Liltp Submieeion 0/ Gnulps

The Office of the Dean of Admissions reports that enrollingstudents and her staff have been greatly benefited and helpedby the fact that the great majority of members of the facultysubmitted student grades for the first semester on time, as provided in the rules. This may be due in part to the resolutionproviding penalties for late submission of grades which was

recently approved by the Board of Regents on the basis of areport of an ad hoc sub-committee of the Executive Committee.

In this connection. two members of the faculty of one Universiry unit have been' fined for failure. to submit student gradesas provided in the rules, even after a five-d_ay extension hadbeen granted at- .rheir crequest.

All deans and directors. are -nioined [Q continue to ensure

compliance with the rules on submission of grades, lO the interest of the service and of everybody concerned.

HISTORICAL PAPERS AND DOCUMENTS

THE RENOVAnON OF PHlLIPl'i1,E SOCIETY(IFelcome Address by Dr. Saloador P. Lopez. President 0/ the University of the Philippines

at ,b~ Ph;/;ppine Sociological. Society Nationai Convention, January 20, 1973)

VOL. IV; No. 1

The University of the Philippines has never been a cloister[or spinning fine theories about man and society divorced from

reality. Rather, it has always stood at the heart and center of

the national life, serving as the training ground for many of

our national leaders - bureaucrats, technocrats, intellectuals, professionals, artists. scientists, businessmen, politicians galore, and

with luck, an occasional statesman, The infinite possibilities of

this University make it, as I have said more than once, "an active,

perhaps the most active, agent of change in our society, engaged

in creating the conditions necessary for national development

and survival." If the University is to playa useful role in

national development, one crucial contribution it must make is

to encourage dialogue within professional associations like your

own. \'(fithout such dialogue, without the challenge of new ideas

and interpretations of our society and its culture, an academic

community stands to lose its dynamism and therefore also itscapacity to initiate significant social and cultural change.

Your presiding officer has just remarked that "some changes"

have taken place in our country since your last national conven

tion. I just wanted to say that this observation bids fair to becomethe classic understatement of the rear.

I am happy to welcome you, officers and members of the

Philippine Sociological Society, to the University of the Philippines. Your coming here for your Convention is especially appro

priate. Social studies have long been a central concern of our

academic community, and sociology and anthropology have been

two of the liveliest disciplines on this campus. Because of the

urgency of many of our social problems and the insistent demands

of national development, they will continue to increase in importance,

While this University was not the first to introduce sociology

as an academic discipline in the Philippines, sociology did become part of our curriculum in 1911, only three years after

the founding of the University. In those early years sociology

was taught as a species of social philosophy consisting of abstract

and often prescriptive reflections on the nature of society. In the1930's a more applied "social problems" approach was brought

to the University by Professor Serafin Macaraig. probably the firstFilipino Ph.D. in sociology. This social problems orientation didnot last long, however, for, by the 1940's sociology had beencombined with anthropology into a single department underProfessor H. Otley Beyer, The merger lasted until 1950, whendivorce was followed by a new marriage between sociology andsocial welfare in a combined department under Professor John deYoung.

Today, sociology, anthropology and social work are separateunits or departments of the University, as well as :1 luge numberof related disciplines or proto.disciplines, from Asian studies to

urban planning. that have borrowed some of their theories,methods, or inspirations from classical sociology. This tendencytowards specialization is inevitable and perhaps even necessary inan increasingly urban and technological society, Yet, there aretimes when one must overleap the limits of one's narrow specialization in order to achieve a broader synthesis more adequate to

rhe magnitude of the problems before us. May I suggest to you

that this is such a time, and that your asrociation as well as this

University should undertake a commitment to play a vital rolein resolving the serious problems that confront the nation.

Social change and national development, the need to accelerate

development while at the same time maintaining the society in

equilibrium - these are the central problems of our time andwill be for a long time to come. I have always insisted that

development should not be conceived or measured in purelyeconomic terms, since social, cultural, and political elements are

equally essential to balanced national development. To control

this process requires an understanding not only of the techniquesand technology of behavior modification and social engineering

but perhaps more urgently a comprehension of who we are and

whither we are bound, of the Filipino identity and the structure

of Philippine society, of Filipino aspirations and the insrituricnalforces that encourage or thwart them.

The issues of national development are ~ll familiar to you,

and coming as 1 do from a different field I would not presume

to advise you about how to study them, I might presume, never

theless, to insist that they should be studied,. that national crisis

and the disruption of traditional security should not deter. youfrom continuing your diverse investigations into the fundamental

concerns and problems of our society. It sometimes happens that

under pressure of external social influences an academic com

munity Of an academic discipline turns inward upon itself, becomes totally immersed in its narrow, parochial interests, and

loses the thrust toward relevance and change that ,"may havemarked it in other times. This should not happen. Your investiga

tions of social phenomena should never lose their bite or insight.

Untrammeled investigation is essential to our democratic way of

life and indispensable for national progress: A slowdown in socialinvestigation or any muting of scientific discourse may seem. like

a minor aberration in times like the present, but it could have

an adverse long-range effect in retarding the development of

regenerative viewpoints on the social order as well as of criticalsocial technology.

Learning always involves some risk - for societies as well as

for individuals. New ideas have a way of insinuating themselvesinto the social order and transforming individual lives. Socialand personal transformation means giving up old superstitionsthat were once held as verities, though it may sometimes bringabout uncertainty, confusion and danger.

May I quote some wise words on this subject from the teachings of Don Juan, a Yaqui medicine man from Sonora who likemany of us sought to become a man of knowledge and to leadothers along the same way:

\\,'heo a man starts to learn, he is never clear about his objectives.His purpose is faulty; his intent IS vague. He hop-s for rewardswhich will never materialize, for he knows nothing of the hardshipsof Learning.

He slowly begins to learn - bit by bit at first, then in bigchunks. And his thoughts soon dash, What he learns is never wharhe pictured, or imagined, and so he begins to be afra.d. Learningis never what one expects.

And thus he has stumbled upon the first of his natura] enemies:Fear! A terrible enemy - treacherous, and difficult to overcome. I!remains concealed at every turn of the way, prowling, wairing.

•

JANUARY 31, 1973 UP. GAZETIE---------_ ...._---- ..- -._-

And if the man, terrified in its presence. runs away, his enemywill have put an end to his quest

May I suggest that the problems of national development are

so urgent that you cannot Jet fear prevent you from investigating

them. To be overcome by fear would be to betray not only your

academic mission but also the trust Our society has placed in you

as the intellectual leaders of the nation.

As university men and women you have accepted the solemn

duty to pursue the truth wherever it may lead. Of course this

mission involves certain risks, but whoever thought that rruth,

which is the noblest prize that life can bestow, can be had

absolutely free for the asking, without pain or sacrifice of any

kind?

\X!irh these sentiments I welcome you once again to the Univer

sity. I trust that in the course of your Convention, you will

discover new sources of courage and vision CO pursue with undi

minished resolve the renovation of Philippine society.

Prohibition Again.st Littering in Campus

Every effort is being exerted by the Administration of theUniversity to keep our buildings and grounds clean and to beautifyand make wholesome our surroundings. However, we will notsucceed in this undertaking if some among us neglect to keep

our premises litter-free. Although trash receptacles have beenprovided in strategic locations in the buildings and grounds,some persons continue to litter these places with trash and otherwaste materials.

Attention is drawn to Ordinance No. 3815-5-·58 of QuezonCity which penalizes littering. The University intends to enforcestrictly this Ordinance in the University campus. In this connection, I wish to enjoin campus residents against burning trashor grass as this results not only in air pollution bur also in thedestruction of useful trees and bushes.

let us intensify our effort to create an environment conducive to wholesome living and to have a clean and beautifulcommunity of which we can be proud.

REVISED RATES FOR OVERTIME SERVICES

COLLECTION OF FEES

The Board approved the revised rates for overtime servicesof keypunch operators for projects financed by external entities (chargeable to income from rent of facilities of the University Computer Center):

CREATION OF ADDITIONAL CLASS TInES

The BOard aproved the creation of class titles and qualification standards fOT the academic non-reaching staff of theOffice of Admissions.

From '2.50 per hourTo 1'0.04 per card.The present hourly rate'2.50 as approved by the Board

at its 792nd meeting on 25 February 1970 is less than' satisfactory for the following reasons:a. In the case of keypunch operators whose production rateis less than the normal 62 cards per hour (of 80 .columnseach). the Center ends' up short-charged because it charges itscustomers on a per-card basis.b. In the case of fast keypunch operatoq who can punchmore than -62 cards. per hour, the sub-conscious effect of thehourly basis of-the 'overtime .rare is to slow down their usualkeypunching speed.

The Board noted that the lPO.04 per card rare is computed onthe basis of the present }"2,50 per hour rate and the normal62 o.rds per hour punching speed.

INCREASE OF MONTHLY ST1PEND· OF GRADUATESCHOOL SCHOLARS

The Board approved the increase in the monthly stipend ofthree (3) scholars in the Graduate School from PZOO to P300a month, and of their thesis {lid from P200 to P300, effectiveas. of the beginning of the first semester, 1972·1973.

This is the result of a comparative study of benefits pro-,vided by various scholarships funded by the University, lindwill make the grants more at par with those of the 'Collegeof Engineering and the Institute of Planning. Funds are availablefrom the Graduate School.

SHORT·TERM COURSES IN COLLEGE OF PHARMACY.

The Board authorized the College of Pharmacy to hold shortterm courses in Pharmacy during the semestral vacation (May7·18, 1973) and to charge participants in accordance with thefollowing schedule:a. Adverse Drug' Reactions and Interactions, Fertility and Anti

Fertility Drugs, Ecology, etc.10 hours lecture, 5-6 M-FFee: 1'50

The Board authorized the University of the Philippines atBaguio to usc the student council fee, woman's -club fee, cultural fee, publication fee and j-ournal fee of students in .thecollege for the completion of the Student Center Building.

In view of restrictions on student activities, these fees are notbeing used for the purposes for which they were collected; on theother hand, there is a need to finish the construction of :theStudent Center Building which was started two years ago :butcould not be completed for .lack of funds.

The Board noted that there is a need to establish new classtitles and qualification standards to properly satisfy and allocate staff positions in the Office of Admissions. Heretofore,there were too many persons appointed as Assistants to the Deanof Admissions.

The Board authorized the School of Economics to chargeparticipants in the Training Program in Development Economics a nominal tuition fee of 1"600 a year starting the schoolyear 1973_1974. The program fills a critical need in development economics training, particularly for middle managementgroups of the Government, and therefore deserves the U~i.

versity's continued support despite the termination of the FoodFoundation assistance.

In this connection, the Board approved the waiver of tuitionfees for up to five (5) participants in the Program.

The Board authorized the College of Education to collecta non-reimbursible application fee of f20 and P30 from localapplicants, and of $20 and $30 from foreign applications, to

the masteral and doctoral programs respectively, effective theschool year 1973·1974.

In this connection, the Board approved the setting up of arevolving fund from the collection of the fees to be earmarkedfor the development of graduate admissions examinations, processing of applications, production of information materials"'including the catalogue, and for the expenditures in connectionwith the administration of the test including· the payment ofhonoraria of examiners and proctors.

ESTABLISHMENT OF PHILIPPINE EXECUTIVE ACADEMYAS DISTINCT UNIVERSITY UNIT

The Board established the Philippine Executive Academy as adistinct unit of the University of the Philippines.

The program of the Academy calls for the participation ofgovernment administrators as well as executives of private industry. While the Academy has been heretofore a sub-unitof the College of Public Administration, by special law it hasits own budget separate from that of the College.

As a distinct unit, the Academy would have greater statureto deal with irs clientele. It would be able to draw more directinterdisciplinary cooperation and coordination not only from theCollege of Public Administration but also the College of BusinessAdministration, School of Economics, and other units of theUniversity. Moreover, it would remove the prevailing notion thatthe program is heavily oriented to public administration, whenin fact irs course of studies has been designed precisely to caterto the training needs of both the public and private sectorsof the economy.

TIlE PRmlACY OF TIlE TEACHING FUNCTIONBy Dr. Salvador P. lopez

President, University ~J/ tb» Philippines(Remorkjat.the 252nd meeting of the University Council,

17 Febmary 1973)

VOL. IV, No, 3

I would like to share with you a feeling of concern over thestate of teaching in the University of the Philippines.

As you are aware, ever since I came to the University' in' 1969,I have- strongly emphasized .the University's .: responsibilities inrwo fields other than teaching, namely, research and community

. service. This policy has borne rich fruit: today, research and, community service have achieved parity w'ith teaching 'as the

principal . tasks of. the University. This fact was underlined

at OUf 1972 Faculty Conference in Los Banos, w~e.n we choseas. the central theme of the conference, 'The University and Na-tional Development." .

tr However, in the process of bringing research and community'service to a level of parity with teaching, we may have over,reached ourselves. I have a suspicion that today teaching is. trailing's:omewhat behind' rese~rch a~d community service, P.Ot onlyas a task of the University, bur as a duty of professors'.

The rime has come to sound the alarm: we must restore

teaching to its status as the primordial function, indeed, theraison d'etre of the University, Research and community serviceshould not be regarded as separate or independent activitiesof the faculty but as activities related to and supportive of teaching. Indeed, the University first went into research and community service because these activities enriched, and were inturn enriched by teaching. If these were separate and independent activities, then they should have been given to personsether than professors who could perform these tasks just as wellif not better,

Teaching stands on a par with research and community servicebut in the sense of being primus inter pares, first among equals.

Accordingly, I would also like to see our senior and mostexperienced, our best and ablest professors not only do) moreteaching but mote teaching of freshmen. Let's not leave the freshmen to the tender mercies of the graduate assistants and substitute instructors; the latter are really more useful in helping upperclassmen who are already well advanced in the art of learning.let our senior professors welcome the freshmen at the thresholdof the University, for the rule that first impressions are lastingapplies to reachers and students alike. Let's not leave the bestpart of the academic banquet till the dessert; rather, let's startgiving it to them with the soup. It is during the freshman yearthat students must develop a proper respect for the capabilitiesof their teachers and the excellence of the University. It willbe too late when they are juniors or seniors.

There is need also to upgrade the teaching skills of curfaculty. Teaching, after all, is an art that must be learned.Geniuses may be born, but teachers are made. It is unfortunately

nor true that good scholars and scientists are also good teachers.The opposite is often the case. Nobody should think that he

. does not need to learn how to teach-. Everybody can learn to

teach better. I have received a report from the College ofMedirine-c-and I thought it was interesting that it should comefrom the College of Medicine-s-concerning a teacher-trainingprogram they have there. I would like to urge ali units to

undertake similar programs for the' improvement' of the' teaching competence of their faculty members. \Vle shall request theDean of the College of Education to form a committee todevelop such programs for all our faculties..

Finally, I would like to mention a problem which we sharewith other universities around the world, whether in the developed or the dev'eloping countries. I refer eo the danger of

" the .universities' losing their faculties.

About a decade ago, General Romulo used to start hisspeeches by saying that the most serious problem he faced asUniversity President was the danger of losing his faculties.Today, I feel the force of this double entendre in accentuatedform.

For example, I have received a request from the PhilippineCouncil for Agricultural Research (peAR) for the full or parttime detail to it of 70 faculty members of U.P, at Los Banos.They will be entitled to receive honoraria, in some cases higherthan their salaries from the University.

This problem has become increasingly more serious in theUniversity. The parr-time arrangement takes various forms: limitedpractice of oue's profession, consulrancy or part-time detail, allof which may be regarded as varieties of "academic capitalism."

We must, of course, share our faculty with the government andwith the private sector. This is one of the ways the Universityserves the nation. But if this practice continues unregulated, wewill soon be killing the goose that lays the golden eggs.

The U.P. has the largest pool of outstanding scholars, scientistsand researchers in the country today. Many of the technocratsnow serving the government are or were former members of ourfaculty. But if the University is to continue producing outsrend,ing scholars and scientists, we better keep some of them here,or there will be none to follow in the footsteps of D.D. Corpuz,Gerardo P. Sicar, Cesar Virata , Dioscoro Umali, etc.

More specific ground rules must be formulated for sharingour faculty with the government and wirh private enterprise.The rules must set desirable limits for activities of our facultyoutside their regular duties in the University so that these activities will strengthen rather than vitiate their capability forteaching and research.

CHANGE IN ADMISSION POLICY FOR FRESHMEN IN

U.P. COMPREHFNSIVE HIGH SCHOOLThe Board approved the change in the admission policy for

freshmen of the V.P. Comprehensive High School for 19731974, as foliows:

a. Admission -

A comprehensive high school 15 presumed to be a democratlc school which should not refuse admission to any highschool student residing in the community it serves. How.f':ver, in view of irs limited facilities, the U.P. Comprehensive High School will have to adopt such admissionrequirements as are necessary to keep it within its enroll.ment limits, wirhour defeating the spirit and purpose of the

comprehensive h~h school. Initially, it propores to admitchildren of faculty and employees, gradualn of V.P. Elemenl4ry School for 1973-74, regardless of their grades, anda number of weli-qualifled applicants from the outside.

AU will be required, however. to take an entrance examination lor placement and other purposes. (Approved changeitalicized.)

b. jusnficaricn -In this initial stage of the establishment of the Compte

hensive High School, the objective of getting a good crosssection of srudenrs can be served by the proposed change;however, considering the larger number and more homo.geneous composition of the succeeding graduating classes inthe V.P. Elementary School after J973-74. which might norsynchronize with the size and composition of a freshmanclass that can be accommodated by a Comprehensive HighSchool, it is necessary to reexamine this work afrer the endof the coming academic year.

P20,000 REVOLVING FUND FOR TEXl1'OOKS IN COL·LEGE OF ARTS AND SCIENCES

The Board appropriated 1'20,000 out of the present publicationsfund of rhe College of Arts and Sciences [0 ronsrirute a revolving fund for printing of textbooks.

The textbooks will be prepared by the faculty upon recornmendation of both the department and college textbook commitrees and subject to final approval of the University Textbook Committee.

B. To maintain the scholarship, a recipient must carry the nor

mal load prescribed by his academic unit, and must pass allhis academic subjects with a weighted average grade of atleast "2.75" in the undergraduare and "2.0" in the grad,uare program.

C. Scholarship lost due to academic reasons may be recoveredin the semester immediately following two successive semesters when the student obtained at least a weighted averagegrade of "2.75' (for undergraduate students) or "2.0" (for

graduate students). In case the scholastic delinquency is nordue to academic inadequacy. the Office of Student Affairs.after a thorough evaluation of the case, may allow the scholar to retain his scholarship.

COLLECTJON OF FEES

The Board authorized the University Computer Center tocharge students enrolled in courses requiring computer servicesa fee of P2.00 per computer run beyond three (3) free compurer runs per machine problem.

The collection of a fee is believed marc equitable thancharging a f1ar rare of f20 per student, inasmuch as the rareis based on need or frequency of use.

The Board approved the increase in laboratory fees in theCollege of Engineering from P11.S0 to P17.50 per laboratory

course, effective the first semesrer, 1973-1974, provided that thiswill not be subject to the 20% general increase in all fees torake effecr the first semester, 1973-1974. The cost of materialshas gone up considerably, hence the increase.

The Board approved the increase in laboratory fees for theDepartment of Veterinary Anatomy in the College of Veterinary Medicine effective the first semester. academic year 19731974, from Pl1.S0 to PJ7.50 PM laboratory conrse (which isthe standard laboratory fee in the College of Arts and Sciences),provided this will nor be subject to the 20% general increase inall fees to take effect the first semester, 1973-1974.

The above increase is made for the following reasons:

a. The prices of laboratory animals have gone IIp due to

their scarcity and their being used as food and workinganimals.

b. The prices of chemicals, reagents and other laboratory sup"plies have correspondingly increased due to the floating ra~e.

The Board likewise approved rhe adoption of the fclloi... ingschedule of fees for the graduate program ill the College of

A NEW ACADEMIC CONSTELLATION-THE UNIYERSITY OF THE PHILIPPINES SYSTEM

BY DR. SALV,ADOR P. LOPEZPresident 0/ the Ullit1eTJity of the Philippines

(Remarks -at the First Meeting of the University Council of theUniversity of the Philippines at los Bafios. Monday. .May 21, .1973)

•

I have come to chis historic first meeting of the UniversityCouncil of the University of the Philippines at Los Banos 'fortwo reasons; first, to underline the need to maintain essentiallinks between this first autonomous University and the Universityof the Philippines System; and second, to consider some of theprinciples that should govern henceforth the relationship betweenthe System and . the member universities•.

A special responsibility rests upon the University of the Philippines at Los Banos, Its 'administration and operation will, to

a large extent, Set the .pattern for the future development of the

System and its component units. By the terms of PresidentialDecree No. 58 issued on November 20, 1972, and the resolu

tion of the Board of Regents adopted on December 21. 1972

in implementation of the decree, the .Universiry o.f the' Philip

pines at Los Banos was established as a distinct and separate

institution enjoying a substantial me~ure of autonomy in academic, administrative and fiscal matters under the authority ofthe Board of Regents and the President of the. University.

It is perhaps natural at this initial stage of the. developmentof the System that there should be a tendency to emphasize the

linkages that exist between the System and this autonomous University rather than the features which endow the University with

a distinct and separate personality,

While this may seem at first sight to constrain the autonomy

of this University, the tendency in the future will be to expandrather than to diminish this autonomy. This is as it should be.

It follows from this principle that the powers of the Chancellor

and the other organs of rhe University here will tend to increase with the passage of time, and I gi,re }cu my pledge not

only to allow but to encourage this inevitable development.

Meanwhile, 1 believe you would agree that at this initial stage

it should be our common concern to emphasize the integrity andunity of the System as a whole so that each autonomous mem

ber University. while developing its own potential according to itsown needs and circumstances, will find .its proper place in the

academic constellation known as- the university of the Philippines

System.You will see from this that we. all of us together, bear a

heavy responsibility: I as the first President of the University ofthe Philippines System. Dr. Samonrc as the first Chancellor, andyou as the Faculty of the first automous University of the Svsrem. Th~ ci rcumsrances under which the decision was made to

establish a Svsrem of autonomous universities rather than aseparate and independent Agricultural University at Los Banosserve to underscore the weight and magnitude of .this rcsponsibilirv. You will recall that the decision was taken at the endof a long and exhaustive discussion in the course of which ideasand proposals were advanced and sustained with a vigor andearnestness appropriate to a community of scholars. Nuw thatthe decision has been taken, we have a right to expect all members of the community to cooperate loyally in .its Impleemnrarion.

The gravity of rhe problems we. have to face together is compounded by the very nature of this University itself. The LosBanos units have long occupied a special, nay, aunique role in

our scheme of national education. Here is the heart and center ofthe agricultural and forestry sciences in our country, and here,therefore, is a vital command post of the national economic de,

velopment program in general and of the food production program

in particular. Without relinquishing this special character and

responsibility, Los Banos must now assume an added task, that

of transforming itself into a rounded, complete and balan~ed

University, offering comprehensive, quality education in the na

tural sciences, social sciences and the humanities. The effort toachieve this objective will require a great deal of time, energy

and resources, but it is an essential task that must be done. Iam certain that the achievement of this objective will enhance

rather than diminish. the stature of Los Banos as one of thenation's principal institutions for the development of our natural

and human resources.

In the face of the special problems of this new University,it was our view in the Board of Regents that this University would

be best served during this initial stage by appointing as the

first Chancellor of the University an outstanding academic per

sonality with proven expertise and experience in the field ofuniversity administration. Accordingly, the Board of Regents

upon my recommendation decided to appoint as the first Chan

cellor of this University. Dr. Abelardo G. Samonte, the formerVice-President for Academic Affairs.

1 will not say anything at this time in praise of Dr. Samonre.If he expects your high regard he will have to merit it, and if hecraves your support he will have to earn it: All r can say at rhis

time is that he has the confidence of rhc Board of Regents and that

we commend him to your undivided suppon and cooperation. He

has rhe ability, earnestness and commitment to accomplish the

task encrusted to him. namely. to establish in Los Banos a Vni

versirv worthy of the traditions of the University of the Philip

pines, an instituricn that will set the standards Ior other uutcno

mous universities to follow.

As President of the Universirv System, ir is natural, I repeat. that I should stress the unity and the integrity of the System.One of the unifying principles of the System is the principle ofthe intcrchangcab.Iirv of personnel, the mobility of professors andadministrators throughout the System. from one member universityto another. This principle is not new; it is really quite old, .and -isperhaps best exemplified hy the man who held longest tenure asPresident of rhe University of the Philippines and is rememberedas one of the most effi:cti\c presidents the University ever had, aman of Los Banos, Dr. Bienvenido ;..,{. Gonzalez. JUSt as LosBanos once sent one of its OUTstanding sons to Manila and Dilimanto run: the University, so now we return the compliment by sending to Los Banos an OUTstanding son of the Uni versiry from Diliman. Thus, the wisdom of the principle of Imerchangeabilirv and

54 u.P. GAZEHE VOL. IV, No.5

mobility of personnel will be proved once more. to the benefitof the University as a whole.

In dosing, I would like to draw [or you a projection of theUniversity of the Philippines Sysrett that is yet to be. Los Banos is'

the first of the autonomous Universities. The Board of Regents

has decided to give a chance to the other existing external unitsin Bagnio. Iloilo and Cebu to develop into autonomous universi,

ties. Tatlac will cease operations this coming academic year, forthe reason that it has failed to grow and develop. \'(le arc consi

dering the establishment of a third external unit located in Tac

laban City to cover the eastern region of the Visayas. We alsobelieve that Mindanao should have at least one branch of the

University, located in Davee. because it is unthinkable that' oursecond largest island should be deprived of a -University of thePhilippines presence.

This, then, is the framework of a System consisting of thecore unit at Diliman and Manila, the first autonomous Universityat Los Banos, and potential autonomous universities in Baguio.Iloilo, Cebu, Tacloban and Davao. This is a project both challenging and exciting, based on the belief that the University of the

Philippines should make its presence felt in all the principal regions of the country. Heretofore. external units have been main

tained merely to represent a symbolic presence of the University

of rhc Philippines. This policy is ended. Unless the external units

are able to maintain a lif'ing presence of the University, theyconstitute an unjustified waste of precious resources.

This development plan presupposes rhar the University of thePhilippines will become the main provider of quality higher educ

ation for our youth. This is the challenge we have to face. Noneof the small external units will ever have the advantages that Los

Banos enjoys in terms of physical plant. facilities, equipment oracademic personnel. But to the extent that the national govern-

rnent is able to provide them with the resources they need, theywill at lease have the potential to develop. into efficient and viable

institutions of higher learning.

This is the vision of the University o~ the Philippines Systemthat I would like to share with you. It is an exciting vision tharis well within the realm of realization. I would like to remindyou that even as we arc establishing the University of the Philip

pines System the government is starring a complete overhaul ofour system of higher education. \\lith the holding this year of the

first National College Entrance Tesrswc are. in effect, adoptingthe principle of selective admissions to college and university

the principle that only those should go to college who have the

ability and the commitment to benefit from a university educacation. This will reduce college enrollment and force many col

leges and universities to close shop. This, in turn, will create

mounting pressure on the University of the Philippines to admit

more students.J cia not know what this will require "in terms of f~nding,

physical facilities, and faculty. I know only that the requirements"

will be beyond whar the University, with its present resources, isnow able to provide. But if the University is challenged to provide

more places for deserving students, then J see no option for the

University except to respond to the challenge.This is the reason why it is so important to make a success

of this first autonomous University of the Philippines at Los

Banos. Irs success will point the way for the other auroncmousuniversities that come after. This is the measure of the challenge

that is specifically addressed to this University, and I wanted tocome to this historic first meeting of your Council to apprise you

of the weight and magnitude of our joint responsibility. It is a

formidable challenges. but if we stand firmly and loyally together,

we shall overcome.

FREEDOM WITH RESPONSIBIUTY

By DR. SALVcADOR P. LOPEZPresident of the U'1livC1'sity of the Philippines

(Address delivered at the Commencement Exercises, University

of the Philippines, 27 May 1973)

You are the durable members of a class that may have beendestined for greatness. You first came to the University or werealready here in 1969, the year that ushered in the most turbulent period in the history of the University. Indeed, Class 1973has the distinction of having survived an apocalyptic quadren

nium which encompassed the earthquake of 1969. typhoon Yoling of 1970, and the floods of'1972, as well as the battle ofMendiola of 1970, the barricades of 1971, the suspension ofthe privilege of the writ of habeas corpus in 1971, and the proclamation of martial law in 1972.

I would like, therefore, to extend my fervent congratulationsto you. You complete your studies at a time of fateful transition in the life of our nation. You have been tested, as it

were, by the forces of nature and ideology. You have comethrough, banle-scerred and somewhat chastened. bur alive andkeenly aware of the mighty winds of change that are sweepingour country today.

The most radical change has come to the universities. Overnight. as if by magic. the University of the Philippines hasbeen transformed into a tranquil grove of academe. The ubiquitoUS graffiti have disappeared from the walls of the buildings.Classes have nor been disrupted or suspended in favor of demonstrations in front of Congress or Malacafiang or the Amer,

ican Embassy. Instead of marching in the streets, the students

have queued up to enter the library, theatre, gym or swimmingpool.

Students have grown quiet but only in the sense that theyno longer brandish placards or shout slogans at the tOP of theirvoices. While shying away from activism, they have in facr become more active than before. In addition to sports and otherextra-curricular activities. students seem to have been doingmore reading. more studying and. one hopes, more thinkingalso than before.

In short. teachers are attending (0 their reaching and students

have gone back to their studies - both with exemplary zeal.The lor of university presidents has also changed for the better.

1 remember how people used to shake their heads in disbelief

and pity when told that in 1969 I gave up the two most prestigious ambassadorships in our foreign service - the United Na

tions and \\7ashington - for the presidency of this University.

thus exchanging the soft and sybaritic life of a diplomat for rhetough and dangerous life of a university president. Today. people have stopped commiserating with me, {or the life of a university president has become not merely tole nib le bur rewardingand, with luck, even pleasant and enjoyable,"

The universities have become quiescent rather than quiet.The distinction is important. One should not assume that theyhave been struck dumb by martial law, for the classrooms.libraries and laboratories are inviolate havens of thought, andfear cannot long constrain the human mind. One must rejoice

that this is so, because a university that has lost its kinetic forceand become as silent as a cemetery has lost the right to be calleda university.

It would therefore be misleading to say that the universities

have subsided into a state of total paralysis since martial Jaw.In face, the}' are humming with more activity than before.though this is the more meaningful activity of the mind and themore salutary activity, of the body. \Y/e are, in effect, returningro the simple, traditional wisdom embodied in the ancient motto:mens SalUJ in. corpore sana,

There is an enduring element of traditionalism at the coreof all radical philosophy. After all, a radical is, perhaps bestdefined as one who goes to the roots of things, Accordingly,the type of radicalism most appropriate for our rime is one that

has the courage to suspect and if necessary reject dubious ideasor values whose main attraction is that they are new, as well asthe wisdom to hold on to tested ideas or values whose 'only faultis that they are old.

The paradox of the New Society is that it aims at the restoration of the traditional values of Filipino society which the mo

dern, urbanized Filipino has come eo regard as old-fashioned,outmoded and rather quaint. It calls for the reconstruction of

Filipino society by using as building blocks the ancient virtues

of our forefathers: individual dignify, social discipline, obedience

to law, rights counter-balanced by responsibility, respect for therights .of others, honesty, industry. patriotism, etc.

The New Society thus rc.emphasizes old traditions and testedvalues. Whar is new .in the New Society is the insistence thatour people have the courage and ability to correct the evils that

have long .plagued Filipino life: the greed and selfishness, thegraft and corruption. the irresponsibility and anarchy, the crime

and violence - evils which we have tolerated as inevitable andaccepted as the necessary concomitants of a system based onfreedom and democracy.

Already we see evidence of dramatic improvements that havecome about in a period of only eight months since martial law.

laws are being enforced, government employees are more honest

and efficient. taxes are being paid, irresponsible politicians have

been immobilized, the streets are cleaner and safer, everybodyis home before midnight, and people seem to be more considerateof each other. More important than these is the primacy given toa national program of economic and social development whichaims at the more equitable sharing of the bounties of life amongthe people, thus narrowing the abyss that separates the affluenrfew from the impoverished majority of our people. One aspect ofthis program is the concentration of effort and resources onagricultural and industrial production; another is the launchingof agrarian reform on a nation-wide scale.

Bur the changes in our society are yet new and fresh; itwill take time for the reforms and improvements to take rootand become permanent. The threat of backsliding is real. andwe see signs of such backsliding even now. Our society. which hasbeen sick for a very long time. has just passed through a dangerous crisis, and is' on the way to recovery. But this is preciselythe moment when the threat of II relapse is greetcsr-,-a relapse

that could lead to mortal danger.Time, then, is what, the New Society needs. How much time?

This is 3. nutter of. careful appreciation of the realities. Onthe one hand, the reforms need lime to lake deep root so that

the process of amelioration becomes irreversible. On the otherhand, this is truly a nation conceived in liberty and dedicatedto the principles or' freedom. It is hardly necessary to recall that

the numerous tribes of this archipelago were forged into onenation in the fire of a prolonged struggle against Spanish rulethat lasted more than three centuries, or that we finallv earnedthe right (Q liberation in 1946 because we had resi'sted the

American occupation of 1898 as well as the Japanese invasionof 1942.

In proclaiming martial law and instituting the New Society,

President Marcos could not have desired or intended to uproot loveof freedom from the heart of the Filipino or to extinguish theflame of liberty that burns in his soul. Thar would be an impossi

ble task, and as one of om most distinguished "heroes of the lastwar he surely knows better than to attempt it. I believe that

whar he wants done, and what we should all tr~', to do together.is to fashion a way of life carefully balanced between freedom and

responsibility. between liberty and order. Our task is to achievefreedom with responsibility. liberty with discipline, order wirhourregimentation, authority without tyranny, that is, a viable com.

promise between the inrcgrirv of individual life and t"he necessities of collective existence-s-and to achieve this without the

violence and bloodshed that usually attend such revolutionaryenterprises.

We arc running a race with catastrophe. For it is far easierto lose freedom without bloodshed than to regain freedom

without bloodshed. One shou-ld never assume that a people willing to sacrifice freedom and democracy for the sake of necessary

reforms are prepared to bear the sacrifice indefinitely. Quiescenceis not necessarily synonymous with tranquility, nor acquiescencewith affirmation. The crucial problem. therefore, 'is to determine

the precise point at which the sacrifice ceases to be supportableand grievances become explosive-the point. in other words, atwhich the restitution of civil liberties and the restoration ofrepresentative government become imperative.

let no one deny it: our political system, our economic system,indeed, the national society as a whole has required the doubletherapy of deep purgation and shock treatment. But such radical

. therapy isnot without danger, and care must be taken to ensurethat the deep-seated vices are eradicated without, however, killingthe patient.

The proper timing of a return to constitutional government is

a crucial decision which rests solely on the judgment of the

Presidenr of the Republic. Mcnresquieu pointed our long agorhat no government can long rest upon the isolation, throughmutual fear or suspicion, of the ruler from the ruled or of thecitizens from each other. Such a government, he said, would negate the essential condition of all forms of political organization,

namely, the need of the ruler and the ruled, and of the citizensamong rbemselves, for acting and speaking together. PresidentMarcos, in his political testament, Todav's Reooletian: Demo-:racJ'. which was published in September 1971, one yearbefore martial law, expressed a similar thought in these words:"Political power in a democracy is responsible power. Becausegovernment and people are joined together by the principle ofconsent, the political authority is, therefore, accountable to thepeople; it is an authority that must explain itself:'

These considerations would seem .to argue in favor of therestoration of civil and political rights sooner rather than' later.

The New Society is facing its mosr difficult test in the universities. For in the universities are to be found the most i ntelligenr and sensitive groups in the national community; it is therewhere human thought cannot be unchained. where the life ofthe mind cannot be constrained by diktat. If .the New Society


passes the test in the universities, it means that the most sophisti

cared and critical segment of the population has accepted the

regime and is willing to adjust to it as an unavoidable waystation on the road .to a more humane, more just, more equitablesociety. This would be the beginning of our national redemption.

If this should come to pass. our children in after years willarise to call us blessed. They will call us blessed because in ,the

time of darkness we waited to see the light, and in the day of

anger we held our peace.But, today. if we acted our of .misdirectcd courage, misguided

will, or erratic vision, then we would be a a nation doomed, and

the only destin}' that would await us is measureless sorrow, agon.,.

and death.If, on the other hand. we responded positively to the challenge

of the present, then we would be helping fa build a new society

imbued with the dreams of our heroes and capable of providing

a better life in larger freedom for all our people.

This is the challenge we must face together. God grant that

we may have the wisdom, the will, and the courage to do our

part.

"Art. 179d. - Nothing here;'1 provided Jhl1fl pre_elude the Univenity from moking appointments 10 thefaCtI-Tty on a contract basis for d fixed term;"

The salient features of these revised proposals on academictenure are:

1. Tenure begins only with the rank of assistant professor.However, the rule shall have no retroacrtive effect, hence Instructors with permanent' appointment upon the adoption of the rulewill retain their permanent status and those holding temporaryappointments are given five years to earn permanency accordingto the provisions of the new rules.

z. The "Up or Out" policy, originally proposed for thoseinitially appointed in the University to the rank of instructor ismodified. Within the maximum probationary period of fiveyears, an instructor is either promoted to the rank of assistantprofessor on the basis of his having a graduate degree or aprofessional degree requiring at Ieasf five years of academic workor outstanding academic. or professional achievement. or his

•

pointment is terminated. However, instructors holding per.. anent appointments at the time of the adoption of these rules

may remain on the faculty, but their rank will be frozen at theinstructor level unless they qualify for promotion to assistantprofessor on the bases of specified criteria.

3. A minimum' qualification is set for initial appointment int.he University to the rank of assistant professor.

-, -4. To give the University greater flexibility in recruitmentI. of its faculty, provision is made for appointments on the con

., tract basis with a fixed term. These apointments will be coveredby conditions set in the contract and not by the general provisions prescribed in articles 177 to 179c.

HISTORICAL PAPERS AND DOCUMENfS

~MARKS AT THE NECROLOGICAL SERVICES FOR THE LATE DR. ENRIQUE T. VIRATA,VICE·PRESIDENT EMERITUS, UNIVERSITY OF THE PHILIPPINES, 5 JUNE 1973

EnIogiee

When one hears the name Enrique T. Virata, the Universityof the Philippines comes unbidden to the mind. Nor can one

. think of the University of the Philippines without rememberingperhaps a dozen men and women whose names are inextricablylinked with the history of the University. One of these is En-rique T. Virata. •

. It is fitting, then, that his mortal remains should have beenbrought to this campus and that we should' render UOIO himthese final obsequies. For more than twenty years he livedand worked as a greatly admired and highly respected memberof this. University community of Diliman, capping a full halfcentury of service as a member of the D.P. faculty. The V.P.was home to him for -tbe greater part of his 73 years, andeven after he finalJy left these precincts three years ago to liveelsewhere•. he .was never far removed from the interests andconcerns of the University.

And now that he is gone from us, the contemplation of hiscareer invites certain reflections upon the Jil~ of the dedicatedteacher and academician. What is it that first attracts a manso brilliantly endowed like Enrique Virate - a B.S. mlJgn"cum ldude from Harvard - to the academic life. and rivetshim 10 that life so firmly that he stays wirh it for all of 'half a

century? Here is a man exceptionally tifled in the esotericdisciplines of mathematics and statistics, who could nave madefor himself and his family a more than comfortable living asa topflight bank, insurance or industrial executive, but whochose instead the quiet, self-effacing existence of a universityteacher and administrator, a life as humble in its pretensionsas it is modest in its material rewards and satisfactions.

Those who knew him well can only hazard an explanation,for Enrique Virata was the sort of man who would' not havebothered to explain himself to himself or to justify himself toothers. He lived his life according to the dictates of '8 built-inmoral imperative. and he could not be diverted [rom it by ex-'tenor and irrelevant considerations. Not for him the temptations

----~~.~.. ~~."..,.,,~-~-----~-

•,

•

of preferment or the blandishments of power' and wealth; forhim, only the satisfaction of a life lived according to the innerlogic of. its own integrity.

,As a virtual outsider who first came to this campus only a

little over four years ago, I have always been deeply impressed

by manifestations of the same single-minded devotion (0 the

University that Dr. Virata showed all his life. I refer specificallyto the U.P. and not to the academic life in general, because Ithink it is true to say of Dr. Virata that his involvement. hiscommitment, was not to some vague, generalized ideal of academic existence, but to this University of Buildings and classrooms, libraries and laboratories, gymnasiums and playing fields,theatres and concert halls. teachers and students - this entireextraordinary community that holds in its hands so much ofthe country's future and perhaps the key to its destiny.

We who have come to this community from other disciplines,pursuits or professions - who have spent our lives shuttlingbetween offices, assignments and missions - can only marvelat this veritable monastic commitment to the University. Yes,we marvel at it, and then feel humbled. For, if men like Dr.Yirate could find total fulfillment in the life of the academic,th_en, perhaps it is. we who have been mistaken, we who have

misspent our time, misused our energies and misconceived cur

goats.

I have found the example of men like Dr. Virata truly aweinspiring: It was out of this feeling that, in 1969, during my

first "year in the University, I recommended to the Board ofRegents, and the Board approved, the award to Dr. Virata- of

the degree 'of Doctor of Laws, honoris C4f1Ja. He was honoredat that time together with two others who had served as Pres

idents of the University. I thought that Dr. Virata's single.minded

devotion and total commitment to the University earned himthe right to be ranked in .the annals of the University side by

side with the others.

"In the same spirit, the Board of Regents upon my recommendarion awarded to him JUSt about a month ago the rank of Vice.President Emeritus of the University of the Philippines - thefirst to be conferred this bouor. \'<'hen he retired in 196,j, hewas awarded the tide of University Professor.

This, then, is the legacy to us of Dr. Enrique T. Virata:

the example of a life lived completely in the grove of theacademe;" in unpretentious circumstances, yet in total self.fulfillmenr and indefeasible integrity. \Vle thank his sorrowingfamily - his beloved widow and children, brother and sisters-:.. for giving so great and rare a man to the University. May

they find solace in 'the thought that now and forevermore, whenthey remember him, it will be even as we in the V.P. will

remember him: as one whose heart, mind and spirit have be.come ohe with the indestructible heart and mind and the immortal spirit of this great University.

Dr. Salvador 1'. Lol)CZ

.-It· is almost impossible. to know everything about a man,.for a person is many different things, and Dr. Virara led a longlife; a full life; a rich life. Someone who is Jacking in wisdomand: .in years should not therefore profess to speak as if heknew all about him. But if 1 know only Iiulc of him, 1 knowthis, little very .well. 1 know that he seemed gruff in exterior,blunt .in manner and direct in his relationships. I know, too,that the seeming gruffness and bluntness and directness derivedfrom unadorned candor and unbounded' and inestimable honesty,and a total inability on his parr to dissemble.

His intellectual style, which was profoundly u~comfo.rtable· tothe pretentious, was to strip a problem of all triviality, layingbare the essential issues of right or wrong, truth or error His

humanity, nevertheless, was impossible to repress, (or it flowedforth steadily in decades of encouragement and guidance to themany who arc beneficiaries of his tuition. And his humanityburst, too, in occasional humor, pure humor which unerringly

assailed vice nnd malice and incompetence without injury to anyperson's dignity.

I was never a pupil in any of his classes, yet regard him forthe integrity of his example as one of the Universitv'r- 8reatteachers, raising the rank of professor as if to' it born.'

Dr. Virara, 1 am sure, will not Approve of embellishment-ofthe facts, and I must end. He has passed on to his reward. It isproper that we be here not to despair over his passing, but toassuage the sorrow of our loss with a prayer that the peace whichhis soul merited in life continue to be with his soul forevercand

. also [Q record 2. final expression of our gratitude that he madethe lives of all those who are gathered here this evening fullerand richer.

D.'. Onofre D,: Corpuz

The University of the Philippines faculty grieves. with the Viwrata family, and for itself, for it has lost a staunch .friend in Dr.Enrique T. Virata.

Dr. Virata never forgot even as he rose through the academicranks to the highest administrative positions that he was ofthe faculty and was always in his actuations invariably for thefaculty. As a mathematician, he knew the essence of things and

grasped truths simply and completely. Without fanfare, almost

anonymously and sometimes in the face of criticism, he made

the toughest financial decisions in favor of the faculty. For Dr..Virata was an academic man, first and foremost, who never.

lost sight of the meaning of a university and who believed that auniversity is nothing without its faculty. It was therefore justthat he was retired as University Professor - the highest ecadernie rank within the gift of the alma mater he served so well.

One recalls the low-pitched voice, the dignified mien, thebusiness manner that kept all comers at arm's length. Thusfar and no farther, the official person seemed to say. Yet thosewho dared to see him anyway, fortified with the; thought thateven lions can be bearded in their dens, were rewarded withthe kindest and sincerest and fullest attention; and, if one'srequest was reasonable and within his power to grant, immediateapproval and implementation. Dr. Vicata was a man of fewwords, and he cared little for "ifs": and "'buts."

Yes, we have reason to remember Dr. Viratn. He was ·De~of the College of Liberal Arts when we graduated An in 1948at the last general commencement exercises in V.P. Brmita. Hewas Dean when we were taken into the faculty soon after. Hewas Aniong President when we got our permanent appointment,perhaps much ahead of when it might have been, because weappealed to him about the futility of the faculty privilege ofexempting children of permanent faculty from t~jtion fees un•less faculty were given permanent appointments as soon lis pessible. Dr. Virata was Executive Vice-President when .we collected signatures from local V.P. fellows for a petition to pro.vide book allowances for local fellows similar to fellows abroad,and he conceded the justice of the petition and forthwith grantedit. Ir was also Dr. Virata ' in' the same capacity who 'first author.ized on our representations the payment of theses 'advisers. Thesewere long before demonstrations and .manifestoes-were to assailU.P. officialdom.

Dr. Virata might have been Ll.P. President, just as Recto mighthave been RP President. But under the old values, it rook morethen scholarship, personal ability, honesty and Integrity to getplaces,..and whatever else he. was, .Dr. Virata was not a politicalman.

Bevthat. as it rna)', Dr. Virara gave the best years of hislife to the U.P. - and those years are among the best yearsin the history of the University.

like the snuffing out of a quietly and steadily burning, ifdistant, star, the passing of Dr. Vieara will be mourned for a.long time by all who remember him.

"We mourn his passing, We shall always remember his pre.senoe. But we may console ourselves that we arc not all tbercompletely bereft. Provident man that he ",'as, he has providedfor us: his example remains; the good of his work is everywhere around us; and of course, one of his finest legacies tothe V.P. and to our country is his son, Secretary Virara.

It is very difficult for me to say a few words tonight because

we arc deeply grieved over the loss of 'my father, and. I, amnor going to speak to you tonight as' Secretary of Finance', asindicated in the program, but as a member of the family.

We appreciate the kind and understanding words that you

have spoken about my father. He lived a full life in this University 'since 1917 and it was by his own choice, his own determination. that he remained with you, with the University uncil

he retired. He liked you, and that is why he stayed.

On this occasion, J would like to express to you all thegratitude of my mother, my brother. And my sister, his brotherand his sisters and other members of the family. We wouldlike to extend his services to the University by creating ascholarship fund in his name. Thus, we hope to perpetuate thethings he hoped to achieve during his long service to the

University of the Philippines.

• A PIUMEIl FOil FIlESHMEN

BY DR. SALVADOR P. LOPEZPresident! University of the Philippine!

(Remarks lit the opening exercises, University 0/ the Ph;lippineJ, ]fme 13, 1973)

More than forty years ago, as a lad ·of 16. on a day likethis, I first came to rhis University as a student. Therefore Iknow exactly how you Ieel this morning. You are happily

, ·e~cired and ..full of hopeful anticipation. And you are more

than j~S( a 'bir pleased with yourself, pleased and proud 'be

cause you havemade it (0 the University of the Philippines.

You have reason to be excited. You are ··entering upon-wbee you will 'hereafter remember as the happiest, most formula

'rive period of your life. During 2. period of from four to

eight years, depending on the course you intend to pursue,you will be exposed to ell kinds of people, reachers, fellowstudents and other members of the community, and to all kinds·of ideas, 'realities and situations, and you will be on your own.

Above ~t1. you have a right to feel pleased with yourself,&r you are one of about two thousand freshmen newly admitted~ntO the University, out of fourteen thousand who took the

qualifying tests. You are the cream on rap of the milk-bottle,before the bottle is shaken or the milk homogenized.

This morning 'J am expected to give you some bits of useful

> advice. you could use advice, and J have a lot of advice to

<offer, out. .of the. accumulated experience and wisdom of sixyears as ~ student and nearly rive years as University president.

~J: could be talking here, dishing out advice to you, all day,

, Where should we begin? I think we might begin with themost basic thing of all-the problem of orientation, physicalas well as intellectual. This is a campus of nearly 500 hectares,perhaps' the 'largest 'developed university campus anywhere, so,

'you must learn how to go from place to place quickly andcheaply, without wearing yourself out. Here I realty feel sorry

. for you, ] was a student in the old V,P. campus in Manilaand we did everything we had to do in that small quadrangleat Padre. Faure. By contrast, the Diliman campus is so vast thatit contains nor only the usual array of academic buildings andspeciousvgrounds but also a large complex of houses, restaurants,canteens, shops, chapels, an alumni center, a hospital. a doghospital, two banks, several playgrounds, an tg.hole golf

• ,J

course, an arboretum, pastures, a post office, a weather bureau,an atomic reactor, a security force, e Fire' station, plus 'squattersgalore, including an entire barrio full of them. You must getto know the community, preferably on foot (that's how I gotmy own orientation in 1969, because of a' daily routine of

walking and jogging around the campus from six in the morning). Eventually, of course, you will have to master the ikoltransport system on the campus.

I have spoken of Dillman as a physical reality, as a community of buildings and homes and people, because it is in manyways unique, the only one of irs kind in the country.' It hasa rare ambiance, a special quality of the atmosphere; visitorsand residents alike feel 'it as soon as they enter University

Avenue,You, too, will come to understand what it is and like it,

perhaps even love it.Bur the more difficult aspect of your D.P, orientation will

be intellectual in nature. No matter what region, social milieu

or high school you come from, you will experience somerhingof an astringent shock during your initial immersion into, theacademe of Diliman. There is, in general, a certain informality

and casualness, a free and easy quality, even a' (Ouch of irreverence, in personal attitude and conduct and in. interpersonalrelations. There is a sense of freedom and emancipation, ofbeing on your own and master of yourself 'that adds up to whatmight be called the V.P. mystique. Most people get used to it,adjust to it, and as I have said, even learn to like it and loveit. But there are a few who are ,sc~red of it, who can't adjustto ir, who don't like it at all, and so decide to decamp end goaway.

Dllimen has, of course, been much quieter since martial law.It is not as "exciting" in that sense as it used to be. But don'tlee this fool you. There are still a lot of exciting things 'todo in <lass or outside class, in theatre or concert hall, in gym,swimming pool or playground, in laboratory or library; or onthe cool grass, under a spreading acacia tree.

Now, for some more specific pcinters :

1. Abntlt yosrr henlth.-Health is your greatest single asset,

so; watch it carefully. Mind yOtH nourishment. Although thefood in the cafeteria i~ not for gourmets, it is subsranrial.

Food, like everything else, is expensive, bur if it is a question

of choosing between a good meal or a movie, go for the food.You can't study on an empty stomach. We have a good Uni

versity hospital manned by competent doctors and nurses. Use

it whenever necessary. A w~rd about love, sex and marriage.which are not necessarily synonymous. I assume you already know

that babies arc not brought by the stork. So, if you shouldfall in love with anyone or imagine you do, beware of the

sexual and matrimonial complications. I do not recommendmarriage before graduation. It is messy and difficult at best.

2. Ahor/l 'Jollr financeJ.-If you have affluent parents or if

you hold a scholarship, you are lucky. Try to keep your

scholarship by maintaining the requisite academic standing. Ifyou don't have a scholarship, you can work hard to get one.

Some students are able to hold a scholarship until graduation.Ir can be done. We now have an expanded gram-in-aid program with a stipend for living expenses added to free tuition

and a book allowance. This program is one of the most im

portant innovations of our administration, and we are quite

proud of it. It takes care of the average student from a poorfamily who cannot make the high grades required by mo~t

scholarships. Alter all, the bulk of those who achieve success

after graduation comes from this nroup rather than from theexclusive club of emil Idlld.eJ.

We are trying to keep the COSt of studying and living inthe V.P. as low as possible. But the price of everything is

going up all the time. I favor free university education for

all who qualify, a system which exists in Europe and elsewhere;

short of this, the next best thing is to charge tuition fees and

living costs on the basis of ability to pay. lt is a way ofmaking the rich help pay for the poor, Even so, our tuition fees

are from half to a fifth that charged by some other comparable universities.

3. About )'Of" JluJin-Develop proper study habits. anddo this right away. Learn to usc the University Library as wellas your unit library to best advantage; they arc your mostuseful tools of .leaming and study. Look for the best teachersand stick with them; provided j'ou agree that the best arc

those who inspire and drive their srudcnrs and not the free.and-easy ones. Get a good academic adviser and seek out a com.

petent and sympathetic 'guidance counsellor. Professors are avail,able for consultation by students; take advantage of this and don'tbe shy, they are paid to serve you. And don't forger: the Dean

of Students is always there ready to help you if you need adviceor assistance.

4. Aho/II ;oininJ? student gmt/pJ.-Student government hasbeen suspended under martial law, but will likely be restoredsoon, perhaps gradually, in modified form. It certainly will neveragain be what it was before' martial law-an exaggerated kind ofpoliticking that went to ridiculous lengths and became a travestyof what it was meant to be. Meanwhile, exercise good judgment in joining and participating in the activities of the fraternities. Some are good, others not so good. In recent months,about twenty fratemiry members involved in violent rumbleswere penalized with suspension of from two weeks to onesemester, prevention from grnduarion and in some cases, expulsion, So, beware.

)!

Campus organizations, including fraternities, satisfy an instinc

tive need of students for comradeship, and that is why it hasbeen thought inadvisable to abolish them. On the. other hand,

the University cannot tolerate practices that often lead to mayhemand homicide. Therefore. we would like to encourage studentsto join organizations dedicated to enlightened cultural pursuits

rather than to the survivals of tribal custom or the Mafia code.

5. About the tbings the V.P. has tt; o!fer.-The concert

which the V.P. Symphony Orchestra under 'the baton of Dr.Eliseo Pajaro presented this morning is just a sample of the

many "goodies" which the University has to offer: concerts,recitals, art exhibits, plays, folk dance and ballet, sports andathletics, etc. I know that many of yOll would rather see abasketball game than listen to sympbomc music, but jlldgingfrom your enthusiastic applause-c-esperially of the' rare pianistic

talent of Iz-year old Cecile Llced-c-there's at least the hopethat you are prepared to give culture a chance.

I agree with Leonard Bernstein when he says that cultureis like spinach: you may not like it at f irst, but it's good for

your health-your intellectual and spiritual health, that is-and there's a chance that you may even develop a taste for it

and grow to like it.

Remember that most of the cultural presentations on thecampus are free, being financed by the cultural fee which youhave already paid. Thus, this morning's concert is only It foretasteof the year's cultural program; it is the first "dividend" on

your cultural investment.

Now, for one final word of warning. The U.P. drop-out

rates between semesters and from one academic year, to the next

are higher than we would like them to be. We have hoped

to lower these rates by a rigorous screening of Iresbmen who

enter the gates, but they are still high and represent a woeful

waste of human and material resources. So, think of the sacrifice

of your parents, think of your future, and when you find yourself

falling behind, make a powerful resolve to study, study, study.

There's no substitute for study.

Finally, a word of encouragement. Yours is (he first class to

enter the University under martial law. For most of you who

have come to study seriously and diligently for the career or

profession of your choice, this should make no difference. In

fact. martial law would be just your cup of tea. As for those

a very few, I hope-who have come expecting to have an

exciting career in student activism, the message is clear; while ameasure of academic freedom is afforded everyone, those engaged

in overt acts of subversion, disorder or violence of any kind, do

so only at their risk. However, I should hasten to reassure you:

martial law cannot inhibit human thought, and the librariesand laboratories of the University continue to be impregnable

citadels of the human mind.

The University of the Philippines will accomplish the hisroric,

traditional mission entrusted to it, in season or out of season, in

all kinds of political weather. fnir or foul: as critic o( society,

agent of change, and instrument of national development, .as

well as center for self-realization and proving-ground for the

leaders of tomorrow, of whom, I have no doubt, some .willcome from Class 1977.

r wish all of you good studying, and all the luck in (he'world.

The question of the American presence in Asia has agitated

the minds of many people not only on both sides of the

Pacific but everywhere. At the height of the Vietnam war clamorons crowds in Aain, Europe, latin America, Africa, and inthe United States itself demanded to know what on earthAmericans were doing in Vietnam, what right they had to he'there, and to remain there, etc. In Tokyo, Manila and NewDelhi, as well as' in Paris, Donn and Rome, angry students

brandished placards that read, "Yankee, Go Home!" whilesimilar anti-war crowds in Washington. D.C, New YOlk and

.San Francisco noisily demanded that Ame~ican ttl)0JJS get out

.,.,.of Vietnam, rhus making it virtually unanimous.Bur not quite. Sober students of his torr, who will not ignore

the Iacts of history in favor of current fashionable slogans,

know better than to say, "Yes. Americans should pull outof Asia; they have no business being there"-a statement which

IS not only unhisrcrical but blithely assumes that in the atomic

age, which also happens to be the elecuonic age anJ the spaceage, it is possible to delimit the power and influence of stateswithin their geographical frontiers. or erect airtight walls betweencontinents, or build a Fortress America,

People oflen forget thar .the United States was a Pecifiepower long before it became an Atlantic power. Though essentially an ethnic and cultural child of europe, the Americannation decided very early in its history to stand aloof fromEuropean affairs and to keep Europe out of American affairs.President \Vashington's injunction against "entangling alliances"and President Monroe's proclamation of the doctrine that bearshis name long rendered inviolate the American policy of isolation from Europe,

By contrast, DO such reserve characterized American policyin .Asiu. and the Pacific. With the cession of Call(ornia in 1848.the: American Republic fjnall}' spanned .rbe continent from the

Atlantic to the Pacific, Six years later, Commodore Perry forced

Japan to open its doors to American shipping .and c~mmercc.

In 1864 an American officer Jed an army which Olmsted theChinese imperial government to put down the Taiping Rebellion.

The purchase of Alaska was consummated in 1867, the annexation of Hawaii in 1898, and the cession of the Philippines in

1899. The United States cooperated with other powers inq'uclling the Bolter Uprising of 1900. and in 1905 President

Theodore Roosevelt negotiated the peace treaty that ended the

Russo-Japanese war. During the present century, the United

States became most deeply involved in the affairs of Asiathrough its support of the Open Door policy in China, the

annexation And administration of the Philippines, the defeatand occupation of japan, and the defense of South Korea andSouth Viernnm.·

These facts of history should remind us that the UnitedStates did not suddenly come barging into Asia yesterday orthe dar before yesterday, On the other hand. ir is not mypurpose to pass moral judgment on the t\mericnn penetrationinto Asia. Perhaps the United States would have done betterto have stayed on irs side of the Pari Fie, leaving Asia alone.

But the American presence in Asia and the Pacific, lasting nowfor more than a century, has created a pattern of relationships

which sustains the balance of power in the region. A sudden

and complete American withdrawal would therefore create a

dangerous power vacuum in the' area. Since nature is .said 10

abhor a vacuum, we may expect the winds of nee-imperialistambition to blow from all directions, exposing Southeast .Asiato a tempest of incalculable violence.

There are those who argue that a total American pulloutfrom Asia would not affect the fundamental interests of theUnited States. Capitalizing on the unpopularity of the Vietnam

war, these critics are reminiscent of those who, thirty years ago,-similarfy deplored America's participation in World War II

and scornfully referred to it as "J;DR's war against Hider".To such critics the Vietnam war, like the Korean war, was"the wrong war, at the wrong time, in the wrong place".

The plain historic-al fact, however, is that the defense of both

Korea and South Vietnam was part of the series of countermeasures which the free world under United States leadership

has taken since the end of World \Var n in order to .arrestthe match of Communist power. These counter-measures starredwith the defense of Berlin and have since included. the timelyand effective action to safeguard Greece. Turkey, Korea, Lebanon.the Congo, Laos, and India against Communist subversionand aggression.

The immediate problem is to enable the Asi:1D countries [0

resist the crushing tropism of Communist China. President Marcos,addressing the United States Congress in September 1966, saidon this point: "For the present and in the years .immediarelyahead, Communist China's neighbors cannot expect, singlyor together, to balance China's crucial margin of nuclear powerwithout the assistance of non·Asian countries like the UnitedStates. There is in consequence a new disposition to regardAmerica's deterrent power in Asi.:;l as a necesaiey for theduration of time requi red by the Asian .nations to develop

their own system of regional security supported by whar they

hope would have become a greatly strengthened United Nations."

Chinn, which used to call itself the Middle Kingdom, stands

in the very heart of Asia. as large as Iif~ itself. We cannot. evenif we wished, make it vanish by magic or by prayer. We know

we have fa live with it and come to terms with it .. Just as we•admire the economic achievements of post-war Japan-a nationonce {eared as .an enemy-so we applaud the efforts of theChinese people' to develop their (oumry, to improve the con-. . ~

ditions of their "life, and to make China respected as a powernot only in Asia. but in. the world.

The Soviet 'Union, having achieved nuclear parity with the

United States •.is animated by a compulsive ambition to move into

any area where n competing power or group of powers is in

retreat. This explains the Soviet incursions into the Mediterranean,

the Indian Ocean, and the South China Sea. Moscow's quarrel

with Peking is primarily a naked .conflict of national interest

masquerading as a hitter controversy over socialisr· dogma.

Since two.thirds of Soviet territor}' lies if? Asil!-, the USSR has

as much right as any Asian c~untry and. indeed, a better right

than the United States to be regarded as an Asian power.

Moscow can, therefore, be expected to press for increasing

power and influence in Asia, including East and. Southeast

Asia. 'It will ~eek power and influence in the military and

economic domain rather than in the political and ideological,

which China may 'be expected to pre-empt for itself.

Japan, the new economic Superpower, might have beencontent to continue indefinitely in this role but for the mis

givings regarding its economic supremacy and future securitywhich' have been aroused by Washington's assiduous cultivation

of i- detente with Peking and- Moscow. Premier Tanaka rushed

to Peking in the wake of President Nixon's historic visit

in order 10 ensure that Japan' will not be left (Jut of an)'

political orcconomic opportunities that may be opened up in

China. Japan is understandably concerned chat the Nixon

policy of detente ~ith Peking and Moscow would eventually

result in the weakening of existing alliances and security

arrangements, including that between the United States BOllJapan. Moreover, Japan realizes that its ·shipping lanes. through

Southeast Asia and' its life-line to the Middle East would he

seriously endangered.' Japan is therefore under heavy pressure ro

reduce irs dependence on American military protection and economic' bounty, and ,·... ill be compelled to rearm, perhaps even go

nuclear, 'in order to achieve eventual parity with the UnitedStares, the Soviet Union and China. The implications of the

revival of the Japanese dream of hegemony over East Asia arcdear and portentous.

It is in the context of these developments that American

withdrawal from Asia should be considered. I submit that .a

policy of withdrawal w~uld be incompatible with Americanp?wer. and responsibility. It would prove that the United

States, which twice in a generation had gone to the rescue ofEurope, has" abandoned its historic vocation for the defense

of freedom and justice in the world. It may indicate thatthis nation which has enjoyed political, economic and militarysupremacy for barely a score of years has grown uncertain

and tired, and that it is ready by a deliberate policy of retreat

~nd withdrawal to sink to th~ level 6f a second-class Power," ~

. ,

Such a hypothesis must be rejected, A nation declines not

by deliberate choice-bee from Jack of vision and failure of nerve.If the United States was prepared (0 mount a massive challenge·

to Soviet ambitions in order to help preserve the freedom andintegrity of Western Europe-not even shrinking from .... the '

risk. of nuclear war to do so-c-by what logic of history is it

now contended that it should withdraw from Asia and abandon

the Asian peoples to the tender mercies of ancient Orientaldespotisms or modem ··totalitarian 'tyraiuiies? ... ~ : ..

We would like to sec the United States nialnt~i!1· a presencein Asia, not to fight any marc W~fS but to deter· others frommaking war, not to dominate and exploit but to' help .preventany power fmm dominating and exploiting the region; in short;

to keep the region in balance, resting opon anew power 'equationchat would afford smaller countries like tile Philippines broader'options in domestic and' intemationa; affairs, ',,'

I realize that i am voicing rhoughn that are quill' un

fashionable, perhaps even unpopular, in the context of the

policy of detente and accommodation which President'Richar:d

Nixon and Dr: Henry Kissinger heve : boldly .initiated ro

wards Peking and Moscow. The United States and China now

maintain quasi-diplomatic relaricns :with each other, while

Chairman leonid Brezhncv Is an honored State Guest- -jn

\Y/ashington;

But it is precisely at a time" when things' 'seem to go so

well, when sweetness and light seem to dominate the inrema

tional horizon when an era of peaceful co-existence seemsto be at hand'thar we should remind ourselves that the ancient

contest between two ways of life, two philosophies of' the

human order, has not been finally concluded. The struggle' for

the minds of men is not ended just because President Nixon

has partaken of a lavish Chinese dinner hosted .by Mr. Chou En.

lai in Peking or has had an intimate tete-a.tete 'With Chairman

Brezhnev at Camp David. .We will do well to remember :t~.3:~

Mr.. Chou En-lai .and Chairman Drezhnev don't think so

either.

Rather, we should, regard this growing detente between the

Great Powers as well as the warm camaraderie developing among

their leaders as proof that because of the unacceprablevrisk of

nuclear war, they have decided to scrap 'the cold war and im

plicitly agree to shifr the ideological struggle to the -political,

economic and cultural fields, and in certain unavoidable' cir-'

cumsrances to the arena of limited conventional war.

Ir is not inappropriate to offer these' reflections nod -faspeak these words of caution at this time and place.' For "us

Filipinos, it is our way of saying to our American friends that

the ties that bind our two nations arc 'more priceless an~ren~

during. than th~ overwhelming panoply or power which Clark

Air Base represents.· The bonds: that hold us together .are the

bonds of shared sacrifice on behalf of human liberty, Ii common

allegiance to the principles of freedom and democracy, and a

common hope in (he emergence of a 'world in. which e'lfu~!i~y

and justice lor all men and, all nations will prevail. .

These values are valid for' all mankind, including the peoplesof Asia, and an American presence in Asia would have no-more'cogent justification than rhar- it- would strengthen, the will 'Of the

Asian -peoples to achieve th~$e values and tQ live by·· them.'

renews the temporary appointment for a period of one or tWO

years, bur in no case exceeding five years from the date of theinitial appointment.

"(c) Unless within the said five-year period an Instrucrorwith a temporary appoinrmenr, by reason of having obtained agraduate degree or a professional degree requiring at least fiveyears of academic work or by reason of outstanding academic

or professional achievement is recommended for promotion rc

the rank of Assistant Professor by the Dean Or Director of his

unit with the concurrence of the Chancellor or the President,his membership in the faculty shall terminate; provided, that in

the case of Instructors holding temporary appointments at the

time these rules are adopted, the five-year period shall be reck

oned from the date of adoption. However, nothing herein pro

vided shall deprive any instructor of permanent status alreadyheld at the time of the adoption of these rules.

"An. 178. Assistant Profcssors.c-c'Ihe initial appointment in

the University to the rank of Assistant Professor shall be tem

porary in character and for a period not exceeding three years.

"Art. 179. Associate Professors.-The initial appointment in

the University to the rank of Associate Professor shall be tern.pcrary in character and for a period nor exceeding two years. A

ulty promotions. . ."Arr. 179a. Profcssors.c-c'Ihe initial appointment 10 the UOt

versity to the rank of Professor shall be for a period of one

initially appointed in the University to the rank of instructor

is modified. Wiehin the maximum probationary period of live

years, an instructor is either promoted to the rank of assistantprofessor on the basis of his having a graduate degree or a pro.

fessional degree requiring at least five years of academic work

or outstanding academic or professicual achievement, Or his ap,

pointmenr is terminated. However, instructors holding perma,

nent appointments at the rime of the adoption of these rules may

remain on the faculry, bur their rank will be frozen at the instruc

tor level unless they qualify for promotion to assistant professor

on rhe bases of specified criteria.

"3, A minimum qualification is set for initial appointmentin the University to the rank of assisranr professor.

"4. To give the University greater flexibility in recruitmentof its faculty, provision is made for appoinrmenrs on the con

tract basis with a fixed term. These appointments will be covered

by conditions set in the contracr ;\OJ not by the general provisions prescribed in articles 177 to 179c."

marketing strategies for the different products of the variousland grants. Corollary to this, he conducts marketing research,prepares reports, makes studies and formulates plans designedto insure the most efficient and effective ways of optimizing the

tide from "Assistant to the Manager on Sales" to "Marketing

Officer."

(Remark! on the OCCilJiOl1 of the Installation 0/ Mr. Quintill SalasDoromal 4J Sixth President 0/ Silliman Unirersitv, At/gUlt 28, 1973)

BY DR. SALYADOR P. LOPEZPresident 0/ the University of the Philippines

•The anni versary of a university's founding, particularly when

it marks nearly three-quarters of a century of service to the people.

is a time of joy and thanksgiving. It suggests that the peoplehave kept faith with the University. because first of .all it haskept faith with the people

Most Filipinos cherish the belief that education is a mean"to an end. and that end is ibdividua! and national perfection.

To them, a university is the key with which mao)' doors arcunlocked: doors leading to self-realization and national advancement, to the achievement of a better and more meaningful lifefor all.

Thus, for seventy-two years since its founding in 1901, Sillimanhas merited the respect of our people and commanded Ours byquietly devoting itself to the education of free men and women.By loyally pursuing this task, Silliman has earned the undying

gratitude of our nation.

But, today, Silliman is marking yet another milestone: theinstallation of its new president, Mr. Quintin Salas DoromaLPresident Dcromal joins II distinguished company of educatorswho, as presidents of Silliman, have helped shape the characterof Philippine education- A new president marks the end of anera and the beginning of another, for the president of a universityleaves the imprint of his personality, his style of life and work,his ideas and values upon the university he serves- Inevitably,therefore, a new president means change-

The scope and direction of that- 'change will of course dependon President Doromal's concept of the role Silliman must playat chis crucial period of our history. We dare to affirm, however,that nothing will alter Silliman's basic commitment to the pursuitof truth, the dissemination and advancement of knowledge,

service to the community, and the development of individuals

capable of realizing their fullest potential, in freedom and re

sponsibiliry. as members of a JUSt and compassionate society.We arc gathered here this morning-representatives of many

Philippine universities holding somewhat differing outlooks on

life, somewhat differing approaches to knowledge. somewhat

differing views of what man is and his place in the scheme ofthings. These differences, however, cannot conceal the Iundamental mutuality of interest and commonality of purpose that

bind our universities together, \X'e share a common dedicationto the welfare of the Filipino people through the education of the

young in accordance with principles that enshrine the dignity and

worth of the human person and the integrity of the human soul-

All the universities of our land participate in this commonvocation and destiny. At this juncture of our nation's history, the

responsibility of the universities is particularly grave and urgent.They haw a duty to stand together and to work together in order{a keep the flame of reason and scholarship burning even asthe nation seeks Irs ultimate salvation with unclouded vision,through disciplined courage and resolute enterprise.

It is my great pleasure, in behalf of the Philippine institutionsof higher learning here represented, to greet Silliman Universityon the seventy-second anniversary of its founding. To Mr. QuintinSalas Doromal, who today takes the helm of this great Universityas irs sixth President, 'We extend our warmest congratulationsand our" earnest pledge of mutual cooperation. We welcome himto the confraternity of University Rectors and Presidents, battlescarred and somewhat war-weary, yet indefatigably committedto the unending enterprise of culture and civilization. Ferventlywe pray that he rna}' succeed in holding Silliman 10 the historicvocation and destiny which it shares with ours-

U.P. Responsibility on Subjects Under YCAP Dud Policyon New Society

The University must achieve substantial compliance with therequirements regarding the Youth Civic Action program, thestudy of the Philippine constitution, population education, landreform and taxation in the undergraduate and pre-collegiateprograms.

Since these are required for graduating students beginningwith academic year 1973-1974, each unit must take long-rangeplans in order that our undergraduate and pre-collegiate Stu-

dents can conform with these requirements. Seminars on the Philip

pine constitution, population education, land reform and taxarion should be planned for the graduating students. Each unit

is expected to send a report to the Office regarding its plans

for implementation of all these requirements.1. Youth Civic Action Program (YCAP)

The objectives of the Youth Civic Action Program areas follows:

(a) To orient the youth and the community to the

ideals and goals of the New Society.(b) To 'imbue the youth with social and civic con

sciousness and social responsibility and a desire to parti

cipate in the development of one's community through

the wise use and conservation of both human and materialresources.

(c) To make the youth realize the role they must play

in the socio-economic development of the country.(d) To involve the youth in the development of their

communities.

(e) To give more meaning to school experiencethrough the actual application of learning in the solution of community problems.

(f) To instill love for and pride in our country andpeople, particularly through the revival of those aspects

of our cultural heritage that are supportive of the goalsof the New Society. •

(g) To develop citizens who are upright, clean, orderly, law-abiding, physically fit and God-loving.

(h) To guide the youth in forming a more realisticperspective of life.

The faculty should plan the integration of YCAP requirementswith existing COurses. Units that include field work or prac

ticum in some of their required courses including Social Orientarion and ROTC may be considered as having complied withthe YCAP regulations. Forms certifying that graduating Stu

dents have complied with this requirement should be duly accomplished.

2. Philippine ConstitutionSection 8 (3) of Article XV (General Provisions} of

the Revised Philippine Constitution provides: "The

~study of the Constitution shall be parr of the curricula inall schools."

The study of the Philippine Constitution should be oneof the required electives in the General Education (G.£.)program. However, for the Juniors and Seniors. this re

quirement may be met by integrating it in relevant coursesor if this is nor possible, by conducting seminars. For theelementary and secondary schools, it should be integratedwith social studies.

3. Population Education

Presidential Decree No. 79 revised the Population Actof Nineteen Hundred and Seventy-one-now known as theRevised Population Act of the Philippines.

The Dean of the Population Institute, as one of themembers of the Board of Commissioners of the Population Commission (POPCOM) has actively participatedin tbe planning of rhe provisions of the Revised Decree.In this connection, each unit is enjoined to determinehow it may conform with some provisions which are relevant to its programs. Attention is called to the Declaration of Policy and some purposes and objective'S of thePOPCOM which our academic program may look into.

C. Must not be a recipient of another chair;d. Must be a U.P. alumnus; and

The chair should be awarded to an outstanding member ofthe faculty of education, a distinguished teacher and lor reo

of Dean Francisco Benitez, the first dean of the College.

The Board accepted with appreciation the following donations

for professorial chairs and research professorships beginning

with the second semester, academic year 19i3-1974:

The Board noted that the Medicare Commission has given

discretion to individual hospitals to determine the disposition

of professional fees accruing from services rendered by govern

ment physicians receiving fixed compensation. Since residentphysicians and consultants receive fixed compensation. they'

should nor anymore be paid additional compensation for the

same service rendered. Considering that the major portion of

the hospitalization fund is spent in the University Health Service

whose operation and maintenance. including salaries of doctors,

nurses, dentists and other personnel and subsistence of patients

are financed from the University funds, it is only fair that re

imburscment of expenses for room and board. drugs. laboratory

examinations and more especially professional fees accruing (0

the Health Service and physicians hom Medicare, should go tv

the University.

The chair shall be in the general field of education, 50 that

it can be given to anyone in the College of Education who has

performed exceptionally in a particular field. whether in the

foundations courses. professional courses, or Other areas, except

in Science Education. in which a professorial chair alreadyexists.

THE V.P. AS A MULTICAMPUS UNIVERSITY

by DR. SALVADOR P. LOPEZPresident, University 0/ the Philippines

(Speech at a C011I'o,at;0I1' sponsored by the V.P. onus at Padre Faura, Manila, September 20, 1973.)

It indicated the States intention to integrate and coordinate theWhether this institution will survive, and not only survive but state colleges and universities that have proliferated around theprosper, remains to be seen.

of the Philippinesit is in operation,

laban. No benet proof is needed to show that the' Universityof the Philippines System is under continuing review, and thatin the months and years to come, it will operate under thepragmatic rule that the University of the Philippines must do

what it V.'85 set up to do, and do it better than any otherinstitution.

The University of the Philippines has now six external units:Manila, Baguio, Clark, Iloilo. Cebu, and Tacloban. A seventhin Davao, is in prospect. They serve different regions andtherefore, of necessity, differ from one another. They arcbeing encouraged to devise development programs tailored tothe particular circumstances and needs of the area Or regionswhere they are located. They are also at varying stages of devel

opment - in enrollment, faculty and physical facilities. Bya rule of thumb. we have adopted the principle that externalunits which do not grow and therefore fail to prove theirviability, run the risk of being phased out. By another ruleof thumb. we have let it be known that each external unit

•~Uld be given a special budget of PI million each in order

meet the challenge of viability.In the end, the future of the external units will depend on

a decision which the national government must make regarding

the entire system of higher education and, in particular, thepublic sector of higher education. Under the proposal of thePresidential Commission to Survey Philippine Education (PCSPE), the University of the Philippines would stand at the apex

of the public system of higher education as the National University of the Philippines (NUP). There would be three regional

universities. one in Luzon, one in the Visayas, and one in Mindanao (MSU). Other state colleges and universities, except tech

nical and reacher- training institutions, will be affiliated with

these regional universities.Under the University of the Philippines System, the V.P.

would be free to establish and maintain regional branches whichwould eventually develop into autonomous universities.

Under the PCSPE proposal, the U.P. would have the possi-bility of maintaining, like Harvard, a certain posture of

•

randeur and excellence in isolation from the ocher educeonal institutions, public or private. Thus it could, if it

wished, pursue its destiny as an elitist institution dedicatedto elitist 'ideals and objectives.

Under the U.P. System, on the other hand, the Universitywould maintain not just one Or two citadels of excellence inDiliman and Los Banos, it would proceed on the assumptionthat, as the nation grows, multiple centers of excellence wouldgrow around the CQUOtey. These centers of excellence wouldstrengthen each other by mutual interaction, but without anycenter draining off the excellence of another. This is the prin- ~

ciple that underlies the multi campus universities in the UnitedStates - Californa, New York, Wisconsin, etc. Thus, .. inCalifornia, for example, the recognized excellence of Berkeley,by no means inferrer to that of Harvard, is nOI in any waydiminished by the cact that it is only one of a dozen membersof the University ¢If California System.

Obviously, I'm partial to the University

System. It has bee» decreed into existence,and I am confident it will grow.

Since the 25-odi state colleges and universities now account for only 8 en 9 per cent of the country's total collegiateenrollment, there H; no fear that they will expand only at the

• expense of private institutions. The institution of the NationalCET means, in aIY case. that college education will now belimited to a smaler number than heretofore. Consequenrly,the marginal colhges - public or private: - will have La

dose, but their closure will only serve to magnify the responsibiliry of institutions like the University of the Philippines.

If it is necessary to rationalize OUr national system of highereducation and to determine the role and place of the Universityof the Philippines within that system, it is equally necessary

to rationalize the content of the education offered by the

University. It goes without saying that the kind of educationwe should have is determined by the individual's need to realizehis potential and to fulfill himself, and by the requirements of

national development. Since our resources are limited, OUr educational goals must also be limited to the essentials. We cannot afford waste. Thus, we must not only arrest but reversethe trend towards unnecessary proliferation of courses anddegree programs; we must stop the practice of multiplying

course offerings and lengthening degree programs from tWI)to four years Or from four to five or even six years.

This policy has been ordained by the Board of Regents andis now being readied for implementation as soon as possible.The goal is to enable the University to graduate more studentswithout increasing the cost per student, and without reducingstandards.

It might seem ironic to abbreviate courses and degree programs during a period characterized by an unprecedented explo

sion of knowledge. But precisely because universities can nolonger pretend to teach the student in four or six years all

there is to be learned, they must concentrate on teaching thestudent the art and science of learning so that for the rest of

his life he can continue to educate himself. The universitieswill be around to assist him in this life-long endeavor through

extension, refresher or continuing education programs of all

kinds, in all fields, after he leaves college.

The second category of problems we face has to do withthe quality of the learning and teaching in the University

since the imposition of martial law. Here, the situation is byno means uniform throughout the system or throughout the

curriculum. I have a suspicion that the colleges and universities in Manila may be enjoying a somewhat wider latitude asto what should be taught and how teaching should be conducted.As regards the curriculum, professors have no doubt foundthat it is far easier to teach the natural sciences and mathema

tics without fear of ideological constraints than the socialsciences and the humanities. For example, many professorshave come to me asking whether they can freely teach theBill of Rights of the Constitution, the history of the American,the French, the Russian, not to speak of the Philippine revolution, and the writings of Thomas Paine and Rousseau, Thomas

Jefferson and Abraham Lincoln, Marx and Lenin, or for thatmatter of Rizal, Mabini, M. H. del Pilar or Amado V. Hernandez.

I have a short answer to all these questions. According toPresident Marcos. I ten them, you can (each anything. anyphilosophy, or any "ism", but without championing or advocering any of them. They are not always satisfied with this answer,claiming that the act of teaching is in itself an act of advocacy,an act that implies belief in certain values Or a system ofvalues, and if it does not do these things, then it is not teachingat all.

I would be blind Or insensitive not to note that some studentsare unhappy. uneasy and impatient under existing constraints.while others are JUSt plain bored. They are looking for someexciting things to do and are frustrated not to find them any.more. My advice to these students is to look again, becauseif they look bard enough, they will find all the exciting challenges they require within the halls of this University.

To the young and avid of mind, nothing can equal the excitement of learning as new horizons of knowledge expand before him - excitement comparable to that aroused in the poe:by magic casements opening on the foam of perilous seas

in fairy lands forlorn.For my part, I must make a candid and rather selfish con

fession: in a certain sense it has become easier to run the Universiry. Most of the students have gone back: to their studies with

• vengeance, and the professors have gone back to their teaching with a will, thanks no doubt to the irresistible persuasionof martial law.

Life, after all, must go on, in fair weather or foul - if in

foul ·~veather, and while waiting for it to get better, it isopen to everyone to find renewed strength and confidencein the deepest recesses of the mind and heart where nothing andnobody, not even martial law, can intrude.

Anyone of them may eve-nhelp himself co adult fantasy tales, I seriously' doubt, however, if any among these scholars obtained his high markswith the help of the manghuhula or with tarot cards.

I will say, moreover, as part of cause for congratulations,that the youth-scholar of today is diffe'rent from the youthscholar of yesterday, who had the rather simplistic notionthat all one had to do to be a scholar was to study hard andget good grades. There may still be some of that breedaround. But the difference in the present youth. scholar ornot, lies in his epenness to tbe varied segments of life; he is..lso, more likely to find a relatedness in the experiences to

which he is exposed in the university and from such experi

ences, learns.

Such potential for openness is welcome, nay imperative, fortasks that are more complex than simply getting high grades.A teacher or student who focuses onlr on grades is out ofthe mainstream of university life. learning must extend beyond such narrow goals and involve the panorama of contradictions and complexities which exists in us and around us.Both teacher and studem cannot afford to ignore the pains,the nice and the not-so-nice truths in our present reality.Each one also recognizes his own suffering and his own pnvate dilemmas and hopefully is none the worse for it.

This is the task that lies before us all: to reconcile conformiry with creatively, discipline with freedom, what isdesirable with what is possible. In the difficult process. we ar:expected to keep alive and well the joy of learning. And in theend, we are expected to have achieved for each student :L

sense of his individual worth and a measure of self-determinaricn.

You notice my shift to the pronoun "we". I refer to bothfaculty and students. This is our joint enterprise; we atcommitted together to these goals. In short, we belong to

each other. No longer, though, in the old way of "teacher" and"student", each one fuliilling a role, confronting the other.None of the cold and bureaucratic. administrator, the unresponsive and impersonal professor. None, either, of the threarened helpless-feeling then manipulative student. Role-playing becomes sterile, if not futile, after some time. Rather,whenever student and teacher meet. it shall be an authentichuman encounter, and the learning situation shall be anexperience in sharing. in its most profound sense. The matrix of our relationships. in and our of our classrooms, carryingin it a continuous exchange of ideas anJ responses, is the academic enterprise.

The faculty, therefore. is with you in this adventure althoughoften merely as your guide through the open fields of learning in the university. They are committed to nurture curiosity and diversity, knowing that no two individuals learnexactly the same way. The faculty itself continues to changeand to keep in step with student needs. There is less of (he longone-sided lecture. the easy-to-correct examination, the certification of failure and success b)' one rigid set of criteria; no more ofsuch pronouncements that if you cannor make the grade in thisclass, then you cannot make the- grade in the university and if youcanner make the grade in the university, then you cannot makethe grade in this world. AU of these are anachronisms, and onlyserve to produce a travesty of the learning process.

How does the student see himself in this enterprise? Still asunderdog? As the object who is pushed through the mill, parted,

turned over, cut, quartered, fragmented, then pulled togetherjust in rime for graduation? What have you been learning)Have you learned to give teacher what he wants to hear? Haveyou learned the easier ways of passing examinations? How muchof your effort was truly independent? Have you in effect shortcircuited the learning adventure and missed the whole boat?If so then yOll have subverted the whole aim of the enterprise,which is to help you discover your true worth.

JUSt exactly what is this adventure that 1 speak of? Allowme to blow your mind. For a stan, let me jolt you, mildly.by stating that practically each of the major professions

you have set your sights on is undergoing some reconstructionor reform. When you graduate, you may find that that may bethe time when you will need to do the most study. So' if youthink you are being prepared right now for how to earn a lotof money or how to be a professor or a president of anything-

•

forger ir. There is no structured career in store in advance lor. anyone. What you are going through right now is part of a pro

cess that will continue the rest of your life. The process iscalled "education" and it guarantees no finished product at theend of your university experience.

I invite you, therefore, in the service of this process callededucation, to consider the mind-brain complex, the basic toolwith which you came ro the university.

~"e have a brain with billions of neurons, nearly half ofwhich are not even used during our lifetime. It is an infinitelycomplex computer system beside which the world's most corn.

plex computer set-up is nothing by comparison. But like anycomputer, however, you get out of it only whatever you put in.However there are still nooks and corners and whole areas stillunexplored and unused.

What does the mind-brain complex do? It presides over theintegration of your intellect. your feeling life and your behavior.As far as your intellect is concerned, your brain will allow youto develop new angles of vision, new perspectives, new andimaginative solutions to chronic problems. It will help you

• translate your intuitive tinkering into palpable ideas. But here's

the rub. The intellect requires some discipline. Not disciplineof the intimidating kind such as what students feel when theyfed intimidated by math, history or English literature. The discipline required is that which is derived from reason. Themind allows you to do two things given only to man: to reasonand to dream. You have to learn where one ends and the otherbegins. The discipline of the intellect is non-oppressive; it is 111

fan the very instrument of your liberation. It is what becomesdistinctively human, when knowledge rhar is thus acquired andunderstood is translated into, and used for, human situations. Itis used to understand oneself and others and together to help persevere, despite obstacles, in promoting value system of cooperationand social concern. From rational questioning and rational solving,we become active participants in planning and facilitating changeinstead of allowing it to take us by surprise, unprepared. Thisis what President Lopez meant when he said that psychologyand psychiatry are not only in charge of neurotics and psychoticsbut also are asked ro stand alongside the "normals;' such asyou and I, -on the forefront of change. Together, we have toevaluate the directions of change and help forge the values ofthe Society we want for tomorrow.

Feeling and behavior are integral parts of the mechanism-but at no point and in no situation is the cortex of the brainto be bypassed. No learning can ever occur through feeling andbehavior alone; the intellect must be consulted. Otherwise, youwill be merely substituting one insanity for another.

I am not suggesting, by these somber tones, that we all leadlives of quiet desperation. And when I invite you to the joyof learning. I am not mundanely using that shopworn prefix"the joy of-" the way it is used for practically anythings.g. the joy of cooking, the joy of gardening, the joy of sex,etc. ... The joy of learning will hopefully one day bring usmusic still waiting to be composed, channels of perception stillto be explored, ways of human living and relating still to betried and experienced. To bring Out the quintessence of whatis human, (Q rediscover ourselves in others, and in learning to

understand. reach Out and touch others a little more sofc1ythis is involvement of the most sublime order, an activism noless ardent, no less fervent, than the kind we knew before.

The people in the university in this joint enterprise is a microcosm of the Philippine society; we have here representativesfrom nearly all economic levels. It is possible that what happenshere may also be a microcosm of what could happen in the restof the country, with one difference, however, in that here iswhere your intellect is prepared and trained to grapple withold and new problems, with frustrations, with pain. The societyon this campus is still an open, pluralistic one. It is committedto help each member, teacher and student, despite diversity in

individual talent and aspiration, to discover and develop his ownunique sense of wcrrh.

I repeat, we still belong to each other, beyond politics andeconomics, in our quest not only for our individual worth, butin our common search for truth and meaning in life.

HISTORICAL PAPERS AND DOCUMENTSEDUCATION BY THE YEAR 2000

By DR. SALVADOR P. LOPEZ

President of the University of the Philippines

Address at the Philippine College of Commerce, 7 October 1973

115

•

•

I propose to consider with you some answers to the intriguingQuestion; "What will be the most important developments illthe field of education between now and the year 200D?"

It seems appropriate to discuss this topic in the Philippine

College of Commerce, one of the oldest public institutions of

higher learning in the Philippines, which this year observes

its 69th anniversary, thus antedating the University of the

Philippines by four years. Since the PCC appears co be reasonably

hale and hearty as it approaches the Biblical age of three score

and ten, there is every reason to believe that it is good for at

least another seventy yeats. By this reckoning, the PCC should

survive through the year 2000, and is therefore a suitable place

to discuss what education will be like in the 21st century of the

Christian era.

An exercise in fururclcey, however, is fraught with danger,

and the limitations of such an exercise in the field of educationaldevelopment must be candidly recognized. Thus, prediction can

only be made in general terms and it may not apply specifically

or in particular to the Philippine situation. It is also bound to be

impressionistic since developments can only be adumbrated but

not described in derail.

Basic Assumplions

A forecast of educational developments would necessarily be

based on certain assumptions about human nature and the character of society. Barring accidental or deliberate genetic changes

by radiation or in the test-rube, human beings will remain

pretty much the way they are. Men's attributes will depend increasingly on the kind and quality of their socio-economic en

vironment and their educational experience, education being

interpreted in the broad sense of learning throughout the life

cycle and not limited to formal schooling.

Although world tensions will continue and many crises will

develop as a result of ideological and economic conflicts, the

gravest problems will arise from the increasing disparity be

tween the rich and the poor nations. The gap between them is not

likely to decrease appreciably and may even become wider, since

the poor nations will advance at a slower rate. By the year2000 some of the underdeveloped countries might well become

industrialized, but by that time the rich nations will haveachieved the stage of super-industrialization, thus ironicallyarousing once again among the poor aspirations not immediatelyattainable. Human narure being what it is, this will engender

envy, irrationality and even violence.

Population control notwithstanding, there will ~e an imme~sc.

Iy larger number of people in the world competing for dWln~.ling resources of food, clothing, housing and ene~gy. ~ere Will

be more congested cities and more serious ecological Imbalances.Some major diseases like cancer .will be conquered, t~US con

tributing to a further increase in population, but ~ther Illnes~eswill arise from the excesses of the second industrial revoluu?nwhich bas already begun. 00 the whole the normal span of life

will lengthen.

I f. or knowledge will continue to increase in geo-n ormation· . .

metric progression, and so will the means-to store and retrieve (to

But the accelerated expansion of knowledge will make much of

ir obsolescent even before it has been mastered by the many.

The media of communication will become more sophisticated

and will be tremendously effective in bringing information to

people; in fact, reality for most people will be increasing

ly that which is communicated to them rather than that whichthey observe for themselves. .

Occupations and professions will be increasingly diffef(;~tiatcdand specialized, bur again rapid. changes may make them obsoleteand expendable in a short time.

Political and Social Changes

Political power in rhe sense of controlling the channels of

social action will have to be exercised not by merely communicating desirable programs of action to the people, but through

the intelligent execution of plans in which the good: of the

many will be the overriding consideration. Otherwise the worldwill be in for more trouble. '

Social organization will change; the family will continue tv

become less and less stable; norms of behavior. will b~ further

altered, viz., 'in sexual relations, which are already changi~g;people will have difficulty developing close personal ties in avast and impersonal super-industrial context; they will be more

mobile and unless assisted by educational and other agencies,they will suffer from loss or lack of values. Other values may

supplant old ones, bur those that relate to the most basic needsof the :human being, namely, to survive both physically and

psychically, to love and be loved, to belong, to be needed, toachieve some meaning in life-these will probably remain butwill be increasingly difficult to fulfill. .

The individual will he faced with a plethora of choices. asregards work, interpersonal relationships, life-style and values.

Since a wide range of choice presupposes freedom, he will 'be

confronted with the basic existentialist problem: what to do with

freedom.

Eonsequenccs for Education

What educational developments can be inferred from these

rather unhappy assumptions about the society of the future?However difficult, the educational system must concentrate

its energies on enhancing the.. human qualities of men; i~ mustassist in minimizing the prejudices and hates that breed aggressionand violence. But it cannot do this alone; all the other social

. institucio-ns must collaborate in the effort. -

Planning wili be necessary to anticipate expected events Q'~. to

prepare 'for unexpected contingencies; ....there ·,is: a. difference,however, between a planning and a planned society. Humanbeings can and should plan their life rogether.: bur to' compelthem to live in a planned society is something else "again." .

There must be a' minimum of essential educat!o"n for everychild, ·youth and adult- so that adaprabiliry ·is develpp~d, so that

responses to change will be intelligent an~ ratio~al, an~ so thatthe experience 'of change itself 'will not be tOO traumatic. ._

Curriculum.makers will have to face the hard fact of iherapid obsolescence of knowledge. Content will be selec~ive and

Therefore, continuing education will become a necessity, 00

longer a luxury. It will not be only for idle housewives, retireesor mid-career professionals; it will be for everyone, becausechanging careers twice or thrice in a life-time will become notonly possible hut necessary.

The hierarchical structure of education may have to yield to amore flexible and viable arrangement; the young might becomementor to the old, peers may teach each other; groups with oneteacher, or many teachers with one student, and other innovativearrangements may have to be devised.

One question must be asked and answered: Can the Govern.menr handle higher education? Of course it can. During thefirst decade of this century, the Philippine Government established four institutions of higher learning in Manila: the Philippine Normal School, the Philippine School of Arts and Tcades,the Philippine School of Commerce. and the University of thePhilippines. All four are still around, somewhat weather-worn,dilapidated and neglected, but each one the leader in irs field,the best that can be had for the modest amounts of moneyinvested in them.

These insrirurions were established under American inspirationand guidance. But if our progress in education 'means anythingat all it should mean that we can do this again, on a much largerscale than before, and succeed even better-if for no otherreason than that we would be doing it on our own, under theguidance of our perceptions, in response to our own needs, andin the interest of our own future.

disciplines-the arts, sciences, and the learned profe-stons-c-andcorrespondingly increase the overflow ;nto the training cadres forthe trades and vocations.

Third, this process presupposes a system of effective regulation, perhaps even authoritarian control, from the center. Thiscontrol will include the fixing of enrollment quotas by trade,vocation, or profession based on projections of national manpowerneeds.

Can the State Do It?

Increases in the Public Sector

Fourth, the "brain-drain" problem will have to be met on thebasis of rational and pragmatic principles. We muse allow for acertain overflow of our trained manpower to the outside world.To the extent that we may continue for some time to producedoctors, nurses, teachers, accountants, and clerks in excess ofour needs or in excess of the number that can be gainfully emplayed, we shall be an exporter of skilled or semi-skilled manpower, JUSt as we are now a profitable exporter of copra, sugar,lumber and bananas.

Fifth, bilingualism as the language policy in cur educationalsystem, and in particular in the colleges and universities, will beaccepted and implemented. It responds to our national as wellas international needs by aiming to produce Filipinos who cancommunicate among themselves in Filipino as well as with theoutside world in English.

Sixth, the public sector in our system of higher education willhave to be enlarged. We are the only country in the world thatsends more than 90 per cent of its college and university youthto private institutions. In effect, (he government, after spendingabout 90 per cent of irs educational budget on elementary andhigh school education, has very little lefr for higher education,and therefore leaves the field, by default, to private enterprise.And yet this is of course the critical area for top-level manpower training, the area where the character of the nationalleadership, the quality of life, and the 'shape of our future.are determined.

This is not said eo denigrate the valuable contribution whichprivate colleges and universities have made to our nation. WhatI'm saying is that it is not fair for the state to abdicate andsurrender its responsibility for higher education to the privatesector without at the same time providing the latter with thefinancial help it needs, including subsidies. Almost one is tempted

to believe that the educational goal of the state is to produce anation of sixth graders.

I have discussed the future; it is in some ways more interesting

than the past and certainly safer than the present. Yet, ofcourse, we cannot ignore the present and the immediate future,the time-frame in which we have our being. Nor is it usefulto talk of generalities, since what most concern us are the

The first is that post-secondary education in our country willundergo a clearer differentiation between training for a tradeor vocation lasting two to three' years after high school, anneducation for en academic discipline in the arts or sciences or inthe learned professions lasting four or more years.

THE ROLE OF ENGINEERING EOUCATION IN SOUTHEAST ASIABy DR. SALVADOR P. LOPEZ

President, University 0/ the Philippines

Address at the inaugflratioll of the Association for Engineering Education in

Southeast Asia, IS October 1973

About two years ago, when OUr representatives to the Jakartameeting of the Committee for the Formation of an Association

for Engineering Education for Southeast Asia reported to me on

the recommendations of the Committee, I readily gave my support

to the proposed establishment of such an association. It isgratifying to note that the associa[io~ has now been formallyestablished, and we are deeply honored that the University of

the Philippines has been chosen as the venue for its inauguration.

A cooperative endeavor like this has long been overdue, Thecountries of Southeast Asia have one thing in common: they areall in the process of development, and in everyone of them the

educational system is expected to initiate and promote theprocess of modernization and to assume a central task in national

development.

rapidly towards the second Industrial Revolution of the twenty

first century, many backward societies still have to make thegreat leap to the sixteenth century, while the majority of theso-called developing nations have yet to negotiate the transitionto the first Industrial Revolution.

let us make no mistake about it. Now, as in the beginningof time, the race will go to the fleet of foot. The fleet-footedwill not wait for the slow-footed, but will move yet farther ahead,

As the pace accelerates, the gap between the two will tend towiden, The reason is simple: improvements in science and technology speed up development in geometric progression.

The lesson for us is therefore only. too clear: we've got tf)

modernize or perish.

Let us hope that the establishment of the Association for Engineering Education for Southeast Asia wHI lead to the resolutionof the dilemmas and paradoxes of national development (f)

which I have referred. It should help our peoples to attend tothe specific problems that obtain in Our separate societies anddraw from these shared problems a common viewpoint concerning

their solution,

I do not mean, of course, to suggest the integration of allengineering institutions in the region into a unified system.

While this may seem highly desirable, I know from experiencethat in the academic world it would be extremely difficult if no:impossible. What I would suggest is a free and voluntary association of institutions involved in engineering education for t~e

purpose of attaining common objectives at a much faster pac:and achieving a wider perspective from which to view thecommon concerns of our societies in the region .

Most national development plans in Southeast Asia indicatethat serious attention is being devoted to higher education andthat particular importance is being given to engineering and tech.nology as vital instruments of economic progress, Still, as .1have already pointed out, we have to face the realities of our

situation, and one of these is that the state of engineering andtechnology in the region is far behind rhat of the developedindustrial societies. At the same time, the high level of oursocial development makes it difficult for us to absorb the advanced technology and scientific knowledge of the developedcountries. The challenge, therefore, for engineering within theregion appears co be how ro apply Western technology tolocal resources in an Asian setting. Your association has an excellent opportunity to serve as catalyst in this regard.

I have earlier spoken a bit disparagingly about the resistanceof our culture to innovation and modernization along Westernlines. Recently, however, my attention was called co the muchdebated book, The Limits to Growth, an M,LT. study on theimpact of economic and population growth on the e~rth's reosources. \Y/e may disagree with some of the concluslOns andrecommendations of the study, but it does draw attention. to

one compelling truth concerning the nature of technology. Ac·cording co the study, engineering know-how and technology havelargely been responsible for the phenomenal econ?mic growth ofour time, but it-bas. also 'contributed to the depleuon of res~urce~

and the rapid spread of pollution. Let us hope that our.e~glOeer~will be able to achieve a technology that is not only effiCient anc

century.moving

the last quarter of the twentiethindustrial countries are already

Here, however, we encounter a paradox. Most of the. instirurions of higher learning in Southeast Asia operate on the Westernmodel. Whether wittingly or unwittingly, therefore, they act asconduits for the assimiiation of the cultural values of the model.At the same time, these institutions are under strong pressure to become more relevant to the native culture and environment. Certain questions arise from this situation: for instance,

whether the aspiration of universities in Sourheast Asia to appro.ximate the academic and technological orientation of Westerninstitutions would bring them closer to the needs of the Filipinopeasant in Central Luzon or the farmer in Indonesia.

The paradox arises from the facr that our societies in SoutheastAsia are organized on the pattern of ancient cultural traditionswhich have largely remained intact, making our peoples moreresistant to \V'estern influence than is usually supposed. Thus,while the germ theory of disease is commonly accepted, it docs

not prevent people in our rural areas from turning to folk

practices to cure maladies ranging from malaria to cancer. Or,they would rather die of hunger than eat pork or beef on

account of religious inhibitions. Again, while we accept theprinciple of efficiency and the virtue of hard work and produc

tive labor, our people still prefer to have more holidays, morefiestas, mote community or clan celebrations, which are not

only unproductive but wasteful.

While. therefore, "relevance to native needs, culture, andenvironment" would imply readiness to accommodate to a certaintraditional pattern of behavior or value system, it also raisesthe question of whether we can ever achieve national developmenr without shattering these ancient patterns or systems, Thehard fact we have to face is that in Southeast Asia, as in anyof the developing areas of the world. national development inevitably means modernization along Western lines.

There would be no way to facilitate, for instance, the movement of people and goods except to bulldoze roadways across outmountains and valleys. There would be no way to develop thevast resources of the region except through the application oftechnology that has been developed in the..West. And therewould be no way to improve the living condwons of our peopleexcept by enabling them to participate in the benefits of the

Industrial Revolution.We are approaching

productive but also less wasteful of non-renewable resources andable to diminish pollution. For unless such a technology is evclved, we shall perhaps be able to accelerate the development ofour societies but we shall also. in the process, be diminishingthe prospect of the good life for our people as well as theirchance of survival. I cannot agree with the African delegate whosaid at the international conference on the environment heldlast year in Stockholm: "If pollution," he said, "is the price ourpoor countries have to pay for economic development, then, byall means. let's pollute."

I have followed with keen interest the development of engineering and technology in our time, and as a non-engineer and if,

humanist. I have noted with satisfaction the move to include aspart of the engineer's outlook, a serious concern for the humanbeing, for the true nature of man, and for the welfare of society.The work of engineers touches virtually all aspects of everydayexistence, and an insensitive engineer can become a menaceto human society. Now, more than ever before, we must remind ourselves that the machine was made for man, not manfor the machine.

NEW DIMENSIONS IN lIBERAL EDUCATIONBy DR. SALVADOR P. LOPEZ

President, University 0/ the PhilippinM

Addre-ss at the Faculty Seminar, College 0/ Arts and Sciences,Univenit), 0/ the East, 22 October 1973

About two decades ago when Robert Maynard Hutchins inveighed against the excessive specialism and vocationalism ofAmerican schools, he emphasized that the aim of liberal education

is to help the student to learn to think for himself, to becomea whole man, and to take his place in society as a responsiblecitizen. Today, the liberal arts are fighting a defensive battle on

two fronts and on rwo levels: in the long range vis-a-vis scienceand technology, and over the short run vis-a-vis the regime ofmartial law. ~

While the hegemon)' of science and technology is unquestioned,

it is no longer regarded as an undiluted blessing. Never beforehas the purpose of liberal education been as valid, as necessary.

and as urgent as at the present time. Yet irs exponents, thedevout teachers of the liberal arts, feel beleaguered, uncertain aNIsomewhat unimportant in a world of rapid change and expanding knowledge. They are being edged out by the natural

and social scientists whose research has led to discoveries thatpromote not only the physical and material well-being of peo

ple, bur also the fabrication of yet more lethal weapons ofannihilation and destruction. In addition to the emphasis on

quantified knowledge, there is increasing dependence on the massmedia as the major resource for the mindless utilization ofleisure time.

Modernize or Pea-ish

The staple items of the liberal arts are rhe humanities, which

are still conventionally subdivided into literature, philosophy,history, the arts and mathematics. It would be futile for lovers

of the humanities to envy or resent the disciplines and professions that are geared to development and modernization throughscience and technology. For developing countries like the Philip-plnes, there is really no choice: we either modernize or perish.Yet, when we consider the price we may have to pay formodernization, the choice however unavoidable is not an easyone to make. We realize that our people must first acquire alevel of living above mere subsistence before they can even beginto question the quality of their life and the meaning of existence.

Does this imply that, as in the medieval university, liberaleducation should be confined to the elite? By no means. Liberaleducation is necessary for members of any society intent Oil

striking a balance between specialization as an instrument far. development and the intelligent participation of its citizens

in the life of society. It is the only kind of education suitedto free men so that they can understand the forces that movethe contemporary world, the ideas underlying such forces, andthe ideological differences and economic confficrs that precipitate

war and make peace so difficult to attain. For such understandingit is necessary to have a sense of the past, which requires aknowledge of history; an ability to conceptualize, criticize andjudge, which calls for philosophy, logic and mathematics; andcomprehension of human relationships, values and problems,which presupposes acquaintance with economics, political science,sociology, psychology, anthropology, linguistics, literature andthe arts.

Ir is nonsense, of course, to justify the humanities on purelyutilitarian grounds. The purpose of liberal education is to freethe mind from narrow and conventional preconceptions sothat an issue or idea can be examined from every conceivableperspective before judgment is rendered or a decision made.

Practical, but not utilitarian

In this sense the liberal arts are eminently practical. While

philosophy, for example, may not help a man to land a lucrativejob, achieve promotion at the office, overcome an inferioritycomplex, or acquire wealth and status, ir can give him something far more important. In the words of Bertrand Russell: "Tolive without certainty, yet without being paralyzed by hesitationis perhaps the chief thing that philosophy can still do for thosewho study it:'

The academic humanities are the organizers of man's vast

inheritance of civilization. They are nor, according to Barzun, "a

substitute for medicine or psychiatry; they will not heal diseasedminds or broken hearts, any more than they will foster politicaldemocracy or settle international disputes. All the evidence got'sthe other way. The so-called humanities have meaning chieflybecause of the inhumanity of life; what they depict and discussis strife and disaster. The Iliad is not about world peace; KingLear is nor a well-rounded man; Madame Booary is not aboutthe judicious employment of leisure time."

In national terms, Rizal's Noli Me Tangere is not about equality; the heroine of The Woman With Two Nfwels by Nick Joaquin is not a well-adjusted person; and the poetry of Amado V.Hernandez does not celebrate a just and contented society.

A lifetime pursuit

It is obvious that a complete liberal education cannot be givenby any college or university no matter how ample and rich itsresources. To accomplish its broad aim would take all of a lifetime,and more. It is, in fact, a process that should continue as anindividual pursuit long after formal studies are over. The ideasand principles derived from liberal education must be confirmedby maturity, re-analyzed by experience, rejected or reinforcedby the wisdom that only life, which sobers us by its fru~ttations

and contradictions, can give. To quote Arnold Toynbee: "Thefirst step towards self-education should be to make the child

aware of the unpalatable truth chat we do not know, and theunlikely to know, the answers to the questions that are of the

greatest concern to us - e.g., Why arc we here? How hashuman nature come to be the incongruous combination that itis, of something animal-like with something god-like? Is a humanpersonality ephemeral or is it permanent? What is man's des

tiny, individually and collectively? The child will have to he

made aware that even those questions that can be answeredcan seldom be answered satisfactorily. Honest answers to themwill be frankly incomplete, dubious, tentative, and provisional.A child must learn these awkward truths and must summon up

the moral courage ro live with them before it can begin to

become independent intellectually - and intellectual independence at the earliest possible age should be the objective of educa

tion. The pupil should transform himself into a self-reacher, andthe teacher should transform himself first into a stimulator and

then into a consultant. This will be better not only for the sru

dents but for the faculty. It will relieve the .presscre under

which members of university faculties are now laboring, whileat the same time establishing a more satisfactory relationship

between the two parties."

It is in this context that the role of liberal education in theuniversity must be re-examined and recast. This we must do

without in any way denying its fundamental role as the unify

ing factor in what would otherwise be a fragmented, nat row and

disastrously parochial education.

Thinking and learning:

The first item on our agenda is to reinterpret the aim of

liberal education in contemporary terms: to teach students how rc

think and learn so that they can educate themselves continuously

as adults in a rapidly changing world. Knowledge accumulates at

a geometric rate, but it is quickly replaced by new facts and in

formation, and often it becomes obsolete even before it can be

absorbed. Even the specialists acknowledge that the most important purpose of education is learning how to learn. Liberal

education must therefore rely on its comparatively stable com

ponents to develop the critical and sensitive mind.Within the framework of the university, liberal education can

only stimulate interests and cultivate tastes which must be further refined as a lifelong endeavor. Since liberal education can

not be given fully in any institution of learning, we must beselective in our choice of subjects, giving priority to those areas

in which universal ideas and values compete for the intellectual

and moral commitment of men. Lack of time and paucity of

resources will not allow us to dissipate our energies in unnecessary

proliferation.A distinction must be drawn between the tools of learning

and the content subjects that comprise the essentials of a liberaleducation. Certainly reading and basic communication skills, thelogic of mathematics and the spirit of scientific inquiry must betaught and inculcated at the earliest possible time. Strictly speaking, they are nor the essentials of liberal education, but they are

instrumental in acquiring it.Moreover, educators tend to be trapped in conventional cur

ricular assumptions. For instance, what is the rationale behinda four-year program of liberal education, which we have today,or a compressed two-year program, which we had before? Thefour-year program is premised on the doubtful assumption thatthe more time and the more subjects taken, the greater the chancesof validating a liberal education. But there should be no needto justify such education when its objective is so cleat and obvious. On the other hand, the compressed two-year program

was a concession to the inroads of professional subjects, and the

concession was given grudgingly under pressure of utilitarian demands.

Content and quality

It is neither the time spent nor the number of subjects taken

but their content and quality that are important in liberal educe

tion. We should also reconsider the distribution of liberal arts

subjects in the curriculum in the light of the relative youth- of

our students. Perhaps it would be wiser and more effective to

teach them liberal arts subjects side by side with the professional

courses, from the first to the last year of college. As the student

matures he would better understand and appreciate the value andimportance of the liberal arts which not only enrich each ether

but also illuminate the professional disciplines.

Faith in the humanities and other liberal arts can be restored,

not by making grandiose claims about their utility, but by a stead.

fast adherence to their essential purpose, and by a kind of teaching that is stimulating, instructive, dialectic and imaginative. Such

teaching is rare nowadays because it requires hard work and in.

tense commitment. Let the faculties of liberal education restorethe primary of teaching and leave statistical research and exper

imenration to the social and natural scientists. Humanists andliberal arts scholars are merely pathetic when they try to emulate

the methods of these disciplines. The historian has his own

scholarly techniques of interpreting significant events, the philo.

sopher his incisive logic, the man of letters his literary insights,

and the artist his intuitive genius. In a world of technologists,

businessmen, politicians and foundation officials, the humanist

will fed secure in the significance and practicality of his task,

namely, educating the youth to cope with an uncertain present

and an unpredictable future. Long after the knowledge and skille

in other disciplines have become obsolescent, the liberal arts

will continue to flourish in virtue of their intrinsic worth andthe continuing relevance of their purposes.

Is there anything different but of predictably lasting value

that we should add to the traditional subjects in the liberalarts?

At the University of the Philippines we have added Asian

civilizations to the program of general education in response to

geographical, political and cultural realities, but we have not

discarded the history of Western thought. We are nationalistic,even regionalistic, but not parochial.

Universities in the United States suggest that other cultures,perhaps one or rwo, should be studied because such subjects

broaden the student's intellectual horizons and deepen his understanding of his own culture. A comparative approach engen

ders awareness of the continuous interaction among peoples, cut.cures and states, and makes history more meaningful.

These are suggestions, not prescriptions, because there areconstraints which limit our curricular offerings. In any case theimportant point is that the liberal arts focus on everything thatis significantly human. Therefore they are always cross-culturaleven when no new subjects are added.

Not by bread alone

I said in the beginning that liberal education is fighting a defensi ...-e battle on tWO fronts. Yet there is reason for hope thatthe liberal arts disciplines may be ready to mount a "counter

offensive" and stage a "comeback", as it were. The liberal artsare benefitting, first of all, from the rediscovery of the ancienttruth that man does not Iive by bread alone but also by thethings that nourish the human spirit. They are receiving newimportance from the realization that science and rechnologv do

120 U.P. GAZETTE VOL. IV, No. 10

not provide all the answers to the mystery of human existence,

let alone the problem of human survival. To do this, the (0

operation of the behavioral sciences, philosophy, history, art andliterature is indispensable.

Let me give two examples from my own recent experience.

In a talk with a third-year medical student who intends I~)

specialize in psychiatry, I was muck by his statement that he

wished he were studying Shakespeare now instead of during his

freshman or sophomore year in the pre-medical course. Shakes

peare has in his plays a complete gallery of disturbed and .flawed

human beings - Othello, Macbeth, Lear, Hamler, Brutus - and

how much better indeed does Shakespeare illuminate the basic

problems of psychotic or neurotic behavior than the case studies

of the psychiatrists!

In planning the construction of tWO high-rise apartment build

ings on the V.P. campus at Diliman, it suddenly occurred to me

that, in addition co considering the technical problems with the

architects and engineers and the funding problems with the fi

nancial and real estate experts, we needed to take prevailing

social customs and values into account. And so, we brought in

the psychologists, sociologists and anthropologists into the pic

ture. We hope that by employing the inter-disciplinary approach,

we have made the correct decision to build these high-rise apart

ment buildings because, according to our behavioral scientists,

our professors and employees can be persuaded to live in them.

A.cademic freedom abridged

It is clear that any discussion of liberal education at this rime

would remain purely theoretical, perhaps even hypothetical, un

less . it is considered in the context of martial law. Indeed, we

have to face the grim truth that since liberal education is best

defined as the education of free men in a free society, it is

inherently incompatible with martial law.

The basic civil and political rights guaranteed by the Consti

tution have been suspended or abridged, to quote the words of

President Marcos himself, as "a temporary constitutional expe

dient" to safeguard the republic, and as "a necessary transition"

between the old and the new society. Among the freedoms that

have been temporarily abridged under martial law is academic

freedom. Accordingly, the exercise of academic freedom in the

classical sense as consisting of the right of the teacher co teach,

or of the scholar to do research, in the field of his competence,as well as the right of the student to [earn according to his

lights and inclinations, without outside interference, has been

modified in the universities. However, no specific rules or guide

lines as to what can or cannot be taught have so far been is

sued, and it -is-perhaps just as well that this is so. Teachers have

to play it by ear, so to speak. with all the attendant risks in.

valved, including an invitation to Camp Creme to explain a

witting or unwitting error. Yet these risks are to be preferred

to those that would attend a total system of thought control,

including the ruthless purge of intellectuals, book-burning, and

worse.

Some professors have come to me for suggestions on how

certain subjects in political science, history, and constitutional

law should be taught, or whether they can teach the Bill of

Rights, the history of the American, the French, the Russian,

not to speak of the Philippine revolution, or use as read

ings in their courses the works of Thomas Paine and Rousseau,

Thomas Jefferson and Abraham lincoln, Karl Marx and Lenin,

or for that matter, Rizal, Mabini, M.H. del Pilar, Claro M.

Recto or Amado V. Hernandez.

TIle ecstasy of thinking and learning

I have a short answer to all these questions. According tc

President Marcos, I tell them, you can teach anything, any

philosophy or "ism", but without championing or advocating

any of them, Not all of them are satisfied with this answer: one

of them indeed reminded me that the act of teaching is in itself

an act of advocacy - an act that implies belief in certain

values or a system of values, and if teaching is OOt like this,

then it is not teaching at all.

Liberal education is, of course, impossible without academic

freedom. The natural sciences and mathematics can be taught

without fear or misgiving under martial law, bur the social

sciences and humanities, especially history, political science, eco

nomics and literature, are vulnerable. The reason, to quote

President Marcos again, is that "there seems to be a' trend

of freedom in all of human history; at least one historian, Croce,

considers history as 'the story of liberty.'''

To one who is keen and avid of mind, nothing can equal

the joy, the excitement, the ecstasy of learning and thinking

which can be enjoyed independently of material condi

tion or temporal circumstance - ecstasy which is the unique

privilege of those who, having been nourished in the liberal

arts, can find renewed strength and confidence in the deepest

recesses of the mind and heart where nothing and nobody, not

even martial law, can intrude.

inz the system of sharing of professional fees paid government

physicians in the University Health Service, adopted at irs 837tl1

meeting on 27 September 1973. such that instead of ()O% of

The Board noted that the Health Service staff phvsicians and

places is unkind and detrimental to health considering that

the faculty or personnel spend four hours on a moving vehicle

to and from their destination.

b. Class schedules and student consultation time make it phvsically impossible for the faculty to have their meals at places be

fitting their position and rank.

c. Officers' Club membership fee is $5.00 monthly regard.

mend the designation of necessary personnel and the payment of

corresponding honoraria or salaries to such personnel as is ne

cessary.

AUTHORITY TO USE UNIVERSITY VEHiCLES FOR VOLUNTEER SERVICES

The Board authorized persons who volunteer their services infund-raising campaigns for the University, to use University ve

hides.The Board noted that such persons receive no compensation

while rendering voluntary services to raise funds for importantprojects like the V.P. Children's Playground, the Virginia Llamas

Romulo Pavilion and the U.P. Alumni Fund.

STANDARDIZATION OF PRACTICE ON USE OF fACULTYTInES

The Board approved the standardization of the practice on the

use of faculty titles such that any faculty member, upon his ap

pointment, whether part-time or full-time, permanent or tem

porary, shall carry only the title of his primary discipline and not

necessarily of his department. This, however, shall not apply to

faculty tides of emeritus professors and holders of professorial

chairs.

In this connection, "primary discipline" shall be taken to mea 1

that discipline to which a faculty member devotes more than fifty

per cent of his academic work. \'Vhere a faculty member has com-

pctence in more than one discipline, his appointment shall carry

only the tide of his primary discipline, and an authority to teach

his secondary discipline shall be issued if necessary.Present faculty tides which do not conform herewith shall be

changed accordingly.

ESTABLISHMENT OF REVOLVING FUND IN UNIVERSITYHEALTH SERVICE

In connection with the implementation of the annual physical

and medical examination of faculty members, officers and ern

ployees of rbc University as provided under Article 214 of theRevised University Code, the Board approved the collection

through payroll deduction of an annual fee of P30.00 from Uni

versi ty personnel.For this purpose, the Board approved the establishment of a

revolving fund under the administration of the University HealthService, to 'which all fees paid by personnel availing of rhe facil

ities and services of the Health Service shall accrue and againstwhich all expenses for x-ray films, chemicals and other supplies

and salaries and wages of additional personnel will be charged.

In the case of outlying units operating clinics of their own, the

revolving fund shall be under the administration of the unit con

cerned to be used also for the same purpose. However, for units

being serviced by government hospitals or private clinics as approved by University authorities, personnel of the unit concerne-I

will pay direct to the servicing hospital or clinic under the pre

sent arrangement.

The Board noted that the annual payment of r30.00 by eachemployee is believed reasonable, since a U.P. students pays the

same amount. Moreover, since the annual physical and medicalexamination is a University policy for the benefit of the employees,

its COSts should be borne by the individual employee JUSt like the

expenses for I.D.

CONFERMENT OF HONORARY DEGREE

The Board approved the conferment of the honorary degree

of Doctor of Humanities (L.H.D.) upon the First Lady, Mrs.Imelda Romualdez Marcos. in recognition of Her distinguished

contributions to the encouragement and development of the artsand the humanities as well as of her outstanding leadership inthe planning and execution of projects to improve rhc well-being

of the people i n the spirit of the Compassionate Society.

THE ARTIST AS TEACHER


President of tbe Unn.ersitv of the Pbilippilles

(Keynote address at the Unesco FOrJ/lIl on 'The Nell' Education 0.' she Artist" at the Manila Hilton, November 2, 1973)

In responding to the invitation [Q give the keynote address

before this Unesco Forum on "The New Education of the Artist,"

I have wondered whether there is really anything new in the

education of rhe anise, new in the sense rhat -Ir is a method

or element not known or tried before, either by itself alone or

in combination with others. In contrast, for example, to the

training of the physician, the lawyer or the engineer, which

has long included an extended period of formal schooling, the

training of the artist has unril fairly recenr times been tradition.

ally limited to the atelier system or its equivalent, with its em

phasis on the workshop approach that is an obvious throwback

to the medieval craft guilds. The idea that an artist should un·

dergc formal training and education in a school or university,

where he is expected co acquire a broad education in the liberal

arts, is a modern American innovation. For more chan the

learned professions, art calls for an inborn gift-genius, if you

will-plus technical competence. and an inexhaustible capacity

for self-education or self-development that never ends.

Today, as in the past, the training of the artist essentially

consists in sharpening rhe skill of the hand. the eye and tho:

imagination in order to achieve technical virtuosity. \What, then,

is new? Ir cannot be the electronic audio-visual gadgetry which

merely increases the reach and scope of instruction without ne

cessarily improving its quality. What is new, I believe, is the

recognized need ro educate the mind and the heart of the artistSf) that, beyond merely creating things of beauty that are a joy

forever, he may play a vital role in enhancing the quality of

life, participate in the shaping and enrichment of culture. and

contribute to the progress and development of the society to

which he belongs.

In considering. therefore, what type of education is best forthe artist. we cannot evade the prior question: \'Vhat is the res

ponsibility of the artist? My own answer is that whatever elsehe may be, the artist is. first of all. a teacher.

Beyond MtrS'flry of Teclw;qlle

Here, it seems to me. is the nux of the problem regardinn

the education of the artist. particularly in the developing countries. Should rhe education of the arrisr remain rrudirional. dedi.cared primarily to the mastery of technique. or should it strive.

in addition, to make the artist more keenly aware of his role in

society, and of his responsibility to make a contribution to the

enhancement of that society?

It may seem unfair ro demand all these things of the artist.

Is the artist, firsr of all, capable of making such a contribution?

Is it possible that he who has traditionally been regarded as a

mere weaver of words. or as a technician of sound, line, color,

or texture. has also the capacity to help his fellowmen achieve

viable societies of peace, justice and prosperity?

The doubt implicit in these questions suggests an image of

the artist for which he is himself partly responsible and which

is often well-deserved. The artist has become, in the eyes of

many, an objecr of indifference or pity, suspicion Or derision, a

dropout of society, hence useless and perhaps even a menace

to it. full of bizarre ideas and driven by a wild imagination.

Unhappily, this attitude towards rhe artist is prevalenr in

both the developing and developed countries of the world.

Though the alienation of the artist from his fellowmen is usual

ly regarded as the product of a machine civilization and the

consequent de-personalization of social relations, most develop

ing countries have also been touched by it as a result of the

inevitable cultural dependence that follows political and econo

mic colonization.

The Philippine experience bears out the view that rhc artisteven in a developing country could be alienated from his society. Thus, at the starr of this century, tcgerher with the un

doubted blessing of a democratic system of public education, we

developed a culture that was in many respects remote from the:

masses of the people. The artist, writer Or intellectual neve: developcd the ties that should have bound him CO his people-c-or,if he did, promptly lost them after achie-ving stature as an artist.

The accepted "artistic" attitude was that of indifference to the

problems rhar faced the nation. In many cases, the artist simply

rook this course because it demanded the least effort and theleast pain. In others, however, it was because the artist belie.....cd

himself to be responsible only to his art. The physical exileof a fr:w Filipino arrisrs concealed the spiritual exile of the manythose who. though remaining in the country of their birth, were

nevertheless never truly of it, constituting, as it were, a colonyof exiles in their own land.

BetrayaJ oi Ar.

To the social ferment that engulfed his country and peoplethe anise responded by further isolating himself, creating workas remote from the experience of his fellowmen as possible,

works that celebrated the first kiss of young love, the allegedlyidyllic character of life in the countryside, the first rays of dawn

breaking in the east, or the fabled sunset on Manila Bay, thus

revealing co his audience a vision that was essentially false Ormisleading. The artist thus denied his responsibility, rejected hi:;

citizenship, and, in the final analysis, betrayed his art.For this is the paradox: to affirm "art" in terms of the pur

suit of beauty and the creation of form simply is to betray I:.The prerry pictures of a countryside that in reality seethed with

poverty, disease and violence, the sentimental verses of ycun-;love that denied the slaughter of love in the squalor of the cities-cdoes not the falsity of these make a mockery of art, to whichmen have always looked, as they do to religion and science, in

their effort co understand their condition?Yet the artist held that an had no country and that the

pursuit and creation of beauty was an end in itself, remote from

the mundane concerns that plagued lesser men. The artist wasan aristocrat dwelling among, bur apart from ordinary mortals.

What did it matter if the lot of those mortals be misery, in

justice and poverty? These were passing things; beauty would

survive them. The appropriate phrase, the well-wrought verse,

the color appropriate to the lines, and masses balanced on can

vas-these were held ro be the things that mattered most, OD:

the agony of man in an unjust society, nor the necessity a:bringing about fundamental social change so that human life

may achieve some meaning and man may realize himself.

Dead-enulg Tech,llicism

It was inevitable, in these circumstances, thar the maste,yof form and the honing of technique would always be dominaur

in the education of the artist. This dominance has led to e

deadening technicism that has become endemic in nearly all the

arts. If I seem to be suggesting, as I did more than thirty year,ago in a book entitled "literature and Society," that the do

minanr school of Philippine art is still that of art-Ior-arts-sake

and its variations, it is because I feel that there is need to re

emphasize this judgment.I do nor deny thar the Filipino artist has achieved great pro

gress during the last thirty years in terms of increased technical verve and assurance as well as in heightened significanceand vitality of substance, lind I would repeat an assessment I

have made more than once before, namely, that Philippine art

will first achieve international recognition in the realm ofpainting rather than in any other form.

Yet. it is precise I:' because we must conserve these gains thatwe must continue co challenge the art-for-art's-sake school inwhatever guise or disguise it might rear its head. Despite theefforts to re-direct Philippine art in order co make it relevantto the hopes and aspirations of the people, the dominance orthis school cannot be denied. Its assumptions, though unstated,are there in the work of every artist who chooses co ignore thecry for change from the people, who denies his responsi.blity

to the society, who affirms instead that his sale concern IS toCreate beauty and [Q achieve perfection of form.

It is true that the art-for-arr's-sake viewpoint pe:-sists ombecause it is more tenable or valid bur because it is itself ;1.

reaction to society, a groping for order out of the chaos orsocial relations in struggling soderies. But it persists also be-

cause of the failure of the educative forces to inculcate among

the people the meaning of art and its function in society.

Changing the Human COJldition

1 would like to suggest that art is neither so remore nor 5.1

valueless (0 the mundane affairs of men as it has often beenclaimed. I would like to suggest further that irs value proceeds

precisely from its nature as a human undertaking - we are nortrying to attach to it a quality alien to itself - and from therole it has played in the past and is playing at present in theunderstanding and willful transformation of the human condi

ticn.The human condition: This is a phrase most often associated

with art and it is often taken to mean those aspects of human

life char seem to be "immutable" and "eternal" the facts of death,of love, of suffering, of courage, of conflict, of snuggle. It may

be thar these aspects of living are as yet unalterable: all menmust die, most fall in love, many suffer, some possess courage,conflict is often inevitable, struggle is a fan of existence. Jsubmit, however, that the terms that define these do change and

that they change with time and place. The human condition in

19th century Philippines was certainly of a different order from

the human condition in the 20th. The love of Crisostomo Ibarra for Maria Clara in the Noli Me Tangere of Jose Rizal, the

Philippine national hero, is defined certainly by terms different

from those that define the love of Connie Escobar for Pace

Texeira in The Woman Who Had Two Nauels of Nick Joaquin,

perhaps our greatest novelisr in English.

Art is one of the oldest forms of communication and expres

sion known to man, and what all arc is essentially concernedwith is to make comprehensive that which we value most and

that which we would, therefore, want to understand most: life.

Human life is, first and foremost, defined by the circumstances

in which ir is lived, and those circumstances are certainly al

......ays social, for all men must live in society, must interact with

other men in order to understand, and to survive in a world

essentially hostile. It is, perhaps, already a truism to state thai:

to understand man - and man not as an abstraction bur man

existing at a particular period in history and in a particular place

on this planer - one must understand that which determineswhat he is and which is constantly changing him, and that IS

society. We do not, like Minerva, spring from the head of Zeus

full-grown and without antecedents: what we are society makesus and what we will be society determines.

Art as Molder 0/ Consciousness

The artist therefore who claims thar he is untouched by thesocial and political facts of his time is in effect denying the

very forces that helped determine his character and his attitudesas well as those of his fellowmen, whose life he would interpretand make comprehensible - or, rather, which he would thereby be unable to interpret and make comprehensible. It is rhusinevitable that the artist who takes such a position soon exhaustshimself, his art becoming so rigid, so stylized and so effete thatit becomes nothing more than a curiosity, a subject for study byacademicians, but soon fading from the memory of man. Forone cannot create form without the material with which to createit, and rhat material is rhc vast store-house of life, its inex

haustible complexity.The artist. therefore, who would be true to his an must re

cognize the necessity of understanding the society that determines his being as well as that of his fellowmen. The materialout of which he can create works of enduring value is there inthe struggle of his fellowmen and perhaps of himself to makethis world more habitable and life more meaningful. He can

record this as well as aid its achievement, for art is a molder

of consciousness, a power capable of bringing about material

change as ir acts upon the minds of men, helping them achieveunderstanding of the mechanism of social change, infusing them

wirh the determination to change the world.

The traditional view that aft merely changes alr og with the

times and that it moves only in the shadow of social change can

no longer be maintained without reservation. Today. more thanat any other time in the history of man, we know for a fact th..c

an can help bring about progress and development. Ir is nowuniversally accepted that change is possible only if the objective

conditions demand it, and if the subjective readiness and deter

mination of men to bring it about exists. The subjectiveprecondition for social change is the realm within which art has

always functioned and which makes it of value to man. An ca-t

prepare men for change, can bring about an understanding of

why it is necessary, and how it can be achieved. It can do these

things in a manner certainly more effective than a learned

treatise or a dissertation can, for art is a more concentrated and

more powerful means of communication than any other. The

artist is, therefore, one of the most powerful allies that a society

can have in its efforts to transform itself.

Educating the Artis'. as Teocher

But it seems that neither the artist nor the rest of society

arc prepared to recognize this. It is therefore necessary that the

rest of society as well as the artist himself be educated. The edu

cation of the artist must be directed towards making him a teach

cr, and a teacher in the most profound sense. The fruitless and

culturally debilitating emphasis on technique is a disservice (0

art and to the society that nurtures it. Instead of this emphasis,

we must develop new methods and new content in the artist's

education which would look at him as a citizen who possessescertain skills that must be developed. yes; but one who must,

most importantly, recognize in the struggle of his fellowmen

to achieve progress his own struggle. The bonds between him

and his people that too often have not existed he must grow.

so that he may thereby be capable of appreciating their hopesand fears and aspirations, and so that he may learn to use his

skills, his artistry and his technique in order to articulate th<"sf:

and to make the people aware of their power and of the direc

tion they must take in order to remake society.

Like all of us. the artist is inevitably a partisan in the

epic journey of mankind rewards freedom and justice. He can

be either one of tWO things in relation (0 it: consciously or

otherwise, by cynicism or by default, he can be an obstacle,

an obfuscating hindrance; or he can smooth the road ahead bycreating works that are deeply committed to the liberation of

man. This is simply to say that we must teach the artist no

other commitment except to truth. We know this to be a tall

order. \Xre can, like Pilate, ask cynically, W'hat is truth? False

hood has many guises; it lurks beneath the half-truths and theglittering lies th~t assault men everywhere and which '''';,'ould

keep them enslaved. Truth is indeed difficult to find, bur itcan be found, and we must hope that the artist will be capable

of discovering it and of imparting it. At the very least he must

be aided in developing the capacity, the sensitivity and the grace

to seek it out.It may seem ironic or inappropriate to speak co or about

Filipino artists in this hectoring rene at a time when they

never had it so good. For, today, they have become the objects

of adulation, honors, and rewards beyond the wildest dreams

of us who, thirty years ago, bewailed the indifference of gov

ernment co the development of art and to the unhappy' lot of

the artists. Thanks to the sensitive and dynamic leadership of our

First Lady, Mrs. Imelda Romualdez Marcos, our artists have nowbeen enthroned, if alive, or enshrined, if dead, at the very top

and center of the national life. Amid the glory and munificence

of this sudden Renaissance, we no longer have to worry aboutthe recognition and reward, the care and feeding. of the Filipino artist.

And yet, it is perhaps precisely at this time when the artists

have become the somewhat spoiled darlings of the state thatthey need co be reminded of a document that was approved twen

ty-three years ago by the First Filipino Writers Conference heldon February 25, 1940. \v'hat that document said about vvrirersis still valid today for all artists in general, and I quote:

"Artists are, by the nature of their chosen task, the spear

head of progress.

"They voice the grievances as well as the aspirations of a

nation; they document its achievements; the}' treasure for p.isteriry the worthwhile efforts of man.

'They are the critics of things as they are; they ale rlndreamers of things as they should be; they cannot escape alarge part of the responsibility for the shape of things l

come." •CHALLENGE AND RESPONSE IN PHILIPPINE HISTORY:

A CENTENNIAL ESTIMATE


President of the UIl1t.'ersity of the P!;i}j/JPhws

(Keynote address before the Philippine Hinorical Association Amwal Seminar, November 30, 1973)

It is indeed fitting thar at this momentous period in Ourhisrory, the Philippine Historical Association should choose "ACentury of Struggle for National Survival" as the theme of its

annual national seminar. It is equally fitting that this seminarshould begin today - Bonifacio Day - since OUr strugglesfor national sur-viva] are inextricably linked with the livE'Sand deeds of our heroes.

The period from 1872 to 1972 is probably the most fascinating. and exciting, the most romantic and tumultuous century in Ournation's checkered history. Inevitably, therefore, the events, the

men and the ideas of the century have been the object of mosr

historical, biographical and institutional studies, to say norhing

of literary works, by Filipino and foreign scholars interested inPhilippine history and culture.

Indeed. most of the speakers in this seminar have wrirren

about one or more aspects or facets of Our history during thepast one hundred years, and by the end of this seminar. all cfrhem will certainly have done so.

The following is a random listing of recenr works dealingwith the period: Prof. Teodoro A.

Since the significance of specific eras during this century (If

-truggle will be treated ,H length by your guest speakers durio o

[he next three days, I shall limit myself to certain generalizations

regarding the century as a whole, using for this purpose Professor

Arnold Tovnbee's familiar analytical device: the concept of

challenge and response.

During the century under review, we as a people were con

fronted with three major challenges of varying degrees of inten

sity, e.g., the continuing Spanish domination. culminating in

the Philippine Revolution of 1896-1898; the American colonial

rule, ushered in by the Philippine-American \'Var of 1899-190i;

and the Japanese occupation. brought about by the \\'7ar in thePacific, 1941,1945.

Spanish DomiJlltlioll

It is indicative of the decadence of the once mighty Spanish

Empire that when our nineteenth-century forebears, after three

centuries of Hispanization, wanted to be treated as Spanish

citizens, Spain failed to mobilize the adaptive capacities which

had charaeterizedits initial encounter with the Filipinos in the

16th century. Instead of accommodating the emerging demands

and expectations of the Filipino leadership, Spain chose to em

ploy repressive measures 'in order to perpetuate its colonial rule.

The campaign for reforms was eventually escalated to include a

demand for separation. 2.::~l when Spain remained obstinate. the

Filipinos under Bonifacio's leadership resorted to the force of

arms. During the Philippine Revolution of 1896-18~8, the feel

ing of nationalism and the desire for independence, at fin

confined to a relatively small number of people in the Tagalog

provinces, became a widespread and broadly-based movement.

As James A. LeRoy, a perceptive American observer, wrote in the

early 1900's.

\X!e should be far from the truth if we should say

that this Tagalog rebellion and the demonstrations ofsympathy with it in other provinces, brought the

Filipino people together in a unanimous sentiment for

independence. That it did greatly stimulate this feeling

is certain. He would be a bold man who would nowassert that independence was not the common aspira

tion, when outside pressure suddenly pricked the

bubble of Spanish sovereignty in 1898 and released

the people for the free expression of their sentiments.

The proclamation of Philippine independence on June 1"2,1898 formalized our aspiration to freedom and symbolized Ourattainment of nationhood.

T'he American Challenge

The new nation was soon to be confronted, however, by

a more formidable challenge, this time by the United States

a rising world power deeply conscious of its "Manifest Destiny"to impose its "benevolent" rule upon the Filipinos. In the end,

General Aguinaldo and his followers had no alternative but costri ve to preserve the gains of the Revolution and ensure the

survival of the nation. The Philippine-American was a \'Xlar

which we could not have won.

The years following the end of this war constitute a water

shed in om evolution as a nation. \V'hile the demand for inde

pendence was moderated for a while. owing mainly to the cooptation of the Filipino elite into the American administration.

ir is nevertheless true that Filipino nationalism became stronger

as the nineteen rwenties wore on. It was an essential factor be

hind the passage of the Tydings-Mcfruffie Act which Set LIS

on the road to independence in 1946.

The [opnnese OcCUP.nt;OIl

The Japanese occupation, however. rudely interrupted our

scheduled peaceful march towards independence. Again our

people had to take up arms to resist the invader, and we continued

the struggle even after the guns on Bataan and Corregidor had

been silenced. To borrow Churchill's famous phrase. this was our

nation's finest hour,

To summarize. we might say that the posrnve result. the net

eain from our responses to the three major challenges to our

survival has been the formulation of our national identirv and

rhe fornine of our national unity.

Overall. however. the loss suffered by the nation has been

tremendous. We have remained almost static in the domain of

economic and social development. Like a might" tvohoon. each

challenee to our nation left in its. wake a sbar-e-ed edifice of

national oroeress which etch time had to be painsrakinalv rebabilitared and reconsrrucred. We had no sooner mounted a barelv

successful recovery when another powerful blow would be administered to the nation.

It is not surprising, therefore. that our bouts with successive

cballenaes have generated a national svndrome of survivalism.Survival menralirv in turn inhibited. for the zrearer Part nfthe cenmrv. innovative thinking and positive n'annina for na

riona' develonmenr. The quest for oroere«. which is the be-t

T'1(k of national ereamess. has never enioved high priority 10

tbe acenda of the nation.

Perham. this point can he elucidated more ernphicallv l-v

comparing om record with that of Japan.

A few years azo. Japan celebrated with understandable pride,

the centenarv of the onset of the Meiii em. Du-inn that ((':"I.

rur-v, Iaoan had been transformed from a decavinu feudal Si'"l

cierv subsisting on agrarian economy to a modern state. an ~n

dnstrial colossus outranking most of the nations of the Western

world. inclndine Western Europe where the Industrial Revolntion had its beginnings.

The Philippines was probably better off than J:l\~;In in 1B72

when the Meiii Revolution had barely gathered momentum.After all. our counrrv had been exoosed to world cornmerrelong before 1854 when Japan made the fateful decision t"

abandon its policv of seclusion and exclusion rbar had ossified

its feudal socicrv for more than two centuries. Standing ar the

crossroads of East Asia. the Philippines was frcelv eXD05ed -othe winds of progress and benefitted from the world-wide com

mercial prosperity of the nineteenth centurv. at a time when

the Japanese shoguns and daimvos were frantical!v. if quixotic

.Tlr.e Next Challenge

In their book, The Lessons of History, \Vill and Ariel Durant

asked: "Of what use have (historical) smdies been? ,Is itpossible that, after all, 'history has no sense', that it teaches us

nothing, and that the immense past was only the weary rehearsalof the mistakes that the future is destined to make on a larger

stage and scale?"

The Second \\"'orld \Vat brought low "both japan and the

Philippines. But, whereas, the nuclear holocaust and catastrophic defeat which Japan suffered in 1945- could not long retardher powerful thrust cowards development.. we Filipinos are still

trying today to shake off the after-effects of the war and the

enemy occupation, still trying to negotiate a 19.11g postponed industrial takeoff. Openly envious and jealous. of OUf northernneighbor who long ago overtook us somewhere on the road andleft us far> behind. we are burdened with the feeling that

"history has double-crossed our nation" and robbed us of our"rendezvous with destiny."

to pride ourselves in our capacity to endure misfortune, our

ability to survive disaster. Inhabiting an archipelago located atone of the busiest crossroads of the Asian world, in the path

of the sea caravans' that' for countless centuries brought to our

shores an endless succession of traders and adventurers, teachers

and missionaries, colonists and conquerors-a land blest by thesun and curst by the wind-e-we Filipinos have learned to compareourselves to the bamboo that bends to the ste-m and rises again

when the storm has passed, a nation so resilient, so flexible,so desperately eager to survive that it may have forgotten what

ir is to stand up straight, in the face of typhoon or tyrant, forwhat is necessary and essential, for. what is right and just, andthus to survive standing erect instead of merely enduring, supineand safe,

When will we Filipinos learn that merely to survive is not

enough? That the syndrome of survivalism can become a disease which. in the end, may prove to be as fatal as radicalsuicide itself- since it could mean th{> eternal death of thehuman spirit?

Today, we Filipinos are called upon to respond to what is

perhaps the most serious challenge that has been flung at our

nation in a hun.deed years: the challenge of thorough-going social

reform and nanonal renewal, of a dynamic revolution that seeksto change us all, in heart and mind and spirit, not for a dayor a monrh or a rear, bur for always, "

The challenge we face is 'not to bend to the wind of martial

l~w, to wait, to keep quiet, to lie low, to become invisible, to

~Isappear-bemuse these are the devices of the opportunist; It

15 rather to do one's share in the difficult bur essential work

that is waiting to be done, so that our people, after this stren

uous time, of testing and trial, may move beyond the goal of

mere survival and achieve a more abundant life, a more mean

ingful existence, a mare JUSt and compassionate socierv. a moreeffective and democratic system 'of government. .'

What we need to do, in shorr, is to try to change the course

of Philippine history by rejecting the spurious analogy of the

b~mboo bending before the storm as symbolizing the highestWIsdom of narure, which is the instinct of survival, and to begin recognizing the vice of our virtue and making instead avirtue of our vice.

profes

by ad-since I am not amy brief remarks

At the risk of being presumptuous.sional historian, I would like to end

dressing myself to these questions.

I 'believe that the study of history has many uses. including

practical uses. While there may be no laws of his tory comparable'to the laws of physics which are immutable and 'hence' predict

able, the study of history 'can at least suggest certain guidelinesfor future action' based on what is known about man, nature

and society and what happens when' each of 'these acts upon orinteracts with the others. \'{lhile history may not repeat itself;

there is it certain Cyclical' pattern, a' rhythmic pulse,' in the

endless progression of events.

We may .rejecr '!he doctrine of .th~ capriciousness of fate. as.well as the doctrine 'of historical inevitability, but there is a

sense in whi~h history, as a c'hain of events. 'can be inHu"encecLperhaps organized.. and possibly even managed. ."

This, in effecr, is the ancient dispute between predestinarioaand free will. between belief in man as a pawn' in the handsof the gods and belief in man' as the master of his fate.

It is in this context that I now dare to pose a challenge to

ourselves as a people. The challenge is this: We Filipinos like

The Board of Regents, at its 840lh meeting on 13 December

1973, approved the following recommendations concerning reovolving funds:

I. Financing through revolving funds will cover the follow

ing cases:

A. Commercial or semi-commercial activities.

B. Continuing short-term academic or training ecuvrucs

or consultative services, including the preparationand administration of special tests and examina

tions.e. Maintenance of houses and equipment for rent.

D. Maintenance and repair of laboratories, including pur

chase of supplies, materials and equipment.E. Operation and maintenance of medical and/or dental

clinics operated independently of the UniversityHealth Service, Philippine General Hospital and

the Los Danos Infirmary. This would include the

diagnostic clinic and hospital of the College of

Veterinary Meeicine.F. Publication activities.G. Revolving funds established by specific provisions

of law.II. In all of the above cases, accrual to the revolving fund

would consist of the proceeds from the sale of goods or

services and disbursement would be in the form of sup

plies and materials purchase, labor and ocher related costs

of producing goods or services for sale.HI. It is understood that the revolving fund must not only be

self-supporting but must be able to contribute at least 15%of its gross annual income to the University for general

administrative expense, and its income and expenditurescan be dearly 'identified and segregated from other funds

of the unit.IV. Retention of the revolving funds in List A below and

the abolition of those in List B hereunder, following the

above- guidelines on revolving funds. Moreover, to reduce

further the number of revolving funds, only one labora

tory revolving fund for each college or unit, instead of

by department, will be allowed.The balance of revolving funds for abolition may likewise be

transferred to the general University fund.

A LAYMAN LOOKS AT THE CONSTITUTIONBy DR. SALVADOR P. LOPEZ

President, Unil'frJil)' oj the Philipfliu£,J

(Keynote add'l'H at the Lecture Series Otl the 1973 Constitution of tbe l)bilippil/C'J, V.P. Law Cosner, December 3, 1973)

•

•

Although it had been suggested that I would deliver todaythe keynote address that I had prepared for (he cancelledseminar on the new Constitution last January, nearly a yearago, I realized upon rereading that speech that It would not

be suitable to the present occasion. That speech, In effect, hasbeen overtaken b)' events.

As I was going over the program of this seminar. I was

struck by the arrangement of the speakers. The list beginswith a layman anJ ends wirh a judge. As keynote speaker, 1

open the series and Justice Fernando of the Supreme Courtcloses it. \,\/hocver made this arrangement is in obvious syrnpathy with the principle of judicial supremacy. As Chief Justice

Hughes once said, we live under a Constitution but the Consti

tution is what the judges S:ly it is. This seminar series confirms

the validity of this view. ~Ihatt\·cr the rest of us may say, the

judicial spokesman will have the final word.

Nevertheless, I am hopeful tbar judicial supremacy is notan obstacle to mv sharing a few thoughts with you on the Consti

tution. More and more, in public forums, constitutional questionsarc being avidij- discussed and some commcmarors a-c laymen,

not lawyers trained in the law. Somewhat rashly 1 follow their

example, believing {hat every citizen has the right to speak on

the Consriturion according to his lights. To parapbruse a common

saying, the Ccnsntuuon is too important to be left to rhc lawyers.

Having confessed to being a layman in the area of law, par.

nculurlv constinnional law, 1 know you will nor expect me to

dwell 00 conrcxrual subtleties or domina! cornplexiucs. Th::~e

1 leave to the distinguished lecturers in this conference.

The lmsie problem

let me address myself instead to what I consider to be the

central problem of constitutionalism in our contemporary society.The problem is whether or not the Constitution remains an

efficient instrument for the moderation of conflict within society.

There arc two aspects of this problem. One is the regulation offreedom in order In prevent anarchy. The other is the limitnuon

of power in order to prevent rvrann y.

Our Constiunion springs directly from the \\,'esttro tradition,

AI tho: heart of such tradition are the tenets of liberal democracy.These tenets are well known:

All men arc create..! Irce and equal.

The)' arc endowed by rhcir Creator with certain inalienablengbts.

Among these rights are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

To secure these rights, governments are instituted amongmen.

Govcmrrents derive their JUSt powers from the consent of thegoverned.

Go,'crnmcnt is thus a crc:\Iion of the people. It springs from.\'6:r .. n ......~.....n ("nn~eot based 00 common needs and interests.

better enjoy the freedoms they reserve {O themselves. By their

own free choice. individual liberty is limited in the common

interest so that a larger freedom is possible for all. This is the

theory of the social contract.

As a creation of the people, government is the instrument of

their civil liberties. From this theory of rhe social contract,

the fundamental principles of constitutional law have been de

riveW. The Constitution as the manifested will of the sovereignpeople is the Iundarncntal Jaw of the land. It is over and above

the government because it not only organizes but also directs and

controls its action. The government. as the creation of the

sovereign people, must conform to their will as embodied in

the Constitution,

The Constitution may thus be said to be the validating criterion

in a democratic polity. Because it is the general will of the

people made manifest and because the people arc the ultimatesource of power, every an of the government must conform to

the Constitution or it is invalid.

I am told that these doctrines arc still sound law and that

their validirv continues to be recognized. As soon as we consider

them in a Iar.'~C"r conrcxr. however we arc assaileJ by dOllbf'<:',

There 15 no corrcspou.lcncc between pnncip'e and reality.

\\;'e fail to discover the actualization of that general will which

,the Consunuional tenets presuppose. \\'~-. find instead only partial

manifcstcuons of C\1I11010n consent. Thc reality of the general

will eludes us, \X/Ilt'thcr through plebiscite, referendum or ekelion. we catch only a h3zy glimpse of the pcoplcs will, often

distorted as through <l broken ,cl:l.~s,

\Xle come 10 the uncomfortable realization that the foundations of Consutuuonal doctrines rest \10 social myths. Thcy arcaurhornanvc because tbl'Y arc binding. but thcy arc myths ju~t

the same. Lawyers call them legal ficricns. It is now part of

convcnrional wisdom to S3y that the people's will is outscientifically discoverable and lh.1l tbe social cc-.ntracr a~ il~

Libera! n-nduion u ndr-r c.'hnll('np:("

The situation Sh:01S from the polarization of political forcesinto Left and Right. 1n all nations rodav, regardless of the level

of development, democratic regimes of the liberal tradition arc

under challenge hy both thest' forces. In the hiahly dcvc'opcdsocieties, such :lS those of tln- \\-'cst, including the Unite,{

States of America. the confrontation is rnitip.:r.tcJ by a coodition of industrial affluence. But in the Jess developed nations,the confrontation is direct and the snuggle is rbcreiorc fierce.The universality of such confrontation and struggle underscoresthe absence of consensus as social reality.

reaching consequences for the national well-being. Each nationaleconomy is subject to unpredictable. 'disturbances resulting from

geographically remote events, including economic dislocations

and political upheavals.

\\firhin each national society itself, challenges arise without

end. Specialization has brought about interdependence, which ismerely another name {or mutual dependence, often resulting

in a condition of mutual insecurity.

nil,: prohlcnrs brr-r-d nil: Gonl'nun-Ilt

Problems peculiar to the twentieth century exact their 1011.\X'e are told that increasingly we shall he confronted with the

Malthusian spectre of overpopulation. B,' a singular irony, the

gift of life has itself become the threat to an improved quality of

life. There is a world-wide clamor for higher standards vf

living and rhis, in turn, has created a headlong rush tcwar.l

endusrrialiZatiOn as the key to the nffluenr society, There .severywhere a formidable residue of age-old inequalities, Cl.lhl a

corresponding clamor for massive reforms. \'!e realize that social

justice is possible only through social transformation.

The confluence of these pressures has generated a degree ofgovernment intervention in our lives unparalleled in human

history. Big problems breed Big Government and everywhere in

the world today. we find government assuming mort' and moretasks and correspondingly expanding its powers.

This situation poses profound problems for rradirional constitutionalism. In the face of mounting government regulation,

what is the proper sphere of individual liberty? How can

popular sovereignty be ensured as a continuing reality? Through

what mechanism can the great issues of policy remain in thehands of the people?

The validirv of the democratic order depends upon effectivecontrol of delegated power. This is the very essence of the

Rule of 1:-1\\". Bur the emerging conditions of life rend to

• undermine the el1icl\cy of rraditional-: controls. More and more,

emergencies recur in -modern socieryj- indeed, one might-say, that

the modern condition is a condition of perpetual crisis, lt .isaxiomatic .rhar an emergency crea.lcs emergency power, and

recurrent emergencies tend to make that power permanent. The

result is the enlargement of executive discretion, and legal controls tend to recede as such discretion expands. This must

diminish, in turn, the scope of the Rule of Law. Finally, the

COUftS themselves are called upon to validate the assertion and

exercise of executive power in the emergency. The circle is

complete.

Freedom lin!' no nationnlitv

I do not hold with those who S3y that the \'\'estern forms of

liberal democracy are appropriate for Europeans and Americans,

but are nor suited to Africans, latin Americans, and Asians,

including Filipinos. Freedom has no nationality. and neither has

tyranny. Both have occurred and recurred in all ages, all climes,

all cultures, all civilizations. No race, nationality or society has

had a monopoly of either.

In his book, Today's Revolmion-e-Democracv, President Marcos

quotes with 'approval the Hegelian doctrine that "history is the

story of liberty." I think he would agree that Philippine history

is essentially the story of the Filipino's courageous and tireless

striving for liberty.

\'\1e have raised large: questions that arc of profound interest

to al1 who are concerned with human liberty and the future of

constitutionalism. 1£ our remarks are somewhat less sanguine

than expected. let me assure you that our purpose is nor to

depress your democratic hopes, but to invigc-are them with n

sense of sober realism. Liberty cannot be served by the

repetition of o~d and outworn platitudes. It can only be servedby a candid examination of the cbanginu conditions in which

we live. In the end, it is only upon the foundations of social

reality that we can build firmly a national society worthy of our

libertarian heriragc-c-a iree, democratic. just and compassionate

society which we have a duty to hand down to our children.

tion on development needs without sacrificing general education.basic and applied research as ",'ell as community service.

The overall concern for national development and the equallylegitimate desire to maintain and improve academic standardswould be better served if the system moved gradually towardeventual integration and unification. The mechanism for unify.ing the system and safeguarding the quality of higher educationis the process of accreditation. For private institutions, membership in the system would entitle them to government assistanceand other privileges.

The Philippine National University System is envisioned as athree-level system with coordinated plans and objectives. It wouldhave such features as standardized salaries and fringe benefits,innovative staffing arrangements whenever possible, sharing oflibraries, labcrarories and other facilities. Students would beable to take courses at various campuses during the same academic year without undue difficult)'. There would be two types

of institutions, the autonomous units and the four-year collegesthat will join the system.

Higher education in a region would be in the form of a singleunified sub-system. This would consist of a number of four

year colleges spread around the region, the nucleus of which

would be a university offering undergraduate and graduate programs which are closely articulated with the development needs

of that region. The regional university sub-system would provide' coherence to all higher education resources in meeting theneeds of adults on a geographical basis.

The local colleges are expected to offer 8" broad range of educational programs to which admission is essentially open and toprovide service to the local community. Their curricula wouldinclude rigorous preparatory programs for those who 'will seek

advanced degrees, one and two-rear technical training programs,special training programs and the bachelor's degree. .

It is in the regional universities and the four-year collegeswhere a greater diversity is expected in terms of ethos, cultureand economies of scale.

The completely integrated system here envisaged is ambitious,but nor impossible. It needs collective determination to trans.form it into a reality. The national universities would be heavily

financed from public funds and draw their srudenrs from all regions. They would help implement programs that entail researchor training in high-level professions-for expanded. health <are,adminisrrae- and reacher renewal, pollution control, natural reosources deeelopmcnr, human setrlemcnr, etc. Their graduate pro.grams womld build on existing strengths and panerns of publicsupport would affect decisions regarding the development of newprograms. There would probably be a distribution of dusters ofspecializatens among them as well as consortium arrangements.

A Countil of Higher Education would provide overall governAnte even as member institutions retain their respective governing boards, The Council would be composed of representativesof governnear and of the different groups within the system.Among odlers it would have the following powers:

1. To implement the National Board of Education's policieson liigher education.

2. To fbrmulate, advise and recommend policies and measureson higher education within the system to the NationalBaaxl of Education.

~. To supervise and regulate Institutions of higher learning.4. To ccordinere me implementation of policies on such mar

,. To promulgate rules and regulations for the administrationand operation of the system.

6. To determine, grant or withdraw university status.

7. To approve the opening of new member-insriturions.8. To approve the admission into the system of applying in

stitutions.

9. To deve'op general guidelines and rules of instruction, research and community service with a view to conserving,transmitting and extending knowledge, and to contributingto the goals of national development.

The Accreditation Board would be an independent body consisting of various sub-ccmminees for different disciplines andprofessions. Perhaps these committees could also function asexamining boards for licensing purposes. In any case the Ac·creditation Board could advise the Council of Higher Educationwhile the latter could also advise and inform the Board on matters pertinent {Q its work. The relationship would be reciprocal.

At the same time the Accreditation Board would serve as a tech

nical arm of the National Board of Education.

Accreditation is conceived as operating on ('Q,·O levels: accredi

tation by program and by institutions. The latter purpose would

be served by the formulation of criteria for a national university,a regional university and a local college.

Summa!")'

The integrated national system of higher education would bea network of autonomous universities linked by an integrated

policy. Some of these universities would be located in strategicregions with diversified programs corresponding to regional development needs. A few universities, such as the University of thePhilippines System, would concentrate on advanced studies and

research. This does not connote total disengagement from under

graduate work, for such universities would have a responsibility

for the continuing development of model and innovative undergraduate programs.

It would also include four-year colleges whose curricula offer

ings would be tailored to more specifically local needs, but whosegraduates would have access to further education in the regionalor national universities within the system.

This three-level system would make operational the criteria ofequity and equality, of sound financing based 00 objectives and

the kind and quali ry of programs. of responsi veness to developmental and social needs, of intelligent decentralization.

The system is not regarded as a fixed, rigid structure. On thecontrary, the principle of internal mobility is essential to i~

COntinued development. Dependent on compliance with accreditation standards, a four-year college may be transformed graduallyinto a regional universiry nor is mere any obstacle to a ~gional

university becoming national.

The present Universirs of the Philippines System could serveas a model for the development of the proposed integrated national system of higher education. Its operation as a systemhas already been validated by Presidential decree and by experience, and it is in a good position to submit to rigorous accreditation processes. It would itself become an autonomous member o( the larger system proposed, and thereafter irs growth asa national universiry would occur under the umbrella of anintegrated policy on higher education.

The main argument for inviting the accredited private institutions to join the system as autonomous members 'With a right entitlement to incentives, including state aid, is that the Philippinescan no longer alford higher education that is fragmented andunrelated to enlighrened public policy.

quiry and disciplined reasoning in their academic programs andecuvmes. The continued polarization of these institutions into

public and private, sectarian and non-sectarian, stock and nonstock, etc. tends to militate against the stronger influence loracademic freedom and academic excellence that they could exercise together.

Another cogent argument is the egalitarian view. The presentnetwork of private and public colleges and universities conrribures to the maintenance of a stratified society; graduates of o:rrain universities, for example, have relatively easier access to positions of prestige and power than others. It can be argued, onpolitical and moral grounds, that public higher education, as aninstrument of public policy, should operate to minimize the stereotyping of graduates of particular kinds of colleges, especially sincefor many people the decision to attend a particular college or university depends on such circumstances as who their parents are.where they live, and how much money they can afford to pay.·elt is irrelevant, if not irresponsible, to perpetuate this type ofelitism. Unless something is done about it, higher education willremain inaccessible to many who deserve it.

In brief, the main justification for this proposal is the desire to

serve the youth and the nation in a more rational and effectiveway. Students must be educated for self-fulfillment, for useful employment, and for national development. Since ours is a developing country with modest means and resources, we must begin

immediately to co.recr the wastefulness of the present state ofhigher education, with its endless duplication and proliferationof institutions and programs. We must introduce into the field

of higher education a sense of order, discipline, rationality andorganization.

In short, we must give our nation a system of higher education.

This is not going to be easy. As a neophyte, perhaps a maverick, among educators, I often feel like a bull in a china shop

whenever I talk about reforming higher education in our country.Many, perhaps tOO many studies, proposals and recommendationshave already been made to reform our educational system, including our so-called system of higher education and I should notadd one marc. While these studies and proposals have doubtless

been professionally competent, sincere and well-meant, they haveall suffered from a common fault, namely, a tendency to tinker,but not to tamper with the basic realities of our non-system ofhigher education. This attitude resulted from powerful pressuresto maintain the status quo, so that nobody would be hurt too badly, if at alL This attitude naturally doomed all these finestudies and proposals to failure as fine-spun exercises in futility..

The time has come when we must stop tinkering with highereducation and instead begin boldly to renovate it from top tobottom. That certain vested interest'S will be adversely affectedgoes without saying, but that's the price we must pay in order

to protect the national interest and advance the public good.

Happily, there ate signs that we may have the vision endthe courage to do the job at last. Against outspoken and wide

spread opposition, we are finally implementing a national pol

icy of selective admissions into college and universiry-e-a policythat is certain to reduce collegiate enrollment by keeping our

those who are not qualified for tertiary education. The gov

ernment is bent on taxing private educational instituions, while

freezng tuition fees at the same time, on the sound theory that

educational institutions are established to spina money andhave no right to make money, and that if they do, they must

pay taxes.

This is just a beginning, but the signs are dear that we areon the threshold of a historic reformation that will give ourcountry an integrated national system of higher education inplace of the present non-system which verges on anarchy.
