MCU - FDTMF Seal

On the day of its founding until the early nineties, the MCU-FDT MEDICAL FOUNDATION did not have its own college seal. It used the university seal for its official functions.

Upon its conversion to a foundation on June 28, 1971, and its full accreditation by the Association of Philippine Medical Colleges, the administrative officials thought of designing its own college seal.

Vice-President for Administration Mrs. Luningning T. Estanislao, Dean Lutgarda C. Quito, and Medical Director Esperanza F. Rivera joined together to conceptualize the college seal. Finally, in the late eighties a college seal came into being.

The seal contains a triangle within which a caduceus. The triangle is further enclosed by a circle with MCU-Filemon D. Tanchoco College of Medicine 1947 clearly printed in the ring encircling it.
The three sides of the triangle have a two-fold significance. First, the three sides represent the three components of the Mission-Vision of MCU-FDTMF: 1) Education, 2) Patient Care and Community Service and 3) Research. Second, the three sides also stand for the three equally important sectors of the College: 1) the Administration, 2) the Faculty and other personnel and 3) the Alumni and Students. Together they work to make the Mission-Vision of the College a reality.

POETRY ATTEMPTS

MEDICUS members were a talented lot. MEDICUS members were born leaders and innovators in a situation they were in. When I was at MCU we were always called by the Dean of the College to tell us, that some things were done and they know that MEDICUS is the only one who can do it and blamed for it. In this post were written attempts in POETRY by MEDICUS members. Expressing their different ideas in a poetic way. Conveying messages to their brods, sis, and love ones.

Dear Brods and Sis,

It takes time to become somebody.

It takes pain and sorrow.

It takes mistakes to learn.

It takes degradations and expectations ...

But most of all, we must all know

-IT TAKES LOVE TO MAKE IT ALL WORK OUT. ...

because with this,

we learn,

become somebody

and maybe

achieve utmost happiness.

- THE CONS

Beneath the mask of a man's smiling face,

is the weeping heart of a dying race. . . or

though man has learned to fly like a dove,

Not all has learned the true meaning of LOVE.

SPIKE

FOR MY SWEETHEART. . . A GIRL I MET

A year ago I met a girl,

A Very special kind of girl,

Though easily get irritated,

A smile from her makes me crazy,

Thinking of her makes me dizzy.

She is always in my dream .

Like a lily in the stream.

If you think you are beaten,

you are;

If you think you dare not,

you don't;

If you like to win,

but think you can't,

It's almost a cinch you won't!
