For his part, Dominican Province of the Philippines Prior Provincial fr. Napoleon B. Sipalay, Jr., O.P., underscored how the Master was not just present, but was physically present and available for many of the Province鈥檚 efforts.

The capacity to think and the need to do it together
During his message to the community at 六合彩直播开奖, Br. Bruno, who is formally called Very Rev. Fr. Bruno F. Cador茅, O.P., MD in 六合彩直播开奖 by virtue of his office as Grand Chancellor, joked that in the Province of the Philippines, he 鈥渞eceived a new baptism.鈥

Br. Bruno, a medical doctor specializing in bioethics prior to becoming a Dominican priest, emphasized that in universities most especially, 鈥渨e must believe in one鈥檚 capacity to think for himself and herself, and we need to think together for us to achieve true community.鈥

In an exclusive interview with the University鈥檚 , the outgoing Master of the Order said that he is personally amazed at God鈥檚 creativity, which is seen in how the Lord 鈥済ives unity in all this diversity,鈥 which he said is important, especially because 鈥渢here is a risk to always want to be different.鈥 The Master emphasized that 鈥渨e must find something common in all this diversity and make something together because we are a community.鈥

Prof. Marilu Ra帽osa-Madrunio, PhD, Dean of the  and faculty member of the  was chosen recently by the Embassy of the United States of America to represent the Philippines in the Summit on the Future of the TESOL Profession. The summit was held in Athens, Greece on February 9-10, 2017. TESOL is short for 鈥淭eaching English to Speakers of Other Languages.鈥

Dr. Madrunio joined other country representatives from South Korea, Taiwan, and Japan. All four were selected by the Regional English Language Officer (RELO) of Asia and the Pacific, Ms. Whitney Mirts. The RELO is based at the US Embassy in Manila.

The Summit discussed critical issues and included round-table discussions pertaining to language education on at least four areas: Futurology, English in Multiculturalism, Reimagining English Competence and The Profession as a Change Agent.

The field of Future Studies covered a discussion of broad, holistic perspectives essential for understanding the English language profession at present and in the future. The area on English in Multiculturalism focused on English being the ruling language that may eradicate linguistic diversity. However, the TESOL profession, in its mission to teach English, embraces the opportunity to simultaneously support multilingualism. Reimagining English Competence challenges the argument that English competence should be viewed in reference to a native or ideal speaker norm and in terms of the grammar of language. The Profession as a Change Agent highlights the view that each member of the TESOL profession must be empowered to foster positive change within a risk-tolerant culture.

The summit is held under the auspices of the US Department of State.
