About 800 college freshmen and transferees were baptized with Sebastinian charisms last Friday (July 31, 2009) as they attended the traditional welcome event called Day Camp 2009.

Instituted to spearhead bonding and generate an atmosphere of oneness in spirit and values, the event convened together college faculty, student assistants, lay and religious administrators and other members of the Sebastinian community.

There’s no
stopping the Stags in their quest for supremacy this 85th Season of the NCAA. Heralding a 6-0 solo lead, SSC-R Manila now enjoys highlights from the following broadsheet lifts.

Relentlessly staging a lead by 5-0, STAGS are really “back and dangerous” after the win in the stormy Friday fight against EAC and in a very comfortable win yesterday with the “supposedly” threatening Arellano University. Delight with these sports articles by Cedelf P. Tupas of the Philippine Daily Inquirer.

Stags now rule once more in team standing after its third win in this year’s NCAA season.

Following are sports stories lifted today from two broadsheets, Philippine Daily Inquirer (by Cedelf P. Tupas) and Manila Standard Today (by Peter Atencio).

The remarkable NCAA Opening last Saturday, June 27 afforded San Sebastian its first win in Senior Basketball handily defeating Perpetual Help Daltas with 76-64.

Setting the pace with powerful moves and drives were Jimbo Aquino and Gilbert Bulawan whose scores combined were half of the team’s total output.

Meanwhile, in their second game (held July 1), Stags won over the four-peat seeking San Beda College with 83-77.

Celebrating a foundation day is definitely the most awaited and exciting moment for the entire school community. Aside from the fact that it offers a long break from the mind-dredging academic work, it gives the students and employees the weeklong fun and excitement to be in school with cool and festive environment – that’s a whole lot of reason to break free.

The weeklong affair aimed at capturing the June 20-24 period. It was however ushered by a delightfully educational seminar on saving the wildlife on June 19. The seminar featured Kuya KIM Atienza of ABS-CBN’s “Matang-Lawin” and “Umagang Kay Ganda”
who enthralled everyone with his lingual expertise on animal and wildlife terminologies and his line-up of rare animals which he brought along with him on stage. An advocate of animal and wildlife protection, “Kuya Kim” is no doubt an animal lover whose heart is into broadcasting. His “Matang-Lawin” had earned him the Golden Dove Award for Best Educational Program while he bagged the PMPC Best Educational Program Host. Proving his serious concern for animal protection advocacy he offered his winnings of P1M in “Deal or No Deal” tv program on ABS-CBN to fund projects for the endangered animals. The seminar was ably facilitated by Marge Natividad, executive producer of “Matang-Lawin” and a mass communication graduate of SSC-R Batch ’94. Organizing the seminar was the College of International Hospitality Management (CIHM). CAS, CABACS, Grade School and High School also gave support by fielding all students and faculty to the auditorium.

Priest and lay administrators of SSC-R Manila took time out to meet for the needed Annual Institutional Planning last January 29-30, 2009 at the 8 Waves Waterpark & Hotel in San Rafael, Bulacan.

The Philippine Accrediting Association of Schools, Colleges and Universities (PASSCU) has granted San Sebastian College-Recoletos Manila the Level III status last November 28, 2008. The College of Arts and Sciences and Business Administration were granted re-accreditation for a period of five years while the College of Hotel and Restaurant Management/Tourism was granted initial accreditation for a period of three years. Meanwhile, the Computer Science/Information Technology Programs are allowed to apply for a formal survey one year after receipt of a required report. Rev. Fr. Dionisio C. Cachero, OAR (president) expressed his grateful appreciation to the whole Sebastinian community for the full support and cooperation. He urged everyone to continue aiming for greater excellence as the school intends to pursue for a university status.

Some 50 secondary schools in Manila and nearby areas were invited to join the CHEERING COMPETITION and HIP-HOP DANCE CONTEST slated on January 24 – 10 am at the Quadrangle of SSC-R Manila. Expected to bring in crowd and the loudest cheers during the culminating part of the weeklong 62nd Foundation Celebration are students and participants from the following schools which were given invitation to join the said contests:

1. La Consolacion High School, Caloocan City
2. Espiritu Santo Parochial School, Tayuman, Sta. Cruz, Manila
3. St. Mary’s Academy, Sta. Ana, Manila
4. Paco Catholic School, Paco, Manila
5. St. Anthony School, Sta. Ana, Manila
6. Nazarene School, Quiapo, Manila
7. Malate Catholic School, Malate, Manila
8. Holy Child Catholic School, Tondo, Manila
9. Philippine Cultural High School, Tondo, Manila
10. Our Lady of the Sacred Heart, Galas, QC

The traditional institutional Christmas Party held last December 27, 2008 brought everyone the spirit of winning. Celebrating the theme “Paskong Panalo Bawat Sebastino”, the occasion truly situated everyone in an atmosphere of fun, excitement, and entertainment plus gifts for everybody.

The affair started with a community mass with all the priests administrators. Rendering the homily, Fr. Cachero mentioned that although the season is inviting for a joyful celebration, it is not the funfare that makes Christmas significant but more so because Jesus Christ became man to save mankind from the bondage of sin. He stressed that Christmas is the time for God’s love, time for healing, time to bring Jesus into our hearts, needs, and in our working environment. This will strengthen our harmony and will allow us work better to attain our vision, mission and objectives.

Spicing up the program were dance numbers from the security and janitors, grade school, lay administrators, NTP and CIHM. Song numbers were provided by CABACS (caroling with a dance number), Graduate Studies and Law, CAS (with impersonation), High School (rap number), and the religious administrators. The usual most awaited part went to the IREP which did a “satire” entertainment skit, all for the fun of it.

Iclive “IC” Atilano and Rachel Dimaandal mastered the emceeing with very entertaining with effective hosting chemistry.

Major raffle winners were Crispo Gacita (1st prize-wooden cabinet), Marilyn Estrada (2nd prize-washing machine), Nanette Ramos (3rd prize-stand fan), and Rhonel Nicolas (4th prize-bag of grocery items). Other winners were Casimiro Carait, Joy Christine Manong, Jacqueline Lucero, Regino Nacional, Marivin Tuazon, Carmelo Galan, Erlinda Barroga, Owen Buladaco, Mark Lee Dela Torre,, Luisito Empleo, Charlene Santos, Mary Jane Bautista, Relly Magcanam, Dernando Viado, Rodein Milan, Conceso Calicdan, Jr., Ma. Luisa de Vera, Lpablo Castante, Dindo Aseron, Mario Guevarra, Fe Bedia, Ana Lourdes Aseron, Imelda Arcilla, Joselito Cndo, Ramon Montierro, Rachel Dimaandal, Roger Gorayebe, Anita Servando, Eduardo Noda Jr., Jaivie del Socorro, Mar Fortuno, Gambie Adaro, Jacob Opiana, Charlene Bacud, Lolita de Guzman, Josefina Dincong, Imee Monte, Nestor Torrefranca, Redento Rufon, Elena Tating.

Friday night brought an unfamiliar crowd-drawing set-up in front of the renown Basilica of San Sebastian when GMA 7’s SURVIVOR FINALE held a live feed coverage to dramatize support for its management student and survivor finalist JUAN CARLO “JC” TIUSECO.

Scoring 5 against Rob Sy’s 2, winning came in handy while the crowd roared loudly with San Sebastian being mentioned several times equally sharing that “winning moment” on national television.

Here are lifted feature stories to enjoy..
