YOUR HONOR AND YOUR BURDEN Emil Q. JBvi9f
We also need to understand where we stand with regard to globalization, which with the GATT-WTO and APEC are part of the reality of our lives. Through distance learning, we hope to solve the perennial problem of the shortage of places for young people aspiring to a place at the University of the Philippines. As graduates of UP, you have now joined the ranks of the “aristocracy of brains and characters”.
UP's IMPERATIVE IN ERA OF GLOBALIZATION
For generations, the university has been a training ground for the country's brightest human resources. The impressive performance of medical school alumni in the best medical centers of the world confirms this fact. In addition, UP plans to play a significant role in the national celebration of the centennial of the Philippine Republic next year.
MESSAGE T01997 FRESHMEN Emil Q. Javisr
Mobilizing the support of the UP alumni, especially those who benefited most from their UP education, is yet another. UP needs to identify which among the sectors of the Philippine economy are potential winners and which could be losers. To this end, the University has drawn up UP Plan 2008, a master plan for improving the university's ability to respond to the needs of the country in the new millennium.

COMMENTS ON HOUSE BILL 9935
AN ACT PROVIDING FOR A MAGNA CARTA FOR STUDENTS)
It is the faculty's duty in the exercise of academic freedom to seriously consider the results of this evaluation and to introduce corrective measures, if necessary. It • is therefore the responsibility of the State to provide quality education accessible to all." Here we will have to address the issue of flexibility, which emerges amid the challenges of the 21st century.
DEVELOPMENT IN THE GLOBAL ERA
I imagine that entry will no longer be understood as a limited number of places in the same educational program for the many who want to get in; but in a varied and broad menu of programs, tailored to the labor market and to individual interests, capabilities and motivations. In their submission to Congress regarding HB 9935 (formerly HB 55), they wrote, in part: “Schools that are rooted in and responsive to the immediate community. In these ways we will give substantial meaning to “Education for All” which our people rightly claim as a right and not a privilege.
RAPPROCHEMENT BETWEEN TECHNOLOGY AND CULTURE
In the past, the development of human resources and innovation underpinned the growth of the advanced industrial economies of the West. In the knowledge-based society of the future, which is already upon us, the pedagogical imperative is lifelong learning. Fortunately, information technology has been transformed into a decentralizing, rather than a homogenizing, influence with the advent of the personal computer.
