Now I’m off to check my busy schedule if I can squeeze some time for this one. I’ve been meaning to enroll myself in a photography class.

Online Students Are Spared.

The local news about the A(H1N1) pandemic flu seems unending. In fact, the news every night is just a repeat of the previous days’, only with a different data as to how many now has contracted this overhyped flu scare. The school year has just started but some schools (if not most), have already temporarily suspended their classes for precautionary measures. Lucky those colleges and universities who are able to hold online classes, they can somehow move on with their lessons without leaving their homes and they are spared from the flu spread. This is when online colleges come in to be the wisest choice such as Capella. Capella University is an accredited full online university that offers graduate degree programs in business, information technology, education, human services, psychology, public health, and public safety, and bachelor’s degree programs in business, information technology, and public safety. Based in Minneapolis, MN, it is the only online university offering a master’s degree program with a state-approved specialization in reading and literacy.

My Dearest Alma Mater: UST.

This is the Main Building of University of Santo Tomas, my alma mater.

UST Main Building
Massive, imposing, seemingly solid, this famous city landmark overwhelms the visitor. Unpainted and gray, bleached by the elements, the rugged stonewalls have acquired an aura of its own. It has the distinction of being the first earthquake-proof building in the country. Designed by Fr. Roque Ruaño, O.P., priest and engineer, the building is composed of forty independent structures separated from each other by a gap of one inch, which is filled with loose cement. One of these structures rises beyond the level of the fourth floor to form the tower in the center of the huge box-like stone mass. A cross atop the tower rivets the gaze of the beholder. It promises the student a Christian perspective, a Christian formation. It symbolizes the University’s mission to impart knowledge in the sacred and civil sciences.
