Last Friday, March 14, 2014 we had off campus activities for entrep class at AGSB clark.  Our schedule which was posted at Prof Jorge at Ateneo blog covered visits to the business of Liza, Michael Tan and Doctor Edu Tuazon. Then afterwards, we were supposed to have Finance Spread sheet discussion by Bong Canlas, the PDQ analysis.

However, since everybody enjoyed the place of Dr. Edu,  I decided not to break the fun and double time instead on the next meeting.



I had this idea since we learn more from the stories of the students on how they built their businesses, whether they are the first or the second gen. As facilitators, we learn more from the accomplishment of the students and we have better perspective of the lives and background of students.  In this case, they had gone a long way and have arrived in terms of entrepreneurship.

They are much better looking outside the classroom;  they could not be judged on the basis of  paperssubmitted in class.  REmember this is a GSB;  not merely a term paper institution.

I am saddened by the lack of closure on the incident here in Clark;   rumors and innuendos still persist and they may hurt the school, and the reputation of the students whose businesses are based on trust (including honesty)
