Capturing the Bedan Culture

What do you see? I see 3 things: A way up and

another way down, a red arrow pointing towards the

level of the sky, and a young man carrying a child.

They say that “Once a Bedan, always a Bedan”

and this line deeply reflect how our culture as Bedans

capture us in this cycle that builds our identity as

individuals. We grasp our culture and it becomes our

own way of life.

In the different stages that we go through life as a Bedan – from being a

student, to our attitude towards work and

colleagues, and finally in building our own families

and cultivating within them (most especially with our

future children) the characteristic of a Bedan –

we never fail to end on top as we are trained to be

globally competitive, fully human, wholly Christian

and truly Filipino.Inevitably, even if we go

through all the stages and end up in the level of self-actualization, a Bedan can

always leave BUT will always return to his/her

alma mater.

Another new breed of Bedans will constantly

come along and that is how our culture goes on and on.

As a Bedan encounters integration, he transforms into a new being, befitting the distinct culture of the

school. This Picture depicts a Bedan, unleashing his

willpower and continuing to realize his potentials.

Like the Integration, Bedans undergo transformations in order to meet the school’s

mission and vision. Sometimes, failure comes in

our student life. But that should not stop us from achieving what we want.

We grow up to improve. We face difficulties to succeed.

We metamorphosize to unleash our fullest

potentials.

“Bedan Metamorphosis”By Adrian Dela CruzSecond Prize Winner

This picture gives a different view of the letters

of Jose Rizal to various people during the late 1800’s. It was a war

between Filipinos and Spaniards. A battle for

freedom for the Filipinos and a battle for domination

for the Spaniards.

This was a letter of Jose Rizal to Ferdinand

Blumentritt, a very close friend of his. It was a letter

about the state on the Philippines. Bedans have a strong grasp of Philippine

history and on how our independence was

achieved.

We look back at great people, like Jose Rizal, who had a big part in Philippine history and make sure that their

works and sacrifices will never be forgotten.
