INTRODUCTION OF GUEST SPEAKER

This day will be noted us to be one of those rare and wonderful

moments because of our invited guest. Her name echoes the
essence of service, dedication and compassion.
Her achievements even when she was still students are truly
commendable as they mirror her great sense of commitment,
hard work and passion. Her non-compliance to mediocrity made
an indelible mark in the history of our university when she
graduated as the First “Summa Cum Laude” in year 1972.
Bold-spirited, she hurdled countless challenges in her professional
career. Hence, in year 1983, she earned her degree of Doctor of
Education from the University of the Philippines, Diliman Campus
with her dissertation entitled “Dimensions of Academic Freedom
among Social Science Faculty of Higher Education Institutions in
Metro Manila.”
Her portfolio of Professional Development and Training is
fascinating as each experience gives life to her being a woman for
others and a woman of God. To name a few, she had a training in
Moral Development and Education in the University of Minnesota,
Minneapolis, USA. She is also a part of the group study Exchange
Program to North New Jersey,USA. In 2006, our speaker had a
training in fund-raising and communication at the University of
Tunku Abdul Rahman,Petaling Jaya,Malaysia.
She is a precious gem of the University. She has held various
positions from being a director, dean, vice-president and
eventually President of this institution.
Being a mother of three equally gifted children is a glory she
always keep. Undoubtedly, she is a loving wife and a praise-
worthy homemaker.
A woman I personally admire because of her wisdom, generous
heart, caring spirit and unconquerable principle.
Please join me in welcoming Dr. Grace C. Jimeno-Rebollos.
