Countdown to 2011 begins

By Cliff Harvey C. Venzon
EVERYTHING seems to be in place for the UST Quadricentennial.
On December 18, during the traditional Paskuhan, Rector Fr. Rolando de la Rosa, O.P. will officially start the countdown to 2011, when Asia’s oldest University turns 400.
The countdown is titled ‘400 Days to 400 Years.”

Also during the Paskuhan, the theme song of the UST Quadricentennial will be sung, “Ako’s Isang Tomasino,” by industrial engineering alumnus Gerardo de Leon, who won the grand prize in the Q song writing contest.
On the same night, the quadricentennial prayer, flag, and mascot will be unveiled.
De la Rosa presented the long list of activities for the 2011 celebration during a press conference last December 11. read more »
