turn,
has a particular role in the development of the Nation.
Thus, he has a sense of mission; for he sees clearly the
link between the objectives of his unit and the larger
goals of the university and of the Nation. He has, there-
fore, a firm commitment to national welfare and develop-
ment. Consequently, while he possesses strong institutional
loyalty, he is able to subordinate his individual or unit
interest to the common and larger good.
This, my friends, is a general sketch of a good, effective
administrator in a Philippine university setting. Do you
find resemblance with your own portrait? Do you see
opportunities for developing these features? What are
the prospects of improving or refining your self-portrait
as an academic administrator? The answer is yours.
I earnestly hope that the response will be more affirmative
as you continue with renewed vigor to develop yourself.

M"emortHuhull Circular No. 27: Teaching A.ssistant!!
In response to inquiries received by this Office, the
role of Teaching Assistants (Graduate) is defined as
follows:
As stated in a related Memorandum dated March 29,
1974, the primacy of the teaching function among the
responsibilities of members of the faculty cannot be over-
emphasized. A faculty member may therefore avail of
the services of a teaching assistant to help him in the
performance of routine activities involved in the conduct
of a given class (e.g., recitation classes following lectures
given by the faculty members in charge, laboratory work,
correction of objective examination papers, computation
of grades, proctor duties, roll call, etc.). At the same
time, the teaching assistant is given an opportunity to
train as un understudy in teaching.
In the performance of these routine duties, the teach-
ing assistant shall remain under the close supervision of
the faculty member in charge of the class or course.
The assistant shall not at any time handle a course on
his own responsibility at any regular class/lecture ses-
sion, except when such occasional teaching as he may
undertake is part of the training of the teaching assist-
ant concerned. In no case shall teaching assistants direct-
ly participate in grading students, nor be authorized to
sign grade sheets.
These rules are intended to ensure a high degree of
professionalism in the University's basic function . of
teaching, while allowing sufficient leeway for the tram-

:Memorandum Circular No. 33: Appeal 01' Relief As-
sietancc to Flood Victims
In the spirit with which we responded to the appeal
for relief assistance during the 1972 calamity, I would
like once again to urge all members of the University
community - faculty, students, employees and residents
- to participate in the campaign to raise voluntary con-
tributions for the relief of our people who suffered from
the recent flood. I would appeal to all members of the
community to give as generously as they can, in cash or
in kind, or both.
D.P. students, under the leadership of the CONCOM-
SA and the Phil:ippine Collegian, have already launched
"Operasyon Tulong'" to help the flood victims of the
Greater Manila and Central Luzon areas. Certainly facul-
ty members, employees and other members of the Uni-
veraity community can do no less. A committee organized
in 1972 under the chairmanship of Vice-President Natha-
niel B. 'I'ablante will be in charge of this fund cam-
paign as well as the use and disposition of the fund.
Deans, directors, heads of offices and area leaders are
requested to organize a campaign in their respective units
or areas and to assume responsibility for collection and
remittance to the committee headed by Dr. 'I'ablante. All
donations in kind may be sent to the U.P. Woman's Club
building loealed behind Vinzons Hall.

FELLOWSHIPS, GIFTS AND
CREATION OF CLASS COMMUNITY RELATIONS
OFFICER
The Board approved the creation of class Community
Relations Officer (Ranges 9 and 10).
This position will be descriptive of the duties and
responsibilities of an officer in the Philippine Executive
Academy and other units of the University with similar
functions. Mainly the incumbent promotes greater colla-
boration and rapport between the public and the unit
where he is employed.
Creation of this class will provide the necessary lee-
way by which our top ranking administrative staff can
best discharge their duties and responsibilities. More-
over, this will update the index of administrative classes.
The Board clarified the applicability to the Elementary
School of its resolution (845th meeting, 25 April 1974)
to give pre-collegiate (high school and elementary)
courses 0.9. as much teaching load credit as that of
undergraduate collegiate courses, to the effect that-
The normal teaching load services in the V.P. Elem-
entary School shall remain at twenty (20) hours per
week. The nine tenths (0.9) evaluation factor for the
elementary school courses approved by the Board shall
apply only to overload-teaching (beyond the 20 hours
per week normal load).
Applying the April 25 Board resolution to the teaching
load in the Elementary School in the same way that the
0.9 factor is applied in the University High School would
result in drastically bringing down the normal teaching
load from 20 hours (6-7 classes) a week to only 13 1/3
(4-5 classes) a week, and approximately P28.0000.00 per
semester would be needed to pay the honoraria for over-
load-teaching (beyond the 13 1/3 hours a week of nor-
mal load).
OCCUPATIONAL HAZARD DIFFERENTlAL AMONG
INSTlTUTION WORKERS ASSIGNED IN PSYCHI-
ATRY UN1TS
The Board approved the extension among institution
workers assigned in the psychiatry units in the Philip-

The Board approved the increase in the rates of com-
posing jobs of D.P. Science Education Center's IBM
Composing Unit for all jobs (for U.P. and ontside en-
tities or parties with priority in terms of time schedule
given to jobs for D.P. units), effective October 1, 1974,

proved by the Board at its 826th meeting on 27 Nevent-
ber 19i2 will remain the same.
Increase in maintenance cost and cost of materials,
i.e., tapes, ribbons, and fonts, necessitates the above in-
creased rates.

SCHOLARSHIPS,
GRANTS
The Board clarified its resolution accepting the grant
from the Family Planning International Assistance and
the International Association for Voluntary Sterilization
for the project "Tr-aining Center for Surgical Ster'iliza-
tion'' (848th Meeting, 27 June 1974,) to wit:
The approval and implementation of the research
contract shall be subject to the condition that the phys-
ical improvements and surgical equipment from the
grant will automatically become the property of the
Philippine General Hospital at the termination of the
grant in addition to the return to the ward of the
spaces used by the training center for the use of
hospital patients.
COLLECTION OF FEES
The Board. approved the increase in the graduate ad-
mission fee at the College of Home Economics from
P10.00-to P20.ao for Filipinos and from $10.00 to $20.00
[or foreign applicants, effective the second semester,
academic year 1974-1975, and to constitute into a re-
volving fund income from such fees, to be used in de-
fraying expenses in connection with the administration of
the graduate program.
In accordance with the Board's resolution at its 832nd
meeting on 26 April 1973, one-half of the fees will be
retained by the unit and the other half to be given to
the unit administering the test.
The Board approved the revision of the recently ap-
proved laboratory fees in the College of Pharmacy, as
follows:
Subject

Roberto C. Tan as Assistant Professor 1 of Ophthal-
mology (part-time), College of Medicine, and At-
tending Ophthalmologist (part-time), Philippine

REV1SED SCHEDULE OF RATES
The Board approved the following revised schedule of
photocopying rates in the University Library:
Short or legal size 10 copies or less -PO.70 per copy
Short or legal size 11 copies or more -PO.GO per copy
Master size (10 x 14) -PO.70 per copy
At present, the charge per copy for photocopying ir-
respective of the number of copies, is a flat rate of PO.70.
To provide incentive to students and other Iibrary users
The Board authorized applicants for admission to the
University, who are not Filipino citizens but are chil-
dren of full-time members of the faculty and/or the ad-
ministrative staff, to pay the basic application fee of
!tl0.00 paid by Filipino applicants, instead of $10.00 as
paid by foreign applicants.
The Board noted that this fee shall be raised to PI5.00
with the UPCAT to be administered in December 1974.

pine General Hospital of the difficult .assignrnent dif-
ferential for the very same reasons that the nurses and
nursing attendants are given these benefits "in view of
their direct participation and involvement in the care of
psychiatric patients and - their exposure to physical ha-
zards in the event of attack of patients." Although it
may be true that the institution workers have no direct
involvement as far as actual nursing care is concerned,
they are very much involved in the control of violent
patients and exposed to physical injuries that -may be in-
flicted by tbese patients.
In this connection, the Board categorized this bene-
fit as occupational ha.zard differential, as differen-
tiated from the difficult assignment differential, the for-
mer applicable to those exposed to some hazards not ne-
cessarily present in the other units or departments of
the hospital (such as radiation and physical harm) while
the latter is given those who work under exacting and
unique conditions and demands which make their work
more difficult than that in the wards (such as those as-
signed in the' operating room, emergency room, etc.).
CREATION OF TITLES AS WRITER-IN-RESIDENCE,
ARTIST-IN-RESIDENCE, MUSICIAN-IN-RESIDENCE,
ETC.
The Board approved the creation of such titles as
Writer-in-Residence, Artist-in-Residence, Musician-in-Re-
sidence <as the case may be) for highly qualified and
deserving faculty members in the creative arts (litera-
ture, fine arts, music), who shall not be regularly per-
forming administrative functions in order to qualify for
the title, effective upon approval. This title shall be held
by the faculty member concerned for a period of three
(3) years, renewable for like periods if proof of produc-
tion is demonstrated, and will entitle the holder to the
following privileges for the period such title is held:
a. A teaching load of not less than three (3) hut
not more than six (6) units per semester or trimester;
b. An honorarium of P3,OOO.OO per annum, in addi-
tion to the full salary j and
c. Temporary enjoyment of cumulative vacation and
sick leaves.
The Board 1Wted that a number of the faculty members
in the creative arts are urgently in need of time to work
on their projects. While some have been given reduced
teaching load of three (3) units, such a reduction has
not really given them ample time to be productive during
their most active years.
It is therefore high time the University extended this
recognition to deserving faculty members who are also
creative artists and writers in their own right in order
to fully exploit their potentials.
It is understood that more than one deserving person
in each category may be appointed at the same time such
that for example there may simultaneously be a poet-in-
residence, a novelist-in-residence, a historian-in-residence,
a painter-in-residence, a sculptor-in-residence, etc.
ADOPTION OF NEW SALARY SCALE
The Board approved the adoption of a new salary Beale
for academic and administrative personnel of the Univer-
sity, effective July 1, 1974, in -order to comply with. the
Presidential directive authorizing the payment of a 10%
across-the-board salary adjustment for all employees of
the national government.
(For the new salary scale, see pages 148-150)
INTERNAL OPERATING BUDGET OF THE UNI-
VERSITY SYSTEM
Tbe Board approved the Internal Operating Budget
of the University System for Fiscal Year July I, 1974

including all funds.
REVISED RULES ON AUTOMATIC PRE'-RETIRE-
MENT INCREASE IN SALARY FOR ADMINISTRA-
TIVE PERSONNEL
The Board approved the revised rules on automatic
pre-retirement increase in salary for administrative per-
sonnel (those who will retire at compulsory retirement
age of 65), subject to the following conditions:
a. The automatic pre-retirement increase in salary shall
be given not earlier than one (1) year nor later than
three (3) months prior to the date of retirement, as

dered at least 15 years but below 20 years of
service to the University at the time of retire-
ment.
(2) Two-step increase, or the maximum step of the
range, whichever is higher - for those who shan
have rendered at least 20 years of service to the
University at the time of retirement.
(3) In exceptionally meritorious cases, the President
may give more than the increases indicated in
(I) and (2) above.
b. For the purpose of determining the automatic pre-
retirement salary increases proposed in item a above,

HISTORICAL PAPERS AND DOCUMENTS
NOTES ON A CONFERENCE
By OSCAR III. ALFONSO
SecretaT1/ 0/ the University
VOL. V, NO.8
If Superstar came on July 26 once more and prodded
anyone in Quezon Hall to "take me to your leader" for
the necessary permit to shoot Diliman, it would have
had to be changed quickly to uyour second in com-
mand" and then to "third in command," and farther
down the pecking order.
The top of the order was in Baguio. The President
with Mrs. Lopez. The vice-president for academic a f ~
fairs. The vice-president for administration. The secre-
tary of the university. The deans, save only Drs. Herrera,
Cabrera, Picache, Encarnacion and Cruz who were, of
course, represented. The directors and unit heads. The
college secretaries. And the presidential and vice presi-
dential assistants, and assistants to some deans.
And Regent Tomas S. Fonacier, a senior member of the
Board of Regents.

Weekend of July 26-28 they were in Bagnio for what
was so technically dubbed the first lIIanagement De-
velopment Conference of Deans, Directors and College
Secretaries.
The professed objectives: (1) to identify and illumine
the common and unique problems of college, institute
and unit administration, (2) to provide an exchange of
experiences and solutions to these problems, and (3) to
evolve alternative or new approaches to the solution of
these management problems.

For two days and two nights, Pines Hotel was both
home and office to some 130 lowlanders from throughout
the U.P. System.
Pines was fine with its newly-refurbished rooms and
imported bathroom fixtures. Except for the audibility of
one's next-door neighbor up and scuffling about and
talking to roommate at 5:30 in the morning. llleals and
snacks were respectable, breakfast more than ample,
being (surprise!) buffet.

Spouses of some conference participants came paying
their way: Mrs. A.L. Bonifacio, Mrs. F. Salamanca,
Mrs. C.S. Alfonso, Cesar Pangalangan, Roman Santos.
They were there for the sheer pleasure of being with
husband/wife-at breakfast, at lunch, at dinner, if that
is sheer pleasure. And to lend aid and comfort after
one particular session, as it turned out. But any thoughts
of daytime enjoyment of Baguio with spouse flew quickly
out the window. The tight conference schedule saw to
that.

The President in this keynote speech charged the con-
ference to "deal with matters less philosophical and
esoteric. more pragmatic and practical, that is, with
the day-to-day problems of running the University and
administering its affairs." Afternoon of the following
day, noting the opposite drift of the discussions there-
tofore. the President somewhat impatiently remarked at
the third plenary session: "I thought we were going to
take advantage of this opportunity to tackle housekeep-
ing problems."
Following which one participant took the floor forth-
with and engaged one of the session speakers in a high-
flown discussion of a strictly theoretical point.

Four plenary sessions were held: Friday afternoon
almost directly upon arrival of the participants; Satur-
day morning; Saturday afternoon; and Sunday (yes,
Sunday) morning. The conference thrice divided into
five work groups. after the first plenary and before and
after the third. Time was somehow found for meals.
The Cafiao Room doubled. nay, tripled as dining room.
plenary room (classroom?), and part-time civility cham-
ber. Work groups met in small rooms downstairs back
of the Cafiao.

One of the plenaries was not quite the "disaster" some
vocally said it was. Nothing that a quantum of firmness
in moderation, and a modicum of self-discipline in time
utilization and some lucidness in paper presentation
could not have helped. The session was most instructive
contrariwise.
Lesson one: the use of the comparative. Long, longer,
longest. Tedious, more tedious, most tedious.
Lesson two: two senses or uses of the word "suffer"-
to allow or to tolerate; and to undergo or to go through.
It was educational in a telling way.

Quickest to learn were the conference organizers. That
evening after dinner, they held an emergency pow-wow.
They discovered there is such a thing as allocating- time
among paper presenters.
And so was born the 15-minute allocation. Still, even
the better presenters found it a strain keeping within
this at the next session. But no matter. It was a better
session. and another lesson had been driven home: the
value of feedback when it is direct and unequivocal.

The conference air was thick with jargon, worse com.
pounding the long wearisome presentation of some papers.
Before the start of one work group meeting, Dean R. O.
Juliano remarked: "SumtUa.kit na ang ula ko, Puro jar.
gon!" Commented Dr. D. A. Ramirez: UI thought they
would put it in layman's language."
The President no less referred to this in his closing
remarks on Sunday noon. He agreed with Dean A. L.
Juinio's observation the evening before. during cocktails
at Camp John Hay: on the whole, this has been a good
conference; let's have more of it; but let's have less jar-
gon.

One of the better papers in point of both content and
delivery came from Dean M. F. Bonifacio. The paper was
specific on its subject of what makes for good leadership

AUGUST 31, 1974


V.P. GAZETTE
145

in an academic unit, and by being thus specific the writer


placed himself on the block, as it were, by holding up a
mirror against which to be judged. As regards the deli-
very, Chancellor A. G. Samonte remarked enthusiastically:
"Magaling si Bonifacio ah-!"
Dean R. K. Mangahas commented that a good dean, a
true leader of his faculty, must maintain a low profile.
He should never be a threat to his faculty and should not
compete with his faculty. One of the areas where this
should be true, she said, is in getting travel grants, for
a fair dean should give more opportunities for his faculty
to travel.
* *
A model of paraphrasing and conciseness was PEA De-
puty Administrator P. M. Manalo's presentation of the
paper of Administrator C. P. Ramos, who was abroad.
The delivery was clear and forceful and gave neither time
nor reason for anyone to fidget.
* *
The conference derived success from the President's
presence and active participation, in all the plenary ses-
sions and the work group meetings as well. He missed only
a small portion of the plenary on the morning of July 27
while he hied himself to D.P. at Baguio at about 10:30 to
inaugurate its new high school building, after which he
hurried back to the session.
Not knowing what time the inauguration would be, I
had asked the President before the start of the session
whether he would be there for the scheduled "confront-
ation" between central administration and the conference
participants. There would be some questions only you
can answer, I said. Yes, of course, he replied; I want
to be there.
* *
Perhaps the best part of the whole conference was the
"confrontation" - actually, happily a "dialogue." Clari-
fications were made on many important points on Satur-
day morning and again the following Sunday morning.
The President, by turns agreeable, only rarely annoyed,
occasionally admonitory, but mostly relaxed and in fine
humor, fielded questions frankly and directly. The most
candid moments came when he limned the relationship
of the deans with the President and how he would treat
with those among them who are aloof, indifferent or
hostile.
* *
Questions concerning promotions took a good two hours.
Dean I. R. Cortes wanted to know about priorities. Vice-
President N. B. Tablante said priority is given to those
who have received only a one-step promotion or not at
all in the last five years or more.
Neglected faculty members are looked into first, ac-
cording to the President, though not necessarily promoted
first, for there might be valid reasons for their not be-
ing promoted. On the other hand, one may have been but
recently promoted, but before that he may not have been
promoted for five years or longer, ~ n d ~ o he has to be
brought abreast of his contemporaries If he had been
neglected in the past although he had been doing good
work. The President made it clear he is ~ o t for. a. hard-
and-fast rule that no promotion can be given within one
or two years after the most reecnt one; such a rule can
only be implemented on the basis of an overall review 'of
the faculty member's record.
* *
Dean D. C. SaIita pointed out that promotions in Arts
and Sciences are among the slowest. By actual examina-
tion of the records, he said, it had been established that
there are some who have been instructors for from nine
to fifteen years, while some of their former students
are now associate or even full professors.
Chancellor Samonte also thought that promotions in
AS were the slowest, but that was before he went to Los
Banos. He discovered several Ph. D. holders there who
are still assistant professors after so many years. If
there is anything slower than slowest, interposed Dean
C. A. Manuel, then it is Iloilo.
Another lesson in the comparative.
* * *
Director G. G. Carreon wanted a system of feedback
whereby recommending officials can be informed about
the reasons for reducing or disapproving recommendations
for promotions (available funds notwithstanding, some-
times) so that they can be explained to the faculty and
they will then know what to do to be deserving of promo-
tion. Director F. M. Bacungan said the reasons may some-
times be so obvious that it would be ridiculous to explain.
But recommendations are well considered before they are
submitted, and the actions of deans are presumably ra-
tional.
Dr. Tablante, spreading the welcome mat with cups
of coffee to boot, assured the deans they can come to his
office.
Replying to a question from the President as to whether
the deans tell their faculty members the reason for their
not being promoted, Director Bacungan drew exuberant
laughter when he offered this explanation which he had
given someone whose promotion he had recommended but
which had been turned down by the personnel committee:
"It turns out that according to the high traditions of ex-
cellence of this university, you are not acceptable; it may
well be that because I'm new on this job, I did not realize
those traditions very well."
* * *
The President enjoined the deans to mtmmtze the oc-
casions when they recommend everybody for promotion
because they do not want to hurt anybody and they ex-
pect the Academic Personnel Board will do the screening
anyway. "You don't want to be in bad terms- with your
faculty, you want to be friends with all of them, and so
you do not want to assume the responsibility of disap-
pointing them. You then ten your faculty, it was Quezon
Hall that disapproved your promotion." Please do not
overdo this, the President said, and he asked the deans
to do some screening in good faith at their level.
* *
Dean P. G. Ramos inquired whether there is a definite
sum allocated for promotions, and how often the deans
can send up recommendations, and when. Director G. J.
Mateo replied that P250,OOO was set aside for promotions
in last year's budget. Its use had to be suspended, h ~ w
ever, because of the need for funds to support the Im-
plementation of the new salary scales. .
Vice-President R. C. portugal pointed out tha.t m the
case of administrative personnel, recommendations are
146 V.P. GAZETTE VOL. V, No.8
due twice a year, in May and October, for promotions
effective July 1 and January 1, respectively. The Pres-
ident commented that quarterly submission of recom-
mendations might be a good idea, so that the level of
work of the Academic Personnel Board would be even
and regularized during the year, thereby avoiding slack
or heavy months.

Dean Juinia posed the problem of faculty members in
some disciplines or units whose salaries are not competi-
tive with those outside the University and who therefore
find it difficult to remain with the University. What can
be done? If they are given higher salaries there would
be an imbalance in salary scales.
The President recalled that when he came in 1969, one
of his first concerns was to correct the different salary
scales in various units of the University, and so, uni-
form scales were adopted for all units. On general prin-
ciples of justice and equity, he stressed, basic salary
scales must be uniform throughout the University, and
he would not want to go back to the differential scales
of five years ago. Recognizing the seriousness of the
problem raised by Dean Juinio, however, the President
indicated certain approaches to the problem, such as the
granting of professorial chairs and allowing faculty
members to accept consultanciea outside the University.

Addressing himself to the matter of recruitment, the
President reminded the deans to use their best judgment
in getting new faculty members. He "noted that a great
many of the recommendeea have only a bachelor's degree,
and that some of them have very poor records "with 5's
all over their transcripts."
Please exercise more stringent control of recruitment
procedures, the President said, and let us at least get the
cream of the crop if we must employ those without M.A.
or Ph.D.

Before hurrying out for his engagement at the D.P.
at Baguio campus, the President turned to the question,
what is the role of a dean in the University set-up?
The deans being line officers, the President said, they
tend to regard themselves" mainly if not exclusively as
deans of the faculty, as the leaders of their faculty. But
he hoped they do not forget that in addition to being
deans of their faculties, they are the representatives of
the administration, the alter ego of the President, in
their unit.

The President went on:
"That's why you have a hell of a job. (Laughter from
the audience.} That's why I too have a hell of a difficult
job. (Laughter.) You are between two fires-the facul-
ty and the administration.
"But if it's any comfort to you, so am I caught be-
tween you and the Board of Regents.
HSO don't act as if all you have to worry about is
your faculty. Please try now and then to worry about
me, too." (Loud laughter.)

He wanted to make a point of this, continued the Pres-
ident, because in recent months he had been made very
keenly aware that some deans behave toward him as if
he were commander of a citadel that must be stormed
by the members of their faculty, and the dean must
lead an army against Quezon Hall.
"Well, you better think twice. You are not just leading
your faculty. You are my man in your unit. And let no-
body forget itt (Loud laughter.)
"If you think you're there because your faculty loves
you (laughter), fine. Don't forget that you're there be-
cause 1 love you!" (Loudest laughter, with prolonged
applause.)
.. * '"
Dean N. M. Nisperos adverted to the need to help new
units like U.P. at Tacloban and to rotate faculty from
Diliman for assignment in the regional units. Dr. Tab-
lante said a proposal had been submitted for the assign-
ment of faculty members from Diliman to regional units
for at least one semester, to teach there and to help
develop programs, with similar incentives as already
approved by the Board of Regents for such assignments
for at least one year.
Chancellor Samonte commented that while he is for
helping develop programs of regional units that are
complementary to those of other units of the University
System, there is the problem that we have been too per-
missive, if not "promiscuous" in sharing highly talented
manpower with the external units. From the manage-
ment point of view, he said, we must see to it that our
Ph.D. holders are properly utilized. Spreading themselves
too thin and letting them spend a weekend commuting
to and from a far place, would sap their energy and
would not be conducive to creativity or productivity.
The Chancellor expressed grave doubts about the wis-
dom of sending lecturers to the regional units every two
weeks to cover six hours of class work in a short period
of only one day, teaching in one day what they would
take two weeks to coyer if the course were taught in
Diliman or Manila.
He urged a serious restudy of the situation and the
application of such concepts as "critical mass" and "eco-
nomic size" to the operations of the University, including
assignments to regional units and special detail in other
agencies.

On rejoining the session after the inauguration of the
U.P. at Baguio high school building, the President re-
ferred to the remark made in his absence by Dean Boni-
facio that even parents do not love all their children
equally.
Dean Bonifacio hastened to interject, drawing guffaws
from the President and from everyone : "Mr. President,
I posited a psychological principle rather than a practice
in the administration."

The President then said:
"I'm human. I'm not going to claim here that I like
or I love all the deans equally. (Laughter from the aud-
ience.)
"But I like to think that I have treated you all fairly.
And I mean to do this in the future.
"I'll be frank with you. There are some deans who
have displeased me. I'm human, like the rest. (Laughter.)
I'm not going to say that I'm insensitive to your treat-

AUGUST 31, 1974 V.P. GAZETTE 147

ment of me. After all, love is a two-way affair, right 1"


(Laughter.)
(AmQT con arnor se paga, Dean Cortes said beside me,
quoting someone.)
.,
The best kind of love, the President said, is the reci-
procal type, not the one-way kind. But in some cases
there are personal differences, and often the difference
is with some deans, not with him.
"I react to how you behave toward me. And that's
very human. I'm not going to tell you that no matter
how you treat me I'll be nice to you just the same.
{Laughter.') That would be untrue, dishonest."

If he is treated with respect, with consideration, with
affection, the deans will get the same kind of treatment
from him, the President continued.
"Now, if you treat me in a different way, with aloof-
ness, indifference, with hostility, then you also get that
kiud of treatment! (Laughter.) But I will try never-
theless to be fair and just to you. But that's all you'll
get!" (Laughter.) (And applause.)
*
It was a long, fruitful Saturday capped fittingly
enough by dinner at John Hay. "Tie a yellow ribbon
round the old oak tree," played and sung by a male
trio on request, wafted its welcome lilting notes at tea
time.
But there were flies in the ointment. Dean F. A. Ber-
nardo's pants would not come unstuck from his seat
because someone had used the chair to relieve himself
of chewed chewing gum.
Over at Session Road a brown Ford, Dr. Tablante's
official car, ran smack into an electric post, the driver
momentarily blinded by the bright headlights of an on-
coming car. Badly damaged, the car had to be towed to
the local V.P. campus, there to await the tender minis-
trations of an imported automotive surgeon from Man-
ila.
* * '"
At the last plenary on Sunday morning, attention
focused on the Physical Plant Office and other adminis-
trative offices. (Unaccountably, the list of invited parti-
cipants did not include the PPO director, although the
chief accountant, the assistant auditor and a represent-
ative from the property division were there.)
The deans wanted to know why the PPO takes longer
and charges more for repair and other jobs than if the
same were done outside. They complained about the
auditor's office disallowing reimbursement of taxi fare
even for urgent, official trips. Dean Cortes wanted to
know by what criteria or priorities official cars are as-
signed to units, and promptly staked a claim on one of
the remaining available ones. .
Dr. H. R. Estrada recalled how be once had to ~ l a l m
a load of laboratory mice from the Manila International
Airport, and how on earth could be have. transported
them from there by bus? Director M. A. Die called at-
tention to frequent voltage fluctuations that could wreak
havoc on electric and specially electronic equipment.

Reacting to some of the comments or suggestions, the
President:
a. Endorsed the suggestion of Dr. Estrada to put up
a warehouse or central storeroom for unusable or dis-
carded equipment, so that ingenious members of the U.P.
community may go there and have their pick of whatever
parts they may have official use for.
b. Asked the auditor, through the assistant auditor
who was present, to allow travel of deans by taxi for
urgent, official matters.
c. Stated that PPO charges for making furniture or
doing repairs should be competitive with the going rates
of private enterprise; otherwise, the deans might as well
be allowed to go out of the University for job orders.
d. Strongly suggested a hard, close look at the recruit-
ment and training program of the PPO, because in em-
ploying people it appears it does not adequately check
the qualifications and experiences of applicants and does
not get the best masons, the best carpenters, the best
electricians, etc.: and many among the present comple-
ment are getting old and not in touch with the latest
developments in their field.
e. Welcomed the plan of Director B. T. Miranda to
set up a mini-PPO in the Natural Science Research Cen-
ter because "healthy competition is always good and
might induce the PPO to do a better job."

The PPO having been given its proper share of atten-
tion and affection, the rest of the last plenary was a
quickie. It was announced that discussions on the work
group reports would be limited- "we're rushing because
there's a clamor to give a little time for shopping."
Dean Bernardo, Dean Cortes and Dean Juliano pre-
sented the summary reports from the various work
groups, with nary a discussion or a question, only a
brief comment from Mr. R. T. Domingo.

There remained for the Management Education Coun-
cil to look over the major points and recommendations
of the conference, to prepare a document for submission
to the President, and to indicate which recommendations
can soon be implemented.
For the conference participants, there were the shops
at Session Road. Seen at a vegetable mart near a bus
terminal before wending their way back to Diliman were
Dr. 'I'ablante, Dr. F. Dumlao-Fernandez, the Salamancas,
Acting Dean E. T. Velasco, the Bonifacios,. Director Dia,
Prof. O. L. Evangelista, Dr. G. H. Abad, Mr. M. C.
Ronas, and Mrs. I. Kim.

It was "the end of a good beginning," as Chancellor
Samonte put it; "an experience that will motivate us. to
know more about the realities, intricacies and require-
ments of management."
For, he adds, any administrator who thinks he has
finished his management education is finished but not
educated.

RAFAEL PALMA CENTENNIAL COMMITTEE
Dillman, Quezon City
20 September 1974
REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT PURSUANT TO
ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER NO. 238 DATED
13 SEPTEMBER 1974
This Committee was constituted to "consider and recom-
mend a University program of activities to commemorate
the centenary of the birth of Rafael Palma, fourth
president of the University of the philippines, on October
24, 1974."
The Committee, consonant with the President's sug-
gestion to "highlight [Palma's] distinguished career as
liberal thinker, writer, educator and nationalist and
focus attention on his life, career and character for the
emulation of our students and fellow-citizens," has con-
sidered various ways of doing him honor, taking into
account also the very welcome and well-considered sug-
gestions made by Rafael Palma Professor of History
Teodoro A. Agoncillo in his letter to the President dated
24 August 1974.
Rather than a one-day or one-shot observance of Palma's
centenary, the Committee inclines to a continuing com-
memoration lasting a month at least until the end of
November, if not December. This, by way of a minimum
round of activities to honor a man of such stature who,
but for the lateness of the hour, would normally rate a
longer celebration of his many and varied contributions
to the nation.
Accordingly, the Committee recommends:
1. The repair and renovation of Palma Hall and its
grounds, as a condition sine qua non to any commemora-
tion worthy of the building's namesake.
The Committee suggests in this connection (a) the pos-
sibility of student assistance as part of the YCAP
program, e.g., in scraping off the paint from the walls,
(b) the necessity of impressing Director Francisco Hi-
lario's talents in the cause of the AS surroundings, and
(c) the desirability of removing the old, unsightly chairs
from under the AS pavilions where they are stored
helter-skelter.
2. An exhibit on Palma's life and works, to open Octo-
ber 24 at the lobby of Palma Hall with appropriate
ceremonies.
The Committee suggests in this regard that (a) Palma's
family be invited and (b) a big blown-up picture of
Palma be installed in the lobby.
3. A symposium on Palma sometime in November,
when the second semester shall have been underway.
Suggested speakers: (a) President Lopez on "Palma
as Academician and Administrator," (b) Prof. Agoncillo
on "Rafael Palma: A Profile in Integrity and Courage,"
(c) Dean Leopoido Y. Yabes, and (d) Dean Armando J.
Malay.
4. A concert sometime in November.
5. A special issue of the CoUeuian devoted to Palma.
6. An essay contest on "Palma's Legacy to U.P." open
to the students, with cash prizes.
7. Issuance of a commemorative 8ta..mp by the Bureau
of Posts in Palma's honor, upon representations by Pres-
ident Lopez.
Suggested motif: Palma's likeness together with a
vintage photograph of the old Palma Hall in Padre Faura.
8. Installation of a bust or bas-relief of Palma. in
Palma Hall, like Vinzons' in Vinzons Hall.
9. A popular banquet in Palma's honor sometime in
December, involving in particular the "Palma alumni" or
the University's graduates during its Molave Period.
10. Publication of a commemorative brochure.
Finally, the Committee suggests that subcommittees be
given charge of the above recommendations the soonest,
as time is running short.
Parenthetically, the Committee takes this opportunity
to underscore the patent need for a permanent committee
or office to plan all centenary or anniversary activities in
the University way ahead of date, so they are not given
to hasty improvisation or makeshift arrangement.

MEMORANDUM CIRCULARS
Memorandum Circular No. 22: Reopening of National
Archives to U.P. Scholars
Please be informed that the President of the Philippine
has approved the request of U.P. President Salvador P.
Lopez for the reopening of the National Archives to U.P.
scholars.
The President's approval was transmitted in a memo-
randum to the Director of the National Archives from
Presidential Executive Assistant Jacobo C. Clave dated
10 September 1974, a copy of which was furnished the
President of the University.
President Lopez had underscored the importance of the
archives as Han inexhaustible treasure house of docu-
ments pertaining to virtually every aspect of the Spanish
rule in the country," in a letter to President Marcos on
August 7 in response to an urgent appeal from Dr. Leslie
E. Bauzon, Chairman of the Department of History. He
urged the reopening of the archives to enable scholars
to shed light on important phases of the Spanish period
through archival investigation.

increased fee is justified by the increased cost of athletic
supplies and equipment.

The Board approved a recommendation from the Fi-

made of the institution of a system of payment of salaries
of University personnel by checks beginning 1 January
1975.
The Board approved the removal of the Class Manager,
Basilan Land Grant (Range 12) from the Index of
Administrative Classes of the University.
As one of the major income-producing units of the
University, the Basilan Land Grant requires a head who
must possess not only technical know-how but also high
managerial qualities. The distance of the land grant from
the main University campus also requires a manager
who can render sound and independent decisions with
promptness and dispatch in order to maintain an efficient
organization.
Removal of the position from said index will provide
flexibility of compensation allocation and insure the hiring
of a top-caliber manager.
a. Division of Social Sciences and Humanities;
b. Division of Biological Sciences;
c. Division of Physical Sciences and Mathematics;
d. Division of Business and Public Administration; and
e. Division of Professional Education.
The Board approved the creation of the following
academic divisions in the University of the Philippines
at Iloilo effective the first semester, academic year 1974-
1975, and the appointment of a chairman for each:
CHANGE IN SALARY SCALES FOR NEW CLASS

The Board approved the change in the salary scales for
the new class positions of Admissions Specialist III,
Admissions Specialist IV, and Associate Computer Pro-
grammer, to make them conform with the new U.P. salary
scales.
The Board noted that when the new class titles were
submitted for approval by the Board, the new salary
scales were not yet in effect; hence, the recommended
scales were still based on the then existing 1973 scales.
d. Offs.t -
(1) Minimum of P2.00 per plate for the first ream;
(2) P1.50 for succeeding copies per ream.

The Board approved the increase in the fee charged b)'
the Philippine General Hospital for medical certificates
(medico-legal certificates, certificates in connection with
claims in the SSS, WCC, etc.) from PO.50 to ?l.OO.
The amount of PO.50 had been the same since post-
liberation days despite increases in the cost of materials.
The Board likewise authorized the PGH to charge non-
patient clients for psychiatric evaluation tests a fee of
P15.00. Income derived from this source will help the
hospital finance its varied activities.

TELEGRAM FOR PRESIDENT MARCOS ON IDS BIRTHDAY ANMVERSARY
REQUEST TO EXEMPT U.P. FACULTY FROM TRAVEL BAN
11 SEPTEMBER 1974
HIS EXCELLENCY FERDINAND E. MARCOS
PRESIDENT OF THE PHILIPPINES
MALACANANG, MANILA
ON BEHALF OF THE UNIVERSITY OF THE
PHILIPPINES I FEEL HONORED AND HAPPY TO
CONVEY TO YOU OUR WARMEST CONGRATULA
TIONS ON YOUR BIRTHDAY ANNIVERSARY AND
12 September 1974
His Excellency Ferdinand E. Marcos
President of the Philippines
Malacafiang, Manila
Dear Mr. President:
I am deeply concerned to note that in recent days the
requests for authority to travel abroad of several faculty
and staff members of the University of the Philippines
have been disapproved, in line with the restriction you
have ordered imposed on foreign travel as a means of
curbing government expenditures and preventing the
dissipation of our foreign exchange reserves.
As you may recall, Mr. President, in a letter to you
dated November 15, 19"72, I requested that a more under-
standing policy on this matter be followed with respect
to the V.P. Our request was given favorable consider-a-
tion and we are grateful for this. This letter is in
reiteration of that earlier request.
The faculty and staff development program of the
University provides our scientists, scholars and research-
ers with opportunity to develop further their knowledge
and expertise through graduate studies and/or attend-
ance in conferences, seminars, workshops and continuing
education programs here as well as abroad. In most
cases, the expenses involved are borne by private founda-
tions, foreign governments or international organizations
which sponsor these activities.
It is imperative that our scholars and scientists par-
ticipate in international conferences and seminars if they
are to keep abreast of the latest developments in their
OUR BEST WISHES FOR THE SUCCESS OF YOUR
EFFORTS TO ESTABLISH THE NECESSARY CON-
DITIONS THAT WOULD ENABLE THE FILIPINO
PEOPLE TO CREATE A JUST AND COMPASSION-
ATE SOCIETY BY DEMOCRATIC AND PEACEFUL
MEANS STOP WE OFFER OUR HEARTFELT
SUPPORT AND COOPERATION FOR THE ACHIEVE.
MENT OF THIS END
SALVADOR P. LOPEZ
fields of interest. This continuing relationship with their
foreign counterparts is one of the most effective ways
of enriching their knowledge and experience, thereby
enhancing their capabilities as teachers and researchers.
Furthermore, the pursuit of graduate studies abroad by
our faculty and staff members insures a continuing, if
insufficient, supply of specialists in those fields which are
essential to national development. These activities are
indispensable to the continuing development of the Uni-
versity and the expansion of the nation's high level
manpower resources. The unqualified restriction of these
activities, therefore, would wall us in from the expanding
horizons of knowledge beyond our national boundaries,
to the detriment of our country and people.
We are aware that foreign travel is expensive and
represents a drain on our foreign exchange reserves.
However, we also feel that these expenditures for faculty
and staff development are investments in a very real
sense, since they are actually investments in human re-
sources needed for nation-building.
For these reasons, I would like to request that applica-
tions for travel abroad of our faculty and staff members
be acted upon favorably as justifiable exemptions from
the ban on foreign travel. For our part we will assume
responsibility for screening these applications before fOT-
warding them to you for approval.
With assurances of highest esteem and regard.
Sincerely yours,
(Sgd.) SALVADOR P. LOPEZ
President

II
NARRATOR:
I have tried to distill a few basic principles
to guide me in running the University.
The first of these is that the University
is both a conservator of the wisdom of the past
and an agent of change--
the nation's primary instrument for the purpose.

First performed at a Test-imonial Concert to mark the


fifth a,nniversary of the inauguration of Dr. Salvador
P. Lopez as the Tenth President of the University of the
Philippines, under the baton of Dr. Eliseo M. Paiero,
and with the participation of Professor Aurelio Estanis-
lao as narrator, Mr. Elmo 111akil as baritone, and the
U.P. Speech Choir, the U.P. Concert Chorus, and the
Ma.n:ila Symphony Orchestra, in the Abelardo Hall Aud-i-
torium, September 16, 1971,.
I
CHORUS:
God willing, we shall strive to make this University
an institution more hospitable
to the idealism of our youth
and more relevant to the needs of our nation-
an instrument more responsive
to the clamor of our people
for the transformation of society
so that all may enjoy the blessings
of a better life in larger freedom.
NARRATOR:
In taking my oath of office
as the Tenth President of the University of the
Philippines,
I have agreed to exchange the problems of the world
for the problems of the campus.
I have neither sought nor aspired to this high position.
I accept with humility and resolve
the challenge of its responsibilities.
SPEECH CHOIR:
I bring to this high office no special gifts or
qualifications except capacity for hard work. and.
devotion to duty, an abiding love for the University,
and a deep respect for its mission.
SPEECH CHOIR:
The second is that the University's approach to
truth must be both creative and dynamic;
it must not only reflect light from without
but must also give forth its own light.
NARRATOR:
The third is that the University
is a single, indivisible community of scholars
composed of professors and students
jointly engaged in the pursuit of goodness, truth
and beauty.
SPEECH CHOIR:
The fourth is that the University must hold the
balance between universalism and nationalism.
It must be hospitable to all views and opinions,
and accessible to all ideologies and philosophies.
Instead of closing windows that are already open,
it should open windows that are still closed.
III
SPEECH CHOIR:
This University is a community of scholars.
It is scholarship alone that gives the University
its being as well as its reason for being.
The University of our time has assumed a dangerous
mission and the scholar must accept a dangerous
calling.
The University and the scholar must pursue ideas
no matter how unpopular they may be,
or however dangerous it may be to hold them.
NARRATOR:
The University in a developing society
cannot afford to be an Ivory Tower.
It must be geared to the goals of academic excellence
168 V.P. GAZETTE
VOL. V, NO.9
and yet also concern itself
with service to the community and the nation.
It must be relevant to the needs,
and responsive to the aspirations of the national
society.
SPEECH CHOIR:
Truth and knowledge have value in themselves.
NARRATOR:
But their value is infinitely enhanced
when they are utilized by the people
to carve their own destiny so that
they may cease to be the slaves of circumstance.
To contribute to that purpose and advance
man's struggle for freedom and quest for happiness-
SPEECH CHOIR:
This is the scholar's task,
a task that calls for purposeful dedication.
IV
NARRATOR:
During the barricades of 1971
there were those who wanted me to invite
the police and the military to enter the campus
and disperse the embattled students.
Traffic was being obstructed, I was told,
and the police had a duty to perform.
I rejected the argument.
If the problem is that simple, I said,
then the V.P. does not need a President.
AU it needs is a Chief of Police.
I asked President Marcos to let me use persuasion
Instead of bullets, and he agreed.
I could talk to the- students
because they trusted me.
I lived, worried and agonized with them
on their side of the barricades.
On the ninth day, upon my insistent demand,
they dismantled the barricades
and peace returned to the campus.
Thus, in a situation that could have resulted
in a bloody massacre of students
and the destruction of the University,
we lost only one life
plus a few tables, desks and chairs.
My policy was criticized at that time
as a policy of weakness.
But if my policy seemed weak,
it was only because I was strong' for human life.
V
SPEECH CHOIR:
We must deal with students with respect and
consideration.
We must respond to their requests and demands
with sincerity and understanding.
Students do not surrender their fundamental rights
when they enter the University.
Students, in turn, must accept their obligations
as members of the academic community.
They must respect the rights of others
and have due regard for the mission of the University.
We must uot be dismayed or frightened by student
activism.
We should rather find ways and means
of coming to terms with it,
without violent repression or abject surrender.
We must regard the movement as an expression
of the positive idealism of our youth,
proof of their discontent with things as they are,
their rejection of the shame and hypocrisy,
the cruelty and injustice of society.
It is in the context of an unjust society
that student activism should be considered.
It is an extension of the periodic agitations
for social change that have shaken
our country during the past half century,
spawned by the evils of a "sick society,"
where wealth and power are the monopoly of a few,
and poverty is the only heritage of the many.
We must try to understand the predicament of the
young.
We must not blame them but ourselves rather,
for giving them a world they do not want,
a world they want to change,
a world they never made.
VI
BARITONE SOLO:
We have come to a watershed
in the history of the University.
In November 1972
the University of the Philippines System was
established.
This decision was of capital importance.
It meant that this great institution
would not only continue to stand at the apex
of the national system of higher education
but would develop into a constellation
of autonomous regional universities belonging
to a multicampus University System.
The whole nation would share in the excellence
of its programs and anyone anywhere in the land
with the requisite ability would have the chance
to receive a good U.P. education.
Thus, the U.P. can make its presence felt everywhere,
its leavening influence will spread,
and the whole country will have become its campus.
Vll
NARRATOR:
Under martial law, the U.P. has been transformed,
as if by magic, into a tranquil grove of academe.
The graffiti and posters have disappeared
and the students have quit the streets.
Teachers are attending to their teaching
and students have gone back to their studies,
both with exemplary zeal.
The truth, however, is that the universities
have become quiescent rather than quiet.
The distinction is important.
The classrooms, libraries and laboratories
are inviolate havens of thought,
and fear cannot long canst-rain the human mind.
Quiescence is not necessarily synonymous with
tranquility nor acquiescence with affirmation.

.'
A university that has become as silent as a
has lost the right to be called a university.
SPEECH CHOIR:
Weare running a race with catastrophe.
For, it is far easier to lose freedom without bloodshed
than to regain freedom without bloodshed.
A people may be willing to forego freedom and
democracy for the sake of necessary reforms,
but not indefinitely and certainly not forever.
To try to uproot love of freedom
from the heart of the Filipino
or to extinguish the flame of liherty
that burns in his soul
would be an impossible task.
Rather, we should try together as :l people
to achieve freedom with responsibility,
order without regimentation,
authority without tyranny-
that is, a compromise
between the integrity of individual life
and the imperatives of collective existence
and to achieve all this '
without the violence and bloodshed
that usually attend revolutionary enterprises.
VIII
NARRATOR:
I accepted the presidency of the U.P. in 1969
at a time when the position of university
administrator was the most hazardous and
unwanted job in the world.
It was not an easy decision to make.
Having already served in the highest positions
in the foreign service, and actually holding then
the two most important diplomatic posts
of the Republic, I seriously doubted the wisdom
of carving yet another career in the unfamiliar
and not-sa-tranquil grove of academe.
In the end, I decided to accept,
because all my life I have never evaded
the challenge of service.
I have never regretted the decision.
There may be more prestigious, better rewarded
positions than that of U.P. President.
but there is none more important,
more inwardly satisfying Or rewarding.
To be involved with the young
Is to be where the action is.
It is to have a hand in shaping tomorrow.
IX
CHORUS:
This University shall best serve the nation
by embracing forever the true vocation of a
university which is the earnest search for truth
and the tireless pursuit of knowledge,
by committing itself to creative scholarship
and placing itself resolutely
in the service of ideas.
In this time of crisis
we have been told to damp the lights
all over the nation.
Let's dim the lights in the streets,
in the farms, factories and coffee-shops,
even in our homes, if need be-
but we must never let the lights
go out in the University.
For, as long as the lights
are turned on in the University,
our land will never be plunged
in total darkness-
and our people will be able
to live and learn,
to work and eat their daily rice
by the light of freedom
from the lamp of truth.
THE V.P. SYSTEM AND V.P. AT LOS BANOS
By SALVADOR P. LOPEZ
President
(Extemporaneous remarks after recelVmg a testimomal plaque from Chancellor Abelardo G. Samonie
at a teetimonial dinner in the P.resident's honor at the U.P. at Los Banos Union main dining hall,
28 September 1971,)
What a difference between this pleasant gathering
tonight and the time I came to Los Banos in 1969, when,
as the "new boy" at Quezon Hall I had to rush here and
help then Vice-President Umali settle a massive protest
strike of faculty and students. We stayed up most of
the night around a four-sided conference table which the
students insisted upon and which so much reminded me
of the Vietname peace talks that were being held simul-
taneously in Paris.
Mrs. Lopez and I are really overwhelmed by this large
turnout. But as Regent Drilon told me earlier, one wonders
whether this is a rousing welcome or a rousing send-off.
In looking forward to my "tenth anniversary" as Pres-
ident of the University, Chancellor Samonte has impliedly
nominated me for another term of at least four years.
However, his is only one vote out of eleven in the Board
of Regents. But Regent Fonacier and Regent Drilon are
also here and, assuming they are in favor, that makes
three votes. With my own (assuming I'm also in favor)
that makes four votes. We need only two more to have
a majority!
People, however, seem to take for granted my impending
transfer to Padre Faura, back to the foreign service.
If that should happen, then the parallelism between my
career and that of my distinguished predecessor, Dr. Car-
los P. Romulo, would really be uncanny. I was in
Professor Romulo's class in American literature in 1930.
In 1933, when he moved from the Ma.nila Tribune to the
170 V.P. GAZETTE
VOL. V, NO.9
Philippines Herold, Editor-Publisher Romulo invited me
to become the latter paper's daily columnist and, later,
associate editor. After war broke out in December 1941,
I followed him to Corregidor where I worked with him
on the staff of General MacArthur. After liberation, he
asked me to help him establish the Philippine Mission
to the United Nations in New York. So, I have been
following his giants steps all the way, as Ambassador to
the U.N., Secretary of Foreign Affairs, Ambassador to
Washington, and President of the D.P. And now, am I
also going back to Padre Faura and diplomacy, as
Secretary Romulo did in 19691 That would be really too
extraordinary to be purely coincidental.
I have had four careers in the course of a lifetime:
eight years in journalism before the war, four years in
the army during the war, twenty-three years in diplomacy
after independence, and the last nearly six years in
education. Looking back over these forty years, I consider
the presidency of the University of the Philippines to be
the best, most important, most rewarding job I've ever
had. One has an extraordinary sense of commitment, of
being fully used, of being where the action is, of being
with the young and, therefore, of having a hand in
shaping tomorrow.
I would not exchange my six years in the University
for the twenty-three years I spent in the foreign service.
We have taken certain important initiatives in the
University which I'd like to see through. The U.P. System
was established on our recommendation under Presidential
Decree No. 58 issued by President Marcos on November
20, 1972, in response to the need to establish the autono-
mous U.P. at Los Banos. In a sense, the U.P. System had
to be established in order to accommodate the UPLB.
There has since been developing a special relationship
between Diliman and Los Banos. It was fortunate that
in the initial years of the UPLB as an autonomous
university there has been such excellent rapport between
the Chancellor and myself. With a different man in
Diliman and a different man in Los Banos, the relation-
ship might well have been very different. If I have ap-
proved virtually all important recommendations from Los
Banos, it's because the Chancellor had previously served
in Diliman for four years as Vice-President for Academic
Affairs and worked very closely with me on the problems
of the University; in the process, a high degree of mutual
respect and comprehension had grown between us. I hope
our successors in Diliman and Los Banos will maintain
this close rapport so as to ensure the success of UPLB
as an autonomous university within the System.
The success of UPLB as a member of the U.P. System
is crucial for three reasons: first, it is setting a pattern
of relationship appropriate between an autonomous uni-
versity and the System; secondly, it has been the pace-
setter in the development of adequate physical plant and
facilities; and thirdly, it is demonstrating the validity
of the philosophy underlying the D.P. System.
I'm told that Dr. Bienvenido M. Gonzalez once expressed
the belief that his administration as U.P. President would
be remembered for the transfer of the University from
Padre Faura to Dillman, which he boldly initiated and
carried out against powerful opposition. Similarly, I be-
lieve that my presidency would be remembered not only
as the most tumultuous in the history of the University,
but also as a period of unprecedented development for the
institution. These have been years of turmoil, exemplified
by the barricades of 1971, but they have also been years
of growth, exemplified by the establishment of the U.P.
System and of the UPLB as an autonomous member of
the System.
There may be attempts in the future, as there have been
in the past, to erode the unity and integrity of the U.P.
System. But I believe we have contained the most serious
of these attempts. Our main task now is to consolidate
the gains and advances that have been made in the last
two or three years.
I anticipate not the contraction of the U.P. System but
its further expansion. in a few days, I am going to Iloilo,
Cebu and 'I'acloban to preside over the ground-breaking
for new buildings.
For the first time, there is an appropriation in our
budget of PI million for each regional unit as a token
of the Board's desire to ensure that the U.P. System will
grow.
The assumption is that each of these regional units
should be given an opportunity to develop into an auto-
nomous university like Los Banos. But they can do this
only if they devise programs that are responsive to the
needs and aspirations of the people in the regions where
they are located while maintaining the high standards of
the University.
If our years in the University have been years of
growth in spite of turmoil, it's largely because I have had
the good fortune to enjoy an exceptionally fine working
relationship with the Board of Regents. No University
President has worked more closely and cooperatively with
the Board, and the Board with the President. I also would
like to acknowledge the continuing support I have received
from the national government, particularly from President
Marcos, who has given the U.P. the biggest operating
budget ever in its entire history: from P60 million last
year to P90 million this year, an increase of 50 percent-
and all of it programmed.. At the President's behest,
a five-year development program for the D.P. is being
prepared that will give the flagship campus in Dillman
the same massive upgrading of buildings, facilities and
programs that was achieved in Los Banos between 1966
and 1971.
I wish to repeat, I've not done this all by myself. In
addition to the cooperation of the Board of Regents and
the support of President Marcos, I have enjoyed the heip
of many men and women of great ability on the faculty
and in the administration of the University. True, I have
worked very hard on this job, but there are others too
many to name who have worked just as hard. To all of
them, I give my thanks.
My wife has been warning- me that many of my speeches
in recent months have begun to sound like valedictories.
Well, that probably can't be helped. All good things do
come to an end, even the Presidency of the U.P. If I may
advert once again to the impending end of my term, there
are other options open to me in addition to remaining in
the University (if the Regents will have me) or going
back to the foreign service. I hold a unique appointment
as University Professor, and I'd really love to teach and
have time to write. And, of course, there's always the
option of retirement. But at age 63, I don't think I can
stand the rigors of retirement.

SEPTEMBER 30, 1974 V.P. GAZETTE

My wife and I are agreed that I can best serve our
people by placing at their disposal the experience I have
gained in various capacities over a period at forty years.
At this stage of my life and career, having spent twenty-
three years in the foreign service, the diplomatic life
holds no more seductions for me, and I would prefer to
serve our people by living and working among them,
at home.
I have never sought any of the positions I have held;
I have always been asked or called to serve. This passive
attitude seems to have worked well during the past forty
years, and I see no reason to change it now.

His Honor
Mayor Norberta S. Amoranto
Quezon City
Dear Mayor Amaranto:
This will acknowledge your letter of September 13,
1974, inviting our attention to a telegram of Mr. A. D.
Narciso, a city resident who, among other things, sug-
gested that "the City government should apply pressure
on the University of the Philippines to develop and
beautify its campus and make it like a good park and a
tourist attraction".
I wish to assure you and through you, the residents
of Quezon City, that the University has been devoting
a great deal of attention and resources to the beautifica-
tion of its campus. It does not have to be pressured by
anybody to do this. The University has been attending to
this activity since it transferred from Manila in 1949.
Through its Office of Campus Landscaping, the University
at present has a continuing program of campus land-
scaping and beautification. Among 'the projects directed
toward this end is the planting of trees at the rate of
one hundred a month. We have started the development
of the lagoon behind the Administration Building into a
botanical garden with an aquarium. Our Arboretum near
the premises of the Philippine Atomic Energy Commission
and a Children's Playground near the Executive House
As President of the University of the Philippines and
Chairman of the Board of the University Press, I am
doubly gratified by the publication of Dr. Estrella Soli-
dum's excellent study, Towards a Southeast Asian Com-
munity. 1
The encouragement of scholarship is one great reason'
why the University exists. The University is a place
where the human intelligence can have full rein and en-
gage in the search for truth wherever it may lead.
It is fashionable in developing societies to say that
universities should engage only in studies and research
that are relevant to national needs. This aim is not dif-
ficult to achieve, because there is always a great deal
of money available for relevant research: for the develop-
ment of miracle rice, miracle swine, miracle fish, etc.,
or in the domain of population control or environmental
planning.
As President of the U.P., which is the country's main
center of research, and as a member of the National
Science Development Board, which gives millions of pesos
are popular attractions for community residents and out-
siders.
The University Avenue leading to the newly-constructed
Oblation Plaza boasts of well manicured santan hedges
that emphasize the beauty of the Dona Aurora flowering
trees. It is without question the most impressive avenue
in Quezon City or any other city of the country and has
been awarded many prizes. Foreign tourists as well as
promenaders from nearby communities come to visit the
Oblation statue towering above the multi-colored pool and
fountain at the end of the avenue.
In closing, may I in turn urge the Quezon City Govern-
ment to sustain its efforts to develop the Quezon Memorial '
Circle into a beautiful park which the residents of the
City so richly deserve and of which they can be proud.
I certainly agree that we should all take positive action
on the suggestions of Mr. Narciso which merit considera-
tion.
The U.P. will support and assist any program of land-
scape development and beautification which Quezon
City will initiate. It is good to know that this capital city
of the Republic is finally taking an interest in this
matter.
With kindest regards and best wishes.
Sincerely yours,
(Sgd.) SALVADOR P. LOPEZ
President

for relevant research, I must confess that I have a secret


predilection for the other kind of research: that which is
devoted to the search for miracle truth, the kind of truth
that makes man free. Such research, which is carried out
for the sake of truth and solely in the interest of truth,
may be of no immediate use, indeed it may appear to
have no conceivable utility in any foreseeable future.
But, it is research of this kind which in the end may
have the highest practical value: it enshrines truth, it
enhances the value of"truth, it puts truth on a pedestal,
so that untruth shall not prevail against it.
Scholarship in the University, like so many other
things, has fallen on difficult times. But, today, as we
launch a new book that has just come off the University
Press, we can still glory in the free activity of the acad-
emic mind which, when it truly flourishes, has no idols
and bows to no gods.
There is a third reason why I have joined you in wel-
coming this book. As one of the early actors in the dra-
ma of Southeast Asia - a drama in three acts: ASA,

TIlE NEW V.P. AT LOS BANOS
By CHANCELLOR ABELARDO G. SAMONTE
(Welcome remarks delivered at the 56th Loyalty Day Celebration, 10 October 1974)

Maphilindo and ASEAN - I'm delighted to learn from


the pages of Dr. Solidum's book that, somehow, as we
played our parts and went through our paces on the
stage of history, we at least succeeded in 61ving the
impression that we knew what we were doing and where
we are going. Dr. Solidum makes it all sound very con-
vincing: she has even convinced me.
This is one reason I find the book such fascinating
reading.
A word about the Southeast Asian Community: the
concept of a Southeast Asian Community is still a very
On behalf of the constituencies of the University of
the Philippines at Los Banos, I welcome you all to the
campus. Special greetings, I would add, are deserved by
the Jubilarians and other alumni who had to make special
trips to be here today. I know you will make today's
happy occasion an opportunity to pledge once again your
loyalty to the Alma Mater, to strengthen old friendships
and establish new ties.
Over the years, the celebration of Loyalty Day has
evolved into a very meaningful tradition at the U.P. at
Los Banos. Held to commemorate the patriotic act of the
faculty, employees, and students of the College of Agri-
culture who volunteered en masse in the Philippine Na-
tional Guard in 1918, its annual observance has become
an occasion for reaffirmation by the College alumni of
their resolve to be of ever greater service to the country.
In responding to the challenge of their time, the College
of Agriculture volunteers set a standard for responsive-
ness to the national need and welfare which has come
to distinguish the succeeding generations of Los Banos
graduates. Indeed, this responsiveness, as well as the
competence of the agriculture alumni, is well known.
Many have received honors and awards for outstanding
achievement and contribution in their respective fields of
endeavor.
The College of Agriculture alumni have unquestionably
played a vital role in the advancement of agricultural
science and technology in this country. However, this role
should now be viewed from a broader perspective j for
agricultural deevlopment must be related to the broader
goals and demands of national development. The th:me
of this year's celebration, "The New D.P. Los Banos:
A National Instrument for Agricultural and Rural De-
velopment," is therefore most propitious. _
The evolution of the D.P. at Los Banos as an auto-
nomous university has Increased its capability and poten-
tial as a center for integrated rural and agricultural
development, not only in the Philippines but also m
Southeast Asia. From the time of Dean Copeland to that
of Vice-P:resident Umali , the College of Agriculture steed
for in academic studies and for a problem-
oriented approach in research and extension that made
its activities directly relevant to the needs of our people,
especially the small farmers. With the 5-year
. iti ated and implemented under the dynamic
program tm . h
leadership of Dr. Dioscoro L. Umah, whom we onor
tender sapling. We have had two false starts, so far -
ASA and Maphilindo. Will ASEAN, our third, work at
last and survive?
We all hope, with Dr. Solidum, that it will. But it has
yet a long way to go. For, its success will depend, not on
the President, Prime Ministers and Foreign Ministers,
but on the people of the countries concerned, who have
yet to give convincing proof that they are capable of
acting as members of a community of nations with com-
mon interests powerful enough to make them live and
work together as neighbors.
today as the most outstanding alumnus, our University
at Los Banos acquired vastly improved physical facilities
and, above all, developed the greatest concentration of
agricultural and forestry expertise in the whole of South-
east Asia. With these substantial assets, we have raised
our sights.
The establishment of an autonomous University of the
Philippines at Los Banos has paved the way for more
program development and expansion. In the College of
Agriculture, curricular innovations and reforms, including
the reduction of the 5-year B.S.A. curriculum to 4 years,
have been adopted; a new department of horticulture has
been established; research and extension activities have
multiplied; and the area of the agricultural experiment
station has been increased by more than 150 per cent with
the acquisition of new lands under a Presidential Decree.
We have also seen the creation of the Graduate School
and the College of Sciences and Humanities and the
transfer from Diliman of the Agrarian Reform Institute.
Last June, the Board of Regents approved the establish-
ment of the Center for Policy and Development Studies.
And now, the proposed Institute of Human Ecology will
. soon bring to nine the total number of units directly under
our University at Los Banos.
I am aware that there are some who erroneously view
the steady expansion of the U.P. at Los Banos with
apprehension. To them, the setting up of any new unit
is a slicing off from the College of Agriculture and the
latter's corresponding loss of resources, powers, and re-
sponsibilities. I assure you that such is not the case.
while the core staffs of some new units came from the
College of Agriculture, their transfer from the latter
actually entailed mainly a reassignment of responsibilities
in the context of an expanding, autonomous university.
For instance, the creation of the College of Sciences and
Humanities placed under one umbrella, faculty members
with academic preparation and interests in the basic
sciences and the humanities to enable them to seek new
horizons that are otherwise beyond their reach were the
old set-up continued. The new College is responsible fOl
the general education courses which all students of the
University must take. It has instituted new degree pro-
grams and, this semester, it implemented the
Academic Program in the Sciences, the only such kind
of an honor-s.program in the country All help
to strengthen the UPLB base in the SOCIal, political, and

cultural areas so that more attention can be given to the
human variables involved in agro-induatrlnl and rural
development.
In like manner, every unit strives to develop itself to
its optimum capability, seeking ways of complementing
and supplementing the activities of its sister units. This
way, expansion becomes an integrative effort, and not a
divisive one. Every college or institute thus maintains and
enhances its role as a center of excellence hoth as an
individual unit and as an integral part of the U.P. at Los
Banos. Accordingly, the College of Agriculture will not
diminish in strength nor in its potential for further
growth. We will ensure that it remains the premier agri-
cultural college in the country and the Southeast Asian
region.
You will agree that the whole is equal to the sum
of its parts, and eevry part can be only as good as the
whole. The U.P. at Los Banos can only be as good as its
component colleges in the same manner that each college
can only be as good as the University of which it is a
part.
It has become very clear that many of our economic
and social problems are actually complex and are be-
coming more and more complex. Their solution requires
a holistic, interdisciplinary approach that calls for In-
sights from the various colleges, institutes, and depart-
ments of the University, In integrated rural development,
for example, there is need to relate agricultural produc-
tivity to population explosion, human settlements and
environmental pollution, as well as to values and attitudes.
I would like to stress that we at the U.P. at Los Banos
are committed to meet the growing demands of agri-
cultural and rural development in the context of the larger
physical and social milieu. More specifically, we aim to
create mutually reinforcing elements derived from an
interdisciplinary complement of knowledge and capability.
Acknowledging that in our complex world each has a
proper role to play in a symbiotic relationship, we pledge
our support of any effort that will give the Filipino farmer
a greater sense of achievement, security and dignity.
Once again, I wish you all a more meaningful Loyalty
Day.

THE PALMA CENTENNIAL CELEBRATION IN V.P.


By DR. TOMAS S. FONACIER
Chairman, Rafael Palma Centennial Committee
(Opening remarks at the Special University Convocation marking the centenary of the birth of Rafael Palma,
Fourth President of the University of the Philippines, at the Abelardo Hall Auditorium,
24 October 1974)
We are gathered here this morning on this 24th day
of October at these brief and simple ceremonies marking
the start of a round of activities to commemorate the
birth centennial of one of U.P.'s illustrious presidents-
Rafael Palma. It was on this day a hundred years ago
that President Palma was born in Tendo, Manila. He
served as Acting President in 1923-25, as President from
1 9 2 5 ~ 3 3 and, for many years before that, as a member
of the Board of Regents.
lowe President Palma an eternal debt of gratitude.
It was he who brought me into the faculty fifty years
ago almost to the date today. It was he who gave me
the encouragement and the opportunity to go abroad for
the Ph.D. degree without which my rise in the faculty
ladder would have been slower and longer in between. I
have always felt, therefore, that I was personally closer
to Palma than to any other President that I have had the
privilege to serve under or work with, as the case may
be. This is the reason why all this time I was sort of
on the look-out for this centennial day, so that ample pre-
parations to celebrate it could have been made earlier.
But the years went by so quickly and for some reason
or another the day escaped me, and I failed to realize
that this year is his birth centenary.
Fortunately, Chairman Esteban de Ocampo of the N a ~
tional Historical Commission wrote President Lopez. ask-
ing what plans the U.P. had to commemorate President
Palma's centenary. The President then sent a note to
Dr. Teodoro A. Agoncillo, our Rafael Palma Professor
of History, to seek his views and recommendations. In
his reply to the President, Dr. Agoncillo submitted a
number of welcome and well-considered suggestions which
the Centennial Committee took into account.
Of course, Dr. Agoncillo and Professor de Ocampo have
a little advantage over me. They are both in the Na-
tional Historical Commission and therefore continually
in touch and concerned with important historical events.
In my case, after I retired from the classroom several
years ago, I have been drawn into a quite different edu-
cational endeavor, i.e., I have been trying for the last
few years to educate the alumni to contribute to the Uni-
versity a small fraction of their hidden or unhidden
wealth. It is hard and tough work-this work of beg-
ging not for yonrself hut for the Alma Mater-but it
has its moments of satisfaction and reward.
Dr. Agoncillo suggested to the President that it would
be fitting and proper for the University to commemo-
rate the Palma centennial independently of whatever the
National Historical Commission had in mind by way of
celebrating it. I agree with him. After all he had accom-
plished for the University during the more than a decade
of his administration, President Palma deserves an in-
dependent University celebration. Accordingly, President
Lopez by Administrative Order No. 238 dated September
13, 1974, created the Rafael Palma Centennial Committee
"to consider and recommend a University program of
activities to commemorate the centenary of the birth of
Rafael Palma, fourth President of the University of the
Philippines, on October 24, 1974." The observance, accord-
ing to the President, should highlight his distinguished
career as a liberal thinker, writer, educator and national-
ist and focus attention on his life, career and character
for the emulation of our students and fellow citizens.
I was designated Chairman of the Committee. My claim
to this distinct honor rests primarily, I presume, on the
fact that I am probably the last surviving member of the

Palma during what the late Professor Cristina Jamias
described as the "Molave Period" in the history of the

some exchange of views the Committee recommended
the following comprehensive program of activities which
were approved in toto by President Lopez:

educational program there should ring true this clear-cut
question: fils this study, this method, this point of view,
of positive benefit to the Filipino people?" This dictum
also signifies that we should discuss our social and political
problems, or subject to observation and analysis those
subjects that are peculiar to our environment. We ought
to study preferentially our own things, not only for the
sake of keeping intact our love for what is our own and
of strengthening a feeling of patriotic pride, but also for
the sake of encouraging original thinking and of asserting
our individuality in the realm of the mind.
* ... ... 1/1
The State University has a bounden duty to help the
State in the solution of its problems. In a country which
is still in the springtide of life, as is the Philippines, the
worth of a university is increased a thousandfold. The
university is not only obliged to be the modern evangelist
preaching the gospel of the new knowledge, but is also
charged with the equally grave duty of exploring far
and wide in order to develop the national resources, in
order to study adequately the many problems which affect
agriculture and industry, in order to give form, meaning,
and solution to the social puzzles of man, as well as to
seek the answer to the moral and spiritual enigmas of
the age. Like the ancient oracle at Delphi, the University
should be willing and ready at all times to answer all
questions, to unveil the past, to counsel the present and
to predict the future.
'" * 01:
The conservation, diffusion, and advancement of science
and culture constitute the raison d'etre of every university.
So that the supreme ends of science may be freely sought
and the zeal of scrutiny and for truth-telling may be
secured against all molestation and persecution, the Uni-
versity is in dire need of the means and of that state of
independence and freedom which will lift it above petty
influence and mercenary ends.
* : '" :)
Like the State and the Church, the University is in a
field all its own. It is an institution which man has
established so that his insatiable thirst for knowledge may
be quenched. It is on the basis of this concept that the
influence and prestige of the great centers of learning
in all ages have rested. And even in countries where the
people groaned under the tyrant's yoke, the university
always succeeded in arousing and commanding great re-
spect by seeking and flaunting the truth in the face of
monarchs and hierarchs.
'" * '" t:
Let us have keen faith in this University. Let us put
forth every effort to extend its usefulness to all points in
the Philippines. Let us use every means to make this
University the worthy custodian of the patrimony we have
inherited from our forbears. Let us always strive to
administer the affairs of this university, not as a bureau-
cratic office, but as a Republic of Science and Letters,
"where the lonely scholar feels himself least lonely, most
positively furthered, most richly fed."
'" :t!: *
From the pamphlet entitled,
liThe Revolt of Youth", 1928
I do not see how we can extricate ourselves from this
age and go back several centuries to adjust cur conduct
to the ideas of our infancy.. , . It is absurd. We have
to forge ahead and not be afraid of change. It is a good
augury that we change, that our youth do not submit to
the restrictions and hindrances which the past has be-
queathed to us, that they endeavor to bring originality
into their thoughts and feelings and acquire new expe-
riences which have been denied us. After all, the youth
of today will be the citizens of tomorrow, and they have
the right to remodel the things which they find out of
place or out of step with the times. In this country we
are scared by any novelty, to such an extent that recently
certain works of art consisting of marble statues of naked
women were condemned as an offense against modesty.
I respect the feeling which has given rise to the indigna-
tion and protest of our women, but I think it is a gross
injustice to attribute to the imagination of the public such
perversity that it can no longer gaze upon nude statues
without hurting the modesty of Womanhood.
'" '* * '"
Thanks to the principle of individual liberty, it is now
well settled that a person is guided in the majority of
cases by the light of his own conscience; and that it would
be possible to create by means of education sufficient
internal restraints which shall serve as his safeguard and
the safeguard of others. Under the influence of such
an enlightened conscience a person may be left alone to
act in accordance with his own good impulses, without the
necessity of subjecting him to a reign of fear-a thing
which has characterized and which still characterizes all
systems of religion and government.
* '" * *
Youth ought to aspire to achieve a morality which is
more pure, less formalistic and less hypocritical. If in
order to attain this, it is necessary to revise all our ideas
and conceptions which have been transmitted to us for
centuries, the work is worth the effort. We are submerged
under a torrent of hypocrisies and conventionalisms which
do not permit us to distinguish between good and evil.
This is the result of our education which is based on
fear,
Educating the youth today demands a change in prin-
ciple and methods. We cannot educate the youth under
the tenets and doctrines bequeathed to us by our ancestors.
They represented an epoch and a world entirely different
from ours. To feed our youth with theories and beliefs
which have already lost their usefulness would be a gross
mistake. We cannot give to an adult only the amount
of food we give an infant, without imperilling his health.
Neither should we educate the youth of our day with the
body of knowledge possessed by our elders under social
conditions which were not only different from, but dia-
metrically opposed to those that obtain at present.
In the realm of education, the doctrine of individual
freedom has manifested itself in the elimination of the
old pructice-c-Qnod ma-gister dixit. The teacher is not
supposed to dogmatize. He has no longer the right to im-
pose on his pupils his own theories or personal beliefs.
He is expected to stimulate free discussion of the subject
he teaches, leaving to his students the choice of the sys-
tem of thought which best satisfies their reason.

From the speech entitled,


"Our Country", 1926
OUf country is one of the most beautiful and most
poetic in the world. Her geographical composition is
unique. There is no other nation that can boast of such
a variegated group of islands. Her insular situation,
which to many is a source of weakness, is to her rather
an element of strength, because it protects her from the
intrigues and quarrels of neighbors, and she may thus
devote herself to the untrammeled development of her civi-
lization. OUf country's scenic panoramas consisting of vast
plains canopied by the blue heavens and studded with
verdant hills are wonderful to behold and have nothing
to envy in the most famous vistas of the world. Her
salutary and equable climate, her permanent vegetation,
the absence of extremes of heat and cold, allow the
inhabitants to work and harvest throughout the year.
Her homogeneous race presents different stages of civili-
zation, from the most primitive to the most advanced.
The harmonious living together of people belonging to
distinct religious sects whose proximity elsewhere has
always been a source of conflict, is singularly interesting.
* * .. *
This is our country, not because we have conquered her
or bought her, nor yet because we exercise sovereignty
over her-for we are subject to another sovereign-
but because Nature has placed us in this land of ours;
we have received her as a legacy from our forbears; we
have built her and fashioned her; we have fought for her
and only by superior force has she been seized from our
hands. She is ours not to alienate, not to sell, not to
destroy, but to conserve, to advance, to transmit intact
and under better conditions of prosperity to our descen-
dants. Through neglect or misfortune we have lost for a
time the right to rule her destinies, to govern her to our
satisfaction; but it is for this very reason that we
should love her, should make her more happy, and render
greater sacrifice for her in order to better her condition.
We should address ourselves more diligently to the study
of her history, her government, her institutions, so that
we may know in what manner we may serve her more ef-
fectively.
From the speech entitled
"Our History", 1929
"re cannot strengthen our economic life until we free
the great mass of citizens from the attitude of indif-
ference which keeps them satisfied with the hand-to-
mouth existence of a miserable life. We should arouse in
them pride in economic advancement and show them the
way to salvation in the acquisition of lands which should
serve as the foundation of their well-being and should in
time place them in the rank of independent farmers. Un-
less we interest the masses in improving their status,
the structure of our economic development will be weak
at its foundation, because the masses everywhere consti-
tute the strength upon which the prosperity and greatness
of any nation rest. There is need of opening their. minds
to the advantages of modern life, and of presenting be-
fore them a higher standard of living, a higher measure
of prosperity which they should attain for their own as
well as their country's good.
From the biography of Rizal entitled,
"The Pride of the Malay Race", 1938
What is most admirable in Rizal is his complete self-
denial, his complete abandonment of his personal interests
in order to think only of those of his country. He could
have been whatever he wished to be, considering his na-
tural endowments; he could have earned considerable
sums of money from his profession; he could have lived
relatively rich, happy, prosperous, had he not dedicated
himself to public matters. But in him the voice of
the species Was stronger than the voice of personal
progress, or of private fortune, and he preferred to live
far from his family and to sacrifice his personal affec-
tions for an ideal he had dreamed of. He heeded not his
brother, not even his parents, beings whom he respected
and venerated so much, in order to follow the road his
conscience had traced for him.
'" .. '" *
Our people generally forget that they lose their individ-
ual independence the moment they submit their conscience
to the conscience of another and renounce thinking for
themselves. Rizal desired liberty for his people, not in
form but in substance. For him true liberty was obtained
"by exalting the intelligence and the dignity of the indi-
vidual, loving justice, right, and greatness, even to the
extent of dying for them, and when a people reaches
that height, God will provide a weapon."
* '" *
Liberty is of no value so long as the people submit to
the tyranny of an individual or group, so long as they
have insufficient energy to proclaim their rights and to
guarantee them with their sacrifices and with their
own blood, so long as they wrap themselves up in their
egotism and, instead of giving expression to the protests
of their conscience, content themselves with praising the
most iniquitous acts. As Rizal said: "Why grant liberty
to such men? With Spain or without Spain they would
always be the same, and perhaps worse. Why indepen-
dence, if the slaves of today will be the tyrants of
tomorrow?"
Rizal was right. Liberty rests not on the mere absence
of external restraints but on the conscience of the indi-
vidual. The individual is not free so long as he does not
understand that liberty is essential to his life and does
not even know how to defend it and avoid being des-
poiled of it. Independence has not made the inhabitants
of the South American republics free; they merely passed
from one tyranny to another. The same thing may hap-
pen to the Philippines if the Filipinos are not vigilant.
.. '" .. *
Glory to Rizal! In him are typified the best qualities
of our race. He elevated the concept of our country before
the world because all his life he demonstrated a sincere
desire to work for the good of others; he had no ambition
for glory or fame, nor did he expect rewards and
pense from anybody. From that same spiritu.al
between him and ourselves, we have the r-ight to believe
that in each of us there is a possible Rizal and that what
he has done is within our power if we exert the
effort, the same means of action and the devotJo.n
to duty that he displayed in the most heroic acts of hIS
life.

From the book,
"Historia de Filipinas", 1935
(The following excerpts were translated from the Spanish
by Salvador P. Lopez)
Beginning in 1406 Chinese annals describe a series of
visits made by various Malay sovereigns to the court of
China.... Ambassadors' from Pangasinan in Luzon as
well as from Brunei in Borneo were sent to China that
year. In 1408 the kings of Pangasinan and Brunei them-
selves personally journeyed to China. They were well
received and entertained, and were presented valuable
gifts by the Emperor. In 1417, three kings of Sulu
travelled together to the court of China, bringing their
families with them as well as their local chiefs numbering
more than 340 persons. It is said that they presented to
the Emperor a letter with characters engraved in gold,
as well as precious pearls, rare shells, and other articles.
* * *
The Spanish colonization gave the Filipinos no opportu-
nity to manage their own affairs. Since Spain herself
was ruled by an absolute monarchy, the political system
implanted in the Philippines was inevitably patterned
after Spanish political institutions. The absolute monarch,
through his ministers and functionaries, governed the
colony, and the people were regarded as a mass that had
to be directed from above-for its own welfare and
happiness.
* *
More than anything else, what precipitated the Revolu-
tion of 1896 was the deepening sense of tension, the wor-
sening crisis caused by the deportations and abuses to
which Filipinos were subjected. Life became insupporta-
ble, there was no freedom of expression, and vexations and
punishments were the order of the day. . . . The Re-
formists, with their pacifist ideas, continued to hope for
better days for the country. But the common people, who
had until then taken no part in the political movement,
began to act. There was a resurgence of the spirit of the
ancient bara,ngay, and the masses, convinced of the futil-
ity of reforms, separated from the Reformists and rallied
around the most formidable clandestine organization in
all Philippine history. The Katipunan was born.
when the United States of America proclaimed its
sovereignty over the Islands, the Filipino national spirit
exploded in resistance, and a new war broke out which
involved the country as a whole. More than at any other
time) the Filipinos were united; not only were all the
regions of the country involved, but even the affluent
elements took part in the struggle. Although the Pili-
pinos were compelled to accept defeat) the ideal of inde-
pendence for which they had fought was never eradicated
from their hearts. Soon after the pacification of the
country, their representatives never ceased to agitate and
work loyally for the realization of the ideal of indepen-
dence.
... ... . ...
One of the dangers to Philippine society is the possible
intrusion of Japan.... But the policy of over-expansion
is not to Japan's advantage) for history shows that exces-
sive expansion eventually weakens a nation. Thus, Spain
in her time expanded to the Occident as well as to the
Orient, and its decline as a power began with its first
colonial conquests. . . . The Japanese should understand
that the Filipinos will never renounce their sovereignty
without a fight) and even if conquered, a spirit of rebel-
lion will subsist which could only be suppressed through
the permanent installation of troops in every island
of the archipelago. Thus, the conquest of the Islands
would be extremely costly for Japan.

In government and politics, the new tendency is towards
a major concentration of power in the hands of the State.
The Filipino has always been accustomed to the idea that
the government is responsible for everything: a kind
of Providence which oversees the welfare of each and
every citizen. In spite of the spirit of individualism
inculcated by American education, little progress has
been achieved in making of every Filipino an independent
human being, because he is confident that the government
will attend to his happiness. Rarely do the citizens dare to
demand the right to direct the conduct of public affairs;
instead they let the government direct the action of the
citizen. This notion of the of the State.
constitutes a grave danger to democracy in our country.
If it should happen that he who exercises authority
is a man of unscrupulous principles, such a man could es-
tablish himself as a dictator who recognizes no law or
restraints until the citizens succeed in making their
power and rights prevail by changing the government.

"The University and Politics"

The separation of the University from politics is a
doctrine and a practice recognized in every land in modern
times. Even in Europe where the universities appear to
be mere administrative agencies of the government, the
freedom of their faculties to speak on every knowable
and unknowable subject) even though their norm of crt-
teria runs counter to the politics of the government, has
been universally recognized and respected. True, the
University depends upon the State for its maintenance
but this dependence is predicated upon the duty of the
State towards the furtherance and dissemination of knowl.

special Act, granting it a charter and all the necessary

When in the midst of popular silence imposed often
by the mandate of political leaders, the word of the pro-
fessor who is tied down by political and social convention-

many a time as the protector of human liberty, tempora-
rily threatened, and as the beacon-light that guides the
populace in its most sober decisions over the momentous
questions of the day.

the truth, because of fear of persecution or displeasure
of the men in power, then truth would not come out from
his lips or will be totally disfigured. And when that time
comes, the University would be nothing more than a
mere political agency of the men in power instead of being
a citadel of learning, unafraid to reveal the truth as its

an atmosphere of freedom and tranquility, completely
isolated from the turmoil of politics. It was officially
approved science which killed Galileo and retarded the
program of geography for more than a century. It was
also official science which led to the burning of books

From the speech e"titled,
"The University and the People", 1931
The university has survived through the centuries.
Empires have risen and fallen and each in its heyday
made but a transitory impress upon mankind. But the
university has maintained its place in the life of nations,
so that today it is the oldest institution of civilization.
It has always been the heart and center of national move-
ments-whether it be the Reformation in Germany, the
Revolution in France, Communism in Russia, ParIia-
mentarianism in Japan, or Nationalism in Young China.
It is akin to the needs and aspirations of the nation, for
it enhances the love for liberty-liberty of speech, liberty
of conscience, liberty of teaching and learning. It offers
a deeper foundation of national affairs than politics.
Since it is the source of enlightenment of the individual,
which is the unit of the nation, the university is the
soul of the nation itself.
outlook, the breadth of his interests was co-extensive with
life itself. Though he spoke and wrote on an enormous
variety of topics in the fields of politics, economics, public
affairs, education, history, and biography, the focus of
his thought and purpose was always the same: like Rizal
whom he deeply admired, he was forever the teacher tire-
lessly exhorting the Filipino people to be true to the
traditions of their race, to be loyal to the dreams of
their heroes, to love their country and to cherish liberty
with all their hearts, and to suffer, fight and die for
them, if necessary.
Poring over the writings of Rafael Palma has been
for me a richly rewarding experience. For me as a mem-
ber of the Palma generation - the "molave generation"
of the University - it has been an act of rediscovery
and renewal, rediscovery as of an ancient sprtng whose
waters have virtue to refresh the mind and rainvigorate
the spirit. He speaks to all of us with the unmistakable

Or even quaint. This "derives from the fact that like the
prophets of the Old Testament, he is unyielding in the
cause of truth and liberty, as well as inflexible in his
condemnation of opportunism and expediency. Yet, the
bent of his intellect is always refreshingly modern, libe-
ral and universalist, resembling in this respect another
Filipino scholar whom he also greatly admired - Trini-
dad H. Pardo de Tavera.
For me, a student of the University when Rafael Pal-
ma was president, who never even dreamed that one day
forty years later he would find himself walking humbly
in Palma's giant footsteps and sitting overawed in his
chair of academic authority, it is particularly gratifying
to have been given this unique opportunity, on the cen-
tenary of his birth, to pay tribute to his memory and
to help make it green in the minds and hearts of those
for whom he labored so hard to build this institution -
to use his own words - into a great "University of the
people and for the people."
THE pmLIPPINES UNDER MARTIAL LAW
By SALVADOR P. LOPEZ
President, University of the Philippines
(Lecture delivered on 30 October 1974 under the au.spices of the East-West Center, Honolulu, Ha,waii, as part
of the Dillingham Lecture Series, established to provide an internationa,l toruov for the discussion of issues and
problems vital to mutual understanding and exchange between the Orient and the Occident)
The concern which many Americans feel over recent
events in the Philippines is understandably lively and
even solicitous. A country they had reared in the ways
of democracy for nearly half a century has suddenly
taken the authoritarian road like most of Asia. They
can understand why other countries with little or no
democratic experience or tradition should become au-
thoritarian or even totalitarian - but the Philippines!
What made forty million Filipinos, among the most
literate in Asia and accustomed for nearly three quarters
of a century to the lusty wevs of a freewheeling demo-
cracy, docilely accept one September day in 1972 the
indefinite suspension of normal constitutional government
and the curtailment of their civil and political rights'!
'Vas Philippine democracy so fragile that it could be
toppled not by a show of armed force but by a mere
Presidential proclamation'! What ever happened to the
"show-window of American democracy in Asia"'!
To answer these questions and explain the meaning
of recent events in the Philippines is not an easy task.
The Filipino is often his own -worst enemy, possessing
an extreme sensitiveness as well as a species of self-
hatred characteristic of the colonized consciousness-
qualities which manifest themselves in an immoderate
desire to please others and be accepted by them. He
thus tends, quite unintentionally, to falsify reality in his
desire to tell the world what he thinks it wants to hear.
Not in black-and-while terms
In this lecture, I will not be telling you what I think
you want to hear. My hope is that, by placing events
in context and giving the facts as objectively as possible,
I might help you to understand better the situation in
the Philippines. I do not pretend to be unbiased; I am
a liberal, and liberalism is itself a bias. But, from life-
long habit I try not to interpret reality in black-and-white
terms; I presume that nuances exist in the observation
of fact as well as in the perception of truth. I am not
a fanatic of the absolute.
Let me, then, describe certain aspects of life in the
Philippines under martial law, as I see them.
Within the first few hours after the announcement
by President Ferdinand E. Marcos in the evening of
September 23, 1972 that two days before, on September
21st, he had signed Proclamation No. 1081 declaring a
state of martial law in the Philippines, the sole television
station that had been permitted to resume operations
began broadcasting hourly assurances that the President
had issued the proclamation "to save the Republic and
to reform Society." ,
The assumption that the Republic needed saving and
that Philippine society required reformation is not open
to doubt. The instability of Philippine society, only partly
concealed by a flamboyant political system, had become
obvious in the turbulent first years of this decade when
all the crises simmering beneath the surface of society
seemed to have come to a boil- all "at once. Factionalism,
fragmentation, and extreme partisanship dominated the
policy-making process of government, while the conduct
of public affairs was vitiated by the inordinate politics
of patronage and clientage. Massive and often violent
student demonstration'> had drawn attention to the ills
of a society that seemed unwilling or unable to change.
Public tension was fed by a series of seemingly senseless
acts of violence as well as by clandestine acts of dissidence
and rebellion. Private armies - groups of armed men in
the pay of the rich and powerful- proliferated; govern-
ment officialdom had become not only indifferent to the
clamor of the people but behaved in many instances as
if it was their enemy. Unemployment grew steadily while
the rate of inflation rose steeply, its effects being felt
most acutely among the poor. All these fed the fires of a
seething rebellion that had begun to assume national pro-
portions.
Wa'\oc of anger and outruge
In August 1971, in what seemed to be the culmination
of a long series of outrages, the opposition Liberal Party's
proclamation rally for its senatorial and municipal can-
didates was bombed in Manila's Plaza Miranda, the Hyde
Park of the Philippines. The leading figures of the opposi-
tion were injured, many of them seriously, while dozens
of spectators were either maimed or killed. A great wave
of anger and outrage swept the nation. There was pro-
found disgust over a political system that could spawn
and tolerate such a senseless crime. Despair drove many
people to the conclusion that political and social change
could no longer be achieved by peaceful means.

OCTOBER 31, 1974

Marcos responded to the crisis by suspending


the pt'ivilege of the writ of habeas corpus. The arrest of
several individuals which followed was regarded by some
as a "red herring" intended to divert attention from the
bombing itself to the purported existence of a leftist
conspiracy. The President nevertheless acted with re-
straint j the expected mass arrests did not take place, and
most of those arrested were subsequently released. The
President restored the privilege of the writ in January
1972 and declared the period of emergency over. But the
episode left the clear impression that time Was running
out on the existing political system, and that unless
something was done to avert the nation's rapid descent
into chaos, it could only look to an uncertain future riven
by civil strife.
Though 1972 began with the lifting of the suspension
of the privilege of the writ of habeas corpus, it was
soon to reveal itself as a year of deepening crisis. The
conditions of widespread poverty and misery were further
aggravated by the devastation wrought by the torrential
rains of July and August. An unprecedented number of
typhoons pummelled the archipelago in 1972; the moun-
tains denuded by years of unscrupulous logging funnelled
millions of tons of water into the lowland and almost
instantly the rice-lands upon which the Filipinos depend
for their survival were under several feet of water, mud
and silt.
Sense of urgency and helplessness
While all this was happening, the Government an-
nounced its discovery of a shipment of arms, purportedly
destined for the New People's Army, which the Armed
Forces of the Philippines had intercepted at Digoyo Point,
Isabela, already known as a proto-base area of the revolu-
tionary movement. As if to lend credence to the revelation,
a series of bombings took place in the Greater Manila
Area during August and the first three weeks of Septem-
ber, as well as an attempted ambush of the Secretary of
National Defense.
The tension between a terrible sense of urgency and
an overwhelming sense of helplessness in coping with
forces difficult to identify can well be imagined. It seemed
as if a great pall of doom had descended upon the land.
Housewives queued up at grocery stores to stock up
on food supplies, and the exclusive enclaves of the rich
doubled their guards. There was talk of imminent revolu-
tion. The newspapers with their lurid headlines and
candid photographs reflected confusion, anguish, and de-
spair. The Philippines seemed to tremble on the edge of
an abyss. The doomsday language used by William Butler
Yeats in describing the world as he saw it fifty years ago,
could well be applied to the Philippines:
Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned j
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.
Transforming Philippine society
It was in this situation that President Marcos pro-
claimed martial law. After the first momentary shock,
the public seemed willing to accept his assurance that.
his decision was motivated by the desire to save the
Republic and reform Philippine society. People clung to
the hope that there would finally be an end to the
uncertainty and strife that had characterized life in the
Philippines since the beginning of the decade. It seemed
to many of them that the temporary loss of a few free-
doms, dramatized by the imposition of curfew hours,
the closure of schools and newspapers, and the silence
of the radio and television stations, would be a small
price to pay for this.
The people were prepared to accept the need for
radical social change. For hundreds of years the society
had rested upon an iniquitous and exploitative economic
system. Known as the land tenancy system, it had re-
mained pract-ically undisturbed during forty years of
American rule because the colonial power was in virtual
alliance with the native oligarchy. After indenendence
in 1946, the oligarchy became even more firmly e;trenched
in power. Controlling most of the 'wealth of the nation
and all the levels of privilege and authority, they used
these to debauch the democratic institutions of the Re-
public.
Now, it seemed as if President Marcos was finally
going to use the power the people had placed in his
hands in re-electing him to break that vicious circle and
bring about by peaceful means the transformation of
Philippine society. He was offering an alternative to the
bloody strife which the revolutionaries paradoxically in-
sisted was the only road to peace.
Quick succession of reforms
Almost immediately, this widespread hope seemed amply
justified. The crime rate, which had earned for Manila
its reputation as the Oriental version of Chicago of the
Al Capone era, dropped dramatically during the first weeks
of martial law. President Marcos ordered the confiscation
of all unlicensed firearms and restricted those that were
licensed to the homes of the holders. He decreed the re-
organization of the government and the summary dis-
missal of employees with records of graft, corruption
and inefficiency. Customs and tax collections trebled.
City streets once practically impassable with garbage
were cleaned up. At the same time the disbandment of
private armies proceeded apace; members of various
crime syndicates were rounded up, and the military re-
ported successes in the campaign against the dissidents
in Luzon and the secessionist rebels in the South.
By decree President Marcos declared the entire country
a land reform area. He seemed to have grasped the
true nature of the Philippine problem when he stated
that the entire reform program of the martial law regime
was founded upon land reform. He ordered the redistribu-
tion of land to the landless, so that close to 180,000 former
tenant farmers have now received certificates of transfer
of ownership. Meanwhile, the public works and infra-
structure development program proceeded at a rapid pace,
exemplified most recently by the inauguration of the
Pantabangan Dam which will irrigate. over 80,000 hectares
186 V.P. GAZETTE VOL. V, No. 10
in Central Luzon. Agricultural production, but food prod.
uction in particular, was pushed with vigor by various
means, including a requirement that commercial banks
allocate 25 percent of their portfolios for this purpose.
Innovation and progress
In the highly sensitive area of education he has seized
the nettle of the language controversy by decreeing a
bilingual policy, or the use of English and the national
language Filipino as media of instruction in all schools.
For the first time ever, high school students must now
pass a national entrance test before they can go to college,
and a program is underway to eliminate diploma mills
and courses not relevant to national development. In yet
another field, he has boldly taken Philippine foreign policy
out of the long shadow of the cold war. While preserving
our special relations of friendship and alliance with the
United States, he has decreed the establishment of diplo-
matic relations with the Socialist States of Eastern
Europe; today. the Philippines is on the verge of conclud-
ing formal ties of recognition with the People's Republic
of China and the Soviet Union.
In short, whether it be in agriculture and natural re-
sources, in business and industry, in commerce and public
works, in taxation and finance, in education and culture,
or in foreign affairs, indeed, in almost any field one can
name, innovative reform is being achieved in a manner
and at a rhythm that would have been impossible before
martial law.
I have dwelt at some length on these matters because
there seems to be a view current abroad that President
Marcos is motivated solely by the desire to perpetuate
himself in power. The fact, however, is that he has taken
certain bold steps to solve the serious problems that beset
the nation and to bring about a new order, a New Society,
in the Philippines. Such a new order, however, is not
possible without an internal revolution which transforms
men into beings who care for each other and strive for
the common welfare. That this has not yet been accom-
plished in the Philippines should surprise no one; such a
transformation takes time. Here, indeed, lies the real test
of the martial law regime: whether, within a reasonable
span of time, conditions could be created that would make
possible the transformation of the Filipino into a better
human being.
The right ot revolution
No government, regardless of form, is exempt from
the classic dilemma posed by Abraham Lincoln: whether
a government must of necessity be "too strong for the
liberties of the people or too weak to maintain its own
existence." President Marcos has seized both horns of
the dilemma. He is acting in accordance with his own
dictum that "the right to rebel is an elemental' human
right, just as the right to repress rebellion is an elemental
public right."
Under martial law, he is using the coercive powers of
the State in accordance with this principle. Yet, the
regime is being sustained not alone by the use of force
but also by the passive support of a people buoyed by
the hope that the reforms now underway would bring
about a better life for all. 'When this hope disappears and
passive support turns into active opposition no regime,
whatever the number of its battalions, can last for long.
President Marcos has explained that he intended, by
declaring martial law, to forestall a violent revolution.
The alternative of a peaceful "democratic revolution"
which he has chosen assumes that the people have the
courage and ability to correct the evils that have long
plagued Filipino life: the greed and selfishness, the graft
and corruption, the irresponsibility and anarchy, the crime
and violence - evils which have been tolerated as the
inevitable concomitants of a system based on freedom and
democracy.
Although many dramatic improvements have been
achieved since martial law, the danger of backsliding is
real, and there are signs of such backsliding even now.
Filipino society, which has been sick for a long time, has
just passed through a dangerous crisis and is on the way
to recovery. But this is precisely the moment when the
threat of a relapse that could lead to mortal danger is
greatest.
Freedom with responsibility
Time, then, is what the New Society needs. How much
time? On the one hand, the reforms need time to take
deep root so that the process of amelioration shall be-
come irreversible. On the other hand, the Filipinos have
been nourished on freedom so long that any attempt
to reduce them to a condition of contented servitude is
bound to fail. In his political testament, Today's Revolu-
tion - Democracn, President Marcos quotes with approval
Benedetto Croce's observation that "history is the story
of liberty," and he would agree that the history of the
Philippines is the story of the Filipino's tireless striving
for liberty. Insofar as the Filipinos may be said to have
developed an ideology of their own, this would be the
ideology of freedom. It runs unbroken through their
history like a crimson thread.
There should be no question therefore of permanently
depriving the Filipino people of their rights and freedoms.
They will not tolerate it. But they would agree on the
imperative need to establish a New Society based on
freedom with responsibility and liberty with discipline,
order without regimentation and authority without tyran-
ny; that is, a compromise between the integrity of indivi-
dual life and the imperatives of collective existence.
The Filipinos are running a race with catastrophe.
For, it is far easier to lose freedom without bloodshed
than to regain freedom without bloodshed. One should
never assume that people who are willing to sacrifice
freedom and democracy for the sake of necessary reforms
are prepared to bear the sacrifice indefinitely. Quiescence
is not necessarily synonymous with tranquility, nor ac-
quiescence with affirmation. The crucial problem, there.
fore, is to determine the precise point at which the
sacrifice ceases to be supportable and grievances become
explosive -. the point, in other words, at which the re-
stitution of civil liberties and the restoration of repre-
sentative government become imperative.
Let no one deny it: our political system, our economic
system, indeed. the national society as a whole has re-
quired the double therapy of deep purgation and shock
treatment. But such radical therapy is not without risk,

and care must be taken to ensure that the deep-seated


vices are eradicated without killing the patient.
Curtailment of Freedoms
Many of the rights which Filipinos once enjoyed have
been curtailed. Freedom of the press as they once knew
it no longer exists - the near-licentious mass media of
the pre-martial law period have been replaced by a press,
radio and television that blare forth their diurnal message
in a depressing kind of mental and verbal monotone.
Strikes and demonstrations are prohibited, and gatherings
with an unknown or doubtful political purpose are not
encouraged. In detention centers around the country are
kept hundreds of people at any given time - one of them
is former opposition Senator Benigno S. Aquino, Jr.-
some facing no specific charges and all detained for an
indeterminate period. Representative government has
yielded to "constitutional authoritarianism", and the su-
preme power of legislation and execution are concentrated
in the hands of the President. The periodic elections
required by law have not been held; instead, plebiscites
or referendums on specific issues are held at the pleasure
of the President. Military tribunals have been established.
Academic freedom in the universities has been constrained.
There is much to regret in all of this. In particular,
the policy of arbitrary arrest and detention has created
a climate of fear which in the long run must deter people
from active involvement in the solution of the nation's
problems. Yet, national development cannot be left to the
military and the technocrats alone; it requires the mobil-
ization of the intelligence and creative energies of all.
Prolonged repression tends to erode the support of the
people and constrains them to remain silent when their
voice most needs to be heard. Because the latent energies
of the people can be fully released only in a condition
of political freedom, it is imperative that their constitu-
tional rights and liberties be restored sooner or later-
preferably sooner rather than later.
Unduly prolonged, a regime of martial law soon be-
comes counter-productive. The holders and beneficiaries
of emergency power, seduced by the attractions of un-
restrained authority, may soon come to believe that the
delegation of power to them is permanent. The absence
of traditional checks and balances tends to encourage
corrupt practices and abuse of authority. Because of
its vital role in martial law, the military may develop
certain inclinations and interests that could eventually
dilute its attachment to the Republic and the Constitution.
Heritage of all mankind
Some people regard the restoration of these rights as
unimportant, perhaps even unwise. They say, ,f.or
that the Bill of Rights embodied in the Philippine Con-
stitution of 1935 (taken almost word for word from the
American Constitution) and retained in the Constitution
of 1973 has no relevance to the Filipino experience.
According to this view, the rights the EngliSh
b rene wrested from King John in the thir-teenth century
are remote from the realities of Philippine life in the
twentieth century. I am not eertain whether this is an
official view _ and one must doubt this since Prestd,ent
Marcos strongly supported the approval of the Constftu-
tion of 1973- bnt if it is,' then it becomes all the mar.
necessary to refute and reject it utterly.
The rights won by the English barons, later confirmed
and enlarged by the American and the French Revolu-
tions - as well as by the Philippine Revolution - repre-
sent hard-fought victories of the human spirit; they form
part of a priceless heritage which belongs to all mankind.
Freedom and tyranny have no nationality; both have
recurred in all ages and climes, in all cultures and
civilizations.
Jose Rizal, the national hero of the Filipinos, wrote
in his Letter to the Women of Mclolos : "Men are born
equal, naked and without chains. They were not created
by God to be enslaved, neither were they endowed with
Intelligence in order to be misled, nor adorned with reason
to be fooled by others."
I do not therefore hold with those who say that while
l esterns forms of liberal democracy may be appropriate
for Europeans and Americans, they are not suited to
Africans, Latin Americans, and Asians, including Fili-
pinos, Far more sound is the principle embodied in the
Charter of the United Nations and spelled out in the
Universal Declaration of Human Rights: Everyone is
entitled to human rights and fundamental freedoms with-
out distinction as to race, sex, language or religion.
A variant of this argument consists of the assertion
than an over-emphatic insistence on rights tends to im-
pede progress in a developing country like the Philippines.
Civil and political rights, it is argued, are of little value
to people who are mainly concerned with the daily problem
of survival; after all, they cannot eat the Constitution,
and freedom for many of them means little more than
the right to sleep under a leaking shanty or nipa hut.
Two questions, however, arise: first, what guarantee is
there when a man gives up his liberties in exchange for
a bowl of rice, that he will get what he paid for? Secondly,
does not the transaction presuppose on the part of those
who govern an improbable omniscience and infallibility?
Criticism and cppcsitlon
The assumption behind these questions is that no man
can be trusted to do all by himself what is right and
just for the people, or to know the correct answers to
all the problems of the nation. This is the whole basis
of the democratic challenge to the divine right of kings.
It may be eaaier to govern a country without opposition
from a recalcitrant Congress or criticism by an obstreper-
ous press, but it is also easier to misgovern without them.
Discussion and debate are of value to any society,
if only because human knowledge is always incomplete
and human beings are fallible. As Montesquieu pointed
out long ago, no government can survive on the basis
of the isolation of the ruler from the ruled or of the
citizens from each other. Such a system negates the
essential condition of all forms of political organization,
namely, the need of the ruler and the ruled, and. the
citizens among themselves, for acting and speaking to-
gether.
This is not to say that Western institutions can or
should be imported and adopted unchanged in the
pines or anywhere else. In fact, virtually all the politdcal,
economic, social and cultural influences that have come
188 D.P. GAZETTE VOL. V,No; 10
to the Philippine. from the West have suffered a charac-
teristic transmutation; a sea change. Thus, our political
institutions - political parties and party conventions,
elections and electoral campaigns, the Presidency, Con-
gress, the judiciary, etc. - are not quite like their
analogues in the United States; they have developed a
kind of tropical lushness and extravagance. Yet, there can
be no doubt that the Filipinos are capable of devising
a democratic polity well suited to their nature, needs and
aspirations.
'Martial law Philippine st)'Ie"
The present martial law regime is itself an example
of the adaptive capacity of the Filipino. Thousands of
people have been arrested, detained and then released;
There appears to be no deliberate policy of physical
torture, and no political prisoner has been executed. The
military is firmly under civilian control, and there -is a
noticeable absence of uniformed authority in the streets
or public places.
Incredulous foreign observers have dubbed it "martial
law Philippine style". It is, indeed, peculiarly Philippine
in that, contrary to the American practice, martial rule
co-exists with, and is subject to civilian authority. Martial-
law in the Philippines -may have certain affinities with
the dictatorships of ancient Rome, but little if any with
those of recent or contemporary history. In ancient Rome,
however, the rule of the dictator was rigorously limited
to six months.
If President Marcos is a dictator, he is not ruthless
enough to be an effective one. I suspect that he is a
crypto-demoerat - an authoritarian who can not quite get
over his democratic upbringing.
There are signs that a general relaxation if not revo-
cation of martial law may be imminent. On August 24
last, President Marcos virtually disauthorized a police
raid on a Catholic seminary near Manila and ordered
the immediate release of several priests and nuns who
had been detained on suspicion of being engaged in
subversion. On September 11, his birthday anniversary,
he ordered the release of five prominent political pri-
soners, including former Senator Jose W. Diokno. On
October 5, he reduced the jurisdiction of the military
tribunals and restored that of the civil courts. On Octo-
ber 13, he granted amnesty to twenty-seven leaders of
the Communist Party of the Philippines who had volun-
tarily surrendered. On October 26 he abolished the Bu.
reau- of Standards for Mass Media, explaining that con-
ditions in the _press had sufficiently improved to make
government intervention unnecessary.
These signs of possible relaxation cannot but encourage
those who, while supporting the reform program, are
troubled. by the thought of the exorbitant cost in violence
and bloodshed which the nation may be asked to pay for
it.
It is, however, too early to say whether President Mar-
cos is ready to lead the nation on the long road back
to a democratic polity. Since he has repeatedly stated that
martial law -ie a "temporary constitutional expedient"
and that he is running a race with .ttme, there .Ie at
least .. reason to hope that the - Philippines, might. avoid
the disastrous consequences which in other countries
have come in the wake of .the imposition and subsequent
overthrow of authoritarian regimes.
On the other hand, there are signs also of a growing
restiveness among the people arising in part from the
adoption of policies crucially affecting the country's
future without prior public discussion and consultation,
and partly from the worsening economic situation which
is seriously eroding one of the regime's principal claims
to public support. This restiveness extends to the armed
forces whose discontent with present policies governing
military operations against the Muslim rebellion in the
South is well known.
Dismantling martial law
A deliberate policy to lift martial law is clearly in
order. This would require, first, that all political prison-
ers not facing eriminal : charges be released and those
facing such charges be speedily brought to trial. This
would restore one of the greatest of all human rights:
the right to be immune from arbitrary arrest and deten-
tion.
Next, a measure of press freedom must be restored.
Neither the regime of licentious media before martial
law nor the regime of controlled media under martial
law is tolerable for long. Fortunately, our choice need
not be limited to one or. the other. We can have a press
that avoids the excess of licentiousness as well as the
extremity- of State control, something patterned on the
British model of self-regulating media. Press, radio and
television would operate without prior censorship or
other external constraints, but would be subject to cor-
rective measures in accordance with guidelines previous-
ly accepted by the media themselves. I specify the British
system of press freedom because we cannot afford the
American one.
The revival of a free press is central to the restoration
of civil and political liberty. It is as indispensable as an
elective legislature to the establishment of a just, respon-
sible and democratic society wherein, to use the words
of President Marcos himself, "government and people
are joined together by the principle of consent" and
"political authority is accountable to the people." Only
by being free can the media enhance their own credibility
and perform the vitalfunction of discussion and criticism
which justifies their existence-a function which be-
comes all the more important the longer the revival of
representative government is deferred.
An extraordinary remedy
I know of no Filipino who yearns for the return of
the old Congress, but the convocation of the Interim
Assembly and the holding of elections cannot be inde-
finitely postponed. One may buy a little time by exper-
imenting with new political expedients like the Citizens
Assemblies or reviving archaic forms of social organiza-
tion like the barangay, but in the end the processes
ordained in the Constitution must be observed. Elections
must be held. What time remains might be better spent
in devising measures that would immunize .thenew Na-
tional Assembly from the worst vices of the old Congress i.
selfishness and- greed, graft end , corruption, Irreepon-.
sibility and abuse of power:

OCTOBER 31, 1974 D.P. GAZEl'TE 189

Apolinario Mabini, the brain, of the Philippine Revo-


lution, wrote in The True Decalogue: "Do not reeognize
in your country the authority of any person not elected
by you and your fellow-citizens ... the person designated
and proclaimed by the individual consciences of the whole
people is the only one who should wield the real au-
thority."
The regime of martial law is, of course, constitutional;
but it is constitutional only in the sense that it is an ex-
traordinary remedy provided for in the Constitution,
not to be availed of except "in case of invasion, insur-
rection, or rebellion, or imminent danger thereof." Mar-
tial law is thus a derogation of the Constitution which
the Constitution itself permits; it is, in effect, an injury
self-inflicted by the Constitution in order to prevent a
greater injury. It must, therefore, be rigorously limited
in scope and duration, or the Constitution dies.
In consequence of the need to forestall violent revolu-
tion, martial law may have provided the occasion to
initiate a process of social reform; but it may not be
indefinitely prolonged on the ground that it is needed
to complete the process. Social transformation in a
democracy is a long-term task of all the people living and
acting together in freedom and responsibility.
From spectators to activists
President Marcos is exercising extraordinary powers
not to maintain the status quo but avowedly to over-
come the heritage of injustice, apathy and cynicism that
has nearly shattered the Republic. The people, therefore,
patiently await the transformation of an oligarchic feudal
system into a democratic egalitarian society. But noth-
ing will happen unle.. the people abandon their trsdi-
tional role as spectators and become active participants
in the massive effort required to achieve this transforma-
tion.
The more speedily they achieve this change within
themselves, the sooner the existing authoritarian regime
can be dismantled. Since martial law basically resulted
from a failure of self-government, the justification for
maintaining the regime would diminish as its avowed
goals are achieved and as the people feel an increasing
confidence in their capacity to govern themselves.
The process of dismantling martial law must be delib-
erate and measured 80 as to ensure a smooth transition
from the present "command society" to a democratic
polity. The indefinite prolongation of martial law or its
complete and precipitate withdrawal by a stroke of the
pen could result in anarchy and civil strife. These alter..
natives seem, thus far, to be unacceptable to most Fili-
pinos who, despite the admitted shortcomings of the
martial law regime, continue to give it their support.
Their patience, however, is not endless; they will not
wait forever.
Every Filipino, therefore, who does not wish to see
his country plunged into civil war has the duty not only
to wish President Marcos well but to cooperate with him
to ensure the success of the reform program. Its failure
would convince the people that there is no option left but
the forcible seizure of political power in order that the
goals of the social revolution which for centuries they
have striven to achieve but which have repeatedly eluded
them may finally be realized.

MEMORANDUM CIRCULARS
Memorandum Circular No. 40: Economy Measures on
University Expenditur.es
The Budget Commission, pursuant to a directive from
the President of the Philippines, has placed under re-
serve 15% of the authorized FY 1974-1975 appropriations
of all government agencies including the University of
the Philippines. This means that the proposed expen-
diture authorized in the internal operating budget of the
University approved by the Board of Regents on August
29, 1974 will have to be reduced to absorb the cut made
on the government contribution.
In view of this situation, all deans, directors and heads
of offices are hereby enjoined to observe strict economy
in the operation of their units or offices. They are re-
quested to ensure proper enforcement of existing circulars

urged to review their operating procedures in order to
prevent wastage in the use of manpower, equipment, and
supplies without unduly sacrificing effective performance.

players may be rated at P12.00 per rehearsal and P15.00
per performance.
b. The College will invite a competent seasoned con-
cluctor who can develop the proposed orchestra on a full-
time basis. Inasmuch as at present all qualified local
conductors are either teaching, performing, arranging,
recording, or arc abroad, the Board approved the proposed
assignment to the College (through the Goethe House)
of the German conductor, Mr. Hans Gunther Mommer
at no cost to the University for a period of one (1) year,
beginning 1975, pending Prof. Oscar Yatco's return from
Germany. (Prof. Yatco is a special lecturer/consultant
of the College.) The Goethe House has notified the College
of the availability of Mr. Mommer who will be ending a
15-year stint with Bangkok's Pro Musica Orchestra.
If realized, the Philippine Youth Orchestra would act-
ually be the first of its kind in the country (even the
so-called Filipino Youth Symphony Orchestra was a mix-
ture of youngsters and oldsters). This will be the country's
counterpart to the youth orchestras of Australia, Ger-
many, England, the U.S.A. and elsewhere.
a. As a training ground for student orchestra players
and conductors;
b. As a vehicle for the performance of the works of
composers, established and budding;
c. May perform for concerts sponsored by the V.P.
Committee on Cultural Presentations; and
d. May be hired out for student graduation recitals at
considerably lower cost than professional orchestras.
In this connection, the Board approved the following
recommendations:
ORGANIZATION OF ALL-STUDENT ORCHESTRA

pices of the College of Music of an all- student orchestra

a. P16.00 from all units;
b. P5.00 from all units offering summer courses; and
c. P5.00 from all units offering short-term and review
courses.
In this connection, only Grades V and VI pupils of the
University Elementary School shall be covered by the
athletic fee of 1'16.00, inasmuch as kindergarten to Grade
IV pupils are taught by the elementary school teachers.
The Board noted that the athletic fee is a service fee,
similar to the medical fee, the payment of which entitles
one to the use of the University athletic facilities and
participation in intramural, recreational, or varsity sports.
When students come to use the swimming pool, gym-
nasium, tennis courts and other facilities, no distinction
Is made as to which unit or college they belong to.
Graduate students in particular are frequent users of
the gymnasium, yet they had not been paying the athletic
fee.
The Board authorized the College of Education to
collect a laboratory fee of P17.50 for Machine Shop 2, a
laboratory subject, effective the Summer Session of 1975
or in the first semester, 1975-1976.

GUIDELINES ON RESEARCH CONTRACTS BETWEEN PIDLIPPINE

ACADEMIC AND RESEARCH INSTITUI'IONS AS
ADOPTED BY NEDA RESOLUTION NO. 2

FILE MEMO - September 27, 1974
NOTES ON THE GUIDELINES ON RESEARCH
CONTRACTS BETWEEN PHILIPPINE ACADEMIC
AND RESEARCH INSTITUTIONS AND FOREIGN
ACADEMIC AND RESEARCH INSTITUTIONS AS
ADOPTED BY NEDA RESOLUTION NO.2
(s. 75)
I have been asked by some academic segments why
the NEDA Resolution No.2 (s. 75) on the guidelines on
research institutions and foreign agencies was adopted.
Let me elaborate the reasons for this.
The matter was first discussed during the U.P. Board
of Regents deliberation on a contract involving one insti-
tute of the University of Philippines and an American
institution. It was stipulated in the contract that the
American institution shan have, among others, all the
rights of ownership of data, publication rights, payments,
and some other things. It appeared from the discussions
that such a contract completely reduces the Philippine
institution into a mere data gatherer and/or researcher.
A junior partner in research, in short. It was therefore
decided that this was a policy matter and NEDA took
it up subsequently.
It was believed that such contracts are not only in-
iquitous but also insulting to the Philippine institution.
In order to improve the terms under which such contracts
are undertaken, Resolution No.2 (s. 75) was adopted.
The Resolution provides the guidelines for contractual
relationships between foreign and local research insti-
tutions. Said guidelines serve as a statement of policy
of the Philippine government.
Henceforth) government boards reviewing research con-
tracts are stipulated in NEDA Resolution No.2 (s. 75).
NEDA RESOLUTION
No.2 (5. 75)
APPROVING THE GUIDELINES ON RE-
SEARCH CONTRACTS BETWEEN PHILIPPINE
ACADEMIC AND RESEARCH INSTITUTIONS
AND FOREIGN AGENCIES
'WHEREAS, Philippine academic and research insti-
tutions, in pursuance of their educational and scientific
pursuits, usually avail of the assistance of foreign agen-
cies;
\VHEREAS, in the course of such availment, Philippine
academic and research institutions often have to cope
with provisions which are substantially disadvantageous
to them, expecially in the matter of control, disposition
and/or utilization of the research product; and
WHEREAS, it is both necessary and desirable that
the Philippine Government guide and assist its academic
and r ~ s e a r c h institutions in their dealings with foreign
agencies ;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, AS IT IS
HEREBY RESOLVED, to adopt, as the same is hereby
adopted, the following Guidelines on Research Contracts
Between Philippine Academic and Research Institutions
and Foreign Agencies:
GUIDELINES ON RESEARCH CONTRACTS
BETWEEN PHILIPPINE ACADEMIC AND
RESEARCH INSTITUTIONS AND FOREIGN
AGENCIES
1. Philippine sources of research funding are to be
preferred over foreign sources. Foreign funding
should be tapped only when significant benefits can
be obtained thereby in terms of non-monetary re-
source inputs to the research. Asian funding sources
are to be preferred among foreign sources when these
are sought.
2. The basic principle should be observed that a re-
search contract between a Philippine academic and
research institution, and a contracting institution is
one among intellectual equals. It should be understood
that the research undertaking is a jointly sponsored
activity with intellectual inputs coming from both
parties.
3. Research contracts for data gathering or com-
pilation should not be undertaken as a rule. Rather,
full-fledged research undertaking involving data gather-
ing, analysis, evaluation and publication is encouraged.
4. Publication rights of research findings should
he jointly held as a rule by the contracting agencies,
although provision may be made when appropriate,
such that one or the other party would have initial
publication rights. However, it must be clear that
access to raw data and references to the same will
be unlimited for both parties upon completion and
submission of the work.
5. The foreign external agency has the right to
review, comment upon, inspect, or otherwise evaluate
the work performed or being performed under the
contract. It should be understood, however, that the
Philippine institution has the full right to draw its
conclusions on the basis of its findings. All inspections
and evaluations are to be done in such a manner as
will not unduly delay the research work.
6. The Philippine institution shall not be prevented
from releasing the findings after a reasonable time
if, for some reason, the foreign contracting party
withholds publication of the research results.
7. Original data or source material or copies
thereof should be released to foreign contracting par-
218 D.P. GAZETTE VOL. V, No. 11
ties only when mutuality of exchange is realized. This
should be done preferably as an exchange of compar-
able Philippine material available in foreign sources
but not locally.
8. Patentable results of the research carried out
under the project shall be the exclusive property of,
and shall be owned in common by, both contracting
parties, with a prohibition against assignment of rights
in patentable results without the prior written ap-
proval of the other contracting party.
9. In the estimation of cost, estimates of an allocated
overhead cost should be included, to reflect a true
picture of the aggregate cost of research project acti-
vities. Such overhead cost estimate should include
general administration, allocated equipment and faci-
lities cost, and other items not specifically or directly
identified as being incurred for the project. The pro-
portion of these costs borne by the participating agen-
cies may then be the subject of negotiation.
10. In the event that the negotiation is on a strict-
ly contractual basis between a foreign institution and
Filipinos employed by a Philippine institution, then
the latter should not be involved either in name or in
the actual work. The contract should then be made
in the private capacities of the individuals concerned,
subject to approved internal arrangements within the
Philippine academic and research institutions.
11. Arrangements for payment should be expressed
in terms of any currency as may be mutually agreed
upon, and not at the discretion of only one party.
RESOLVED, FURTHER, that tbe said Guidelines
be disseminated to all government academic research insti-
tutions for their guidance and compliance.
