54 CLUB ADVISERS LEAD OFF YMCA WORKSHOP YMCA AMAZE BAGUIO Approximately 275 participants from different clubs and organizations convened in Baguio City on December 4-8, 2013 spearheaded by the Young Men’s Christian Association of Manila. Student leaders and Campus Club Advisers were elated after the series of activities were accomplished by the representatives from 43 State Universities and Colleges. The organizers put some adaptations in this year’s gathering by dividing the participants into groups that allowed the campus club advisers to have their separate session. Among the relevant topics to be discussed will be Socio-cultural Aspects in the Philippine Society, Socio- political Dynamics of Good Governance, Facing Climate Change, Laws and Jurisprudence Affecting Campus Advising and How to Manage Bullying among others. This year’s theme was: YMCA: Bridging Realities of Hope. This event will be concluded with a candle lighting ceremony with a light of hope in everyone’s face. #Abundio C.
