Class '61, UP College of Business Administration

Well, there's no denying it, despite my light mahogany chestnut hair and Olay glow. We're the Golden Jubilarians this year and we're celebrating at the UPCBA Alumni Homecoming in December.

We're meeting every month building up our fund which we hope will build a “ring-a-ding-ding” (Frank Sinatra) MBA classroom complete with state-of the art video equipment and furnishings at the proposed UP graduate school building in The Fort. Congressman Junie Cua, a BA alumnus who loves CBA dearly gave P50M from his allocation but we heard something happened in Quezon Hall and we lost half of it. Sen. Franklin Drilon, ever the supportive UP law alumnus gave his college P100M.

That's some of us at Peking Garden, Greenbelt 5. Of course we also have to dine in style while raising funds. Many of our classmates are flying in from the US to attend the reunion.
