On the afternoon of August 13, 2012, an actor gone senator delivered a speech that caused many politicians, media practitioners and Filipinos to cry out of pity and sympathy. The senator talked about the abortive side effects of contraceptive pills, which, among other family planning options, would be available to the general public once, if…
It’s official. The Board of Directors has named, constituted, appointed, and designated Br. Ricardo Laguda FSC as the President and Chancellor of De La Salle University in the Investiture Ceremony held last, September 14, 2012 at the Chapel of the Most Blessed Sacrament.
