MANALANSAN OF BATCH 1965 INDUCTED PRESIDENT OF FASAE-SOCAL; EHSians REUNITE

 

It turned out to be a reunion of sorts for the UST Education High School, as EHS alumni from different batches came in support of their friend and schoolmate Dan Manalansan on his installation as President of FASAE.

 

The Filipino American Society of Architects and Engineers, Southern California Chapter, (FASAE SoCal) celebrated their 15th-Anniversary Dinner-Dance and Induction Ball last August 29, 2009 at Marriott Long Beach in California. It was attended by approximately one hundred eighty (180) friends, family and relatives of the members and officers of the prestigious organization of Southern California. The dinner-dance/induction party is held every two years to install the new set of officers and board of directors for two fiscal years.  It was also a fund-raising event with the proceeds going to the scholarship program aimed to assist well-deserving students in the Philippines and in the United States, who are taking up technically-related courses.  The newly inducted President of the organization is Engr. Danilo “Dan” Manalansan, an alumnus of UST-EHS (Batch 1965) and a Mechanical Engineering graduate of Mapua Institute of Technology.  His theme for his term was entitled "Making a Difference ".

The guest speaker and inducting officer for that night was Engr. Benjamin Saldua, an Antenna Structural Engineer who works for the NASA Deep Space Network.  Benji is a good friend of Dan and another alumnus of EHS, Batch 1964.  He started his talk in a light and funny note that eased the audience.  He talked about the NASA and the Deep Space Network, and how stations are strategically located around the world to maintain a 24-hour contact with the spacecraft millions of miles away.  He gave us a glimpse of what a Filipino engineer is doing for the Space Program. 

 

Several EHS alumni attended the event to show support to the newly inducted President and Guest Speaker.  The emcee for the night's programme of activities was Ms. Myra Vergara-Villanueva, RN, from New York City, who made the evening even more interesting and made sure the activities were presented as planned.  Mai is another alumna of EHS, Batch 1975.  It was a glorious and memorable night for the induction of the new FASAE officers; awarding of the next FASAE scholar; enjoying a sumptuous dinner, and dancing the night away to the music of The Midnight Motion band, while raising money for the deserving scholars of the organization.

 

How else can you have fun, dancing, singing, networking with fellow engineers and architects, while doing it for a good cause?

We wish them all the best in the coming years and hope to see more attendees in their future Dinner/Dance.
