And for those who can not attend due to some unavoidable circumstances we wish you all well. This gives me the opportunity to give thanks and gratitude to all, to make this reunion happened, and encourage to renew our friendships and fellowships. To all our executive officers, the group coordinators , the volunteers, and with the planning committee who devote their time to make possible an extra effort so this reunion will succeed. Thank you very much. Looking ahead to the future, many good ideas were presented. We have just really begun, our Association is very young and yet we were able to embark and start our projects, though it may sound little it is truly what we can do for a start. Thank you to all our officers and all members who made this all possible in cooperation of the president of our FEU-NRMF Medical Technologist Alumni Society. Our new name will soon be applied to our Corporate office as the FEU-NRMF Medical Technologist International Alumni Society with our new Logo with all members approval. The original proposal for Lifetime membership - this may not be a good choice for others but this message must be disseminated as it is a good choice for a long term plan. This shows we need all graduates to do all members participation. Membership is a great asset of any association. When we started the Awards for Academic Excellence in 2010 we started with 2 recipients only, but when we announced to all members the chance to give voluntarily we developed six more awards for there are more sponsors in 2011. Your generosity shows there are more alumni - fully blessed and truly are ready to share their treasures. This lead more students to aspire higher goals as they expect to receive a cash certificates as a gift which will be an instrument to motivate young minds. This will also create an incentive to others though it is small amount it will be multiplied as the years to come. A Vision of Industry Sponsorships- As an alumni group a grant may qualify us, for funds from large Research/Industry companies. Someday this may come to a reality. Let us all try to see other avenues so that we can encourage more young graduates to excel . More active members will lead us to create the Continuing Education as needed. Please come forward and volunteer to make use of your God-given talents, and Let it shine. In closing, let us pause for a silent prayer for those who are shut-ins due to some illnesses, May God grant and renew their health. Also for those departed souls, may they rest in Peace. And for those who are present let us rejoice and be thankful for our able minds and bodies. Let us all dance and have fun. Mrs. Lily A. Cometa Beltran President, FEUMTAANA FEUMT, 1967 MTASCP 1969 MTASCP Associate 1972 2 THE LEGACY LIVES ON Alicia A. Aldave Just like my favourite bioluminescent bacterium Vibrio harveyi, the Medical Laboratory Science graduates and/or alumni of FEU-NRMF SCHOOL OF MEDICAL TECHNOLOGY continue to shine and bring honour to their alma mater. The Professional Regulation Commission (PRC) awarded FEU-NRMF as SECOND Top Performing School with a 98.28% passing percentage last September 2011 Medical Technology Licensure Examination and the FIRST Top Performing Medical Technology School with 96.77% passing percentage last March 2012 throughout the Philippines. RICO 2011 alumnus Mr. Jake Lester Villanueva was 10th placer in September 2011 whereas MiCO 2012 alumnus Ms. Kathleen Joy Labrador placed 8 th in March 2012 Medical Technology Board Exam. FEU-NRMF also garnered a 94% passing rate in the recent September 2012 Medical Technology Licensure Examination. Our alumni homecoming held last February 2012 was a great success. For the first time, a Continuing Professional Education (CPE) seminar was organized in association with PAMET-USA and FEU-MT North American Alumni Society. The event was well attended not only by FEU- MT alumni but also by other non-FEU alumni. It was a huge success that people were already looking forward for the repeat of the event. FEU-NRMF MT Alumni Society continuously provides the support to its alma mater holistically. This includes community projects, faculty development program, student assistance, academic awards (for which I have to thank the sponsors), leadership/excellence award for graduating Medical Technology/Medical laboratory Science Students and seminar - workshop. In addition, the Most Outstanding MT Faculty Award and Scholarship to deserving Medical Technology / Medical laboratory Science students are about to be given. We are also in the process of making a newsletter (electronic email only) and improving our website. These tasks are not easy but with God nothing is impossible. Our hearts will always be with FEU-NRMF, our alma mater, whom we are so grateful and forever we will be serving with utmost pride and dedication. The legacy will live on and that will begin with each one of us. To God be the glory. To: Lily A. Cometa Beltran, MT. ASCP President FEUMTAANA- FEUMedical Technology Alumni Association of North America. Good Day, Madame! I humbly want to thank you for the award that the Alumni Society has given to me as the most outstanding graduate of Medical Technology 2012. It is a great honor to now be a part of the Medical Technology Alumni Society of the institution. As we, the new graduates, embark on the journey as medical professionals, the knowledge and skills that was imbued to us by the institution may bring forth changes and development for our fellowmen and to the country as a whole. May the Society inspire more young achievers to aim high, and more power to you and everyone. With many thanks, Arielle L. Dellosa FEU-NRMF school of Medical Technology, RICO 2012
