About the UA&P alumniThe UA&P alumni are those who have received at least one degree from the University of Asia and the Pacific or the Center for Research and Communication. As of June 2008, there are 5,230 UA&P alumni. The alumni have a very special role in their University. They're the only ones who are permanently a part of UA&P, since students and employees dissolve their formal association with the University upon departure. The alumni, on the other hand, are forever the children of their alma mater. Neither the alumnus nor UA&P can deny this relationship. Consequently, the alumni really are mature older brothers and sisters to the rest of the UA&P community. They have an indispensable role in teaching others about the spirit of UA&P by being a living example of it. Of course, this doesn't mean that they need to work in the University so as to be visible to the current students. Some will, but most won't. The best service that the alumni can do is to live UNITAS in an exemplary way—being hardworking, being of service to others, doing everything for love of God—amidst their personal environment, thereby setting a visible goal for others to aspire for. All this is succinctly expressed in the Alumni Oath, which is recited during the UA&P Commencement Exercises. About UA&PThe University of Asia and the Pacific (UA&P) is a private, not-for-profit institution of higher learning. It traces its beginnings to the Center for Research and Communication (CRC), a private think-tank that conducted economic and social research and offered graduate courses in economics. It gradually expanded its educational activities to other fields. In 1995, it was granted university status by the Commission on Higher Education and has since been known as the University of Asia and the Pacific. |  About OAAThe Office of Alumni Affairs (OAA) is the central link between the alumni and UA&P.
