1. IT IS OF GREAT IMPORTANCE THAT STUDENTS UNDERSTAND THE RATIONALE BEHIND HAVING TO

TAKE UP A RIZAL COURSE IN COLLEGE. THE ANSWERS TO SUCH QUESTION CAN BE SUMMED UP BY TWO
POINTS:

- FIRST AND FOREMOST, BECAUSE IT IS MANDATED BY LAW. THE REPUBLIC ACT 425, KNOWN AS RIZAL
LAW BY SENATOR JOSE P. LAUREL THE LAW SPONSOR. THAT SEEKS TO ACCOMPLISH THE FOLLOWING
GOALS:

 TO REDEDICATE UVES OF YOUTH TO THE IDEAS OF FREEDOM AND NATIONALISM, FOR OUR
HEROES LIVED AND DIED
 TO PAY TRIBUTE TO OUR NATIONAL HERO DEVONNG MS AFE AND WORKS IN SHAPING THE
FILIPINO CHARACTER.
 TO GAW AN INSPIRING SOURCE OF PATRIOTISM THROUGH THE STUDY OF RIZAL'S LIFE, WORKS
AND WRITING

- SECONDLY, BECAUSE OF THE LESSON CON TAINED WITHIN THE CURE ITSELF. TO RECOGNIZE THE
IMPORTANCE OF RIZAL'S IDEAS AND TEACHING IN RELATION TO PRESENT CONDMON AND SITUATIONS
IN THE SOCIETY To ENCOURAGE THE APPLICATION OF VUCH IDEAS IN CURRENT SOCIAL AND PERSONAL
PROBLEM AND ISSUES. TO DEVELOP AN APPLICATION AND DEEPER C UNDERSTANDING OF ALL THE
RIZAL FOUGHT AND DIED FOR. To FOSTER DEVELOPMENT OF THE FILIPINO YOUTH IN ALL ASPECTS OF
CITIZENSHIP.

2. YES, FOR PAYING RESPECT AND HEARTFELT GRATITUDE TO HIS CONTRIBUTION AND SACRIFIFCES AND
OF OUR NATION. AND IT WAS THE BEGIN OF A PERIOD IN THE FILIPINO PEOPLE WERE MOST UNITED,
MOST INVOVLED AND MOST SPIRITED TO FIGHT FOR A COMMON CAUSE FREEDOM RIZAL PLAYED A
MAJOR PART IN OUR COUNTRY’S STRUGGLES FOR REFORMS AND INDEPENDENCE AND BY STUDYING I
HAVE SEAM OBSERVED SIMILARITIES AND DIFFERENCE OF SOME SCENE FROM TODAYS YOUTH. ONE OF
THESE IS THE MESSAGE OF LOVE AND APPRECIATION TO HIS DIALECT OR LANGUAGE, FOR IT IS THE
BRIDGE AND INTERMEDIARY CONNECTING PEOPLES COUNTRY TO EACH OTHER. HE WAS AN
IMPORTANT PERSON IN THE HISTORY, A GENIUS, WRITER, DOCTOR, ARTIST, LOVER, FRIEND, BROTHER
AND THE SON. A GOOD PERSON POSSESING VIRTUE WHOM I ADMIRED HIS WRITING AND THOUGHT HIS
LIFE IS THE FUNDAMENTALHISTORY OF THE PHILIPPINES. THE WRITING AND THE LITERATURE WILL
TEACHES ABOUT A LESSON, A LESSON THAT WILL GUIDE TO BECOME A GOOD CITIZEN IN OUR
COUNTRY. TO VALUE ABOUT THE MEANING OF LIFE AND FIGHT FOR THE LIBERATION. THROUGHOUT
THE 350 YEARS UNDER SPAIN AND 50 YEARS UNDER UNITED STATES, THE COLONIZERS COPED THE
TRADITIONAL FILIPINO LANDED AND EDUCATED ALITE NOT THE COLONIAL GOVERNMENT BASE IN
MANILA, PERPETUATING THE LATTER’S SOCIAL, ECONOMIC AND POLITICAL DOMINATION OF THE
PHILIPPINE SOCIETY, A CONSEQUENCE WHICH IS FELT UP TO THE PRESENT. THE PRINCIPKR OF RIZAL
COULD BE A GUIDE FOR TODAY ABOUT EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENED IN THE COUNTRY MOST
EPECIALLY THE LIBERATION.
