Pauloslos must be experiencing sleepless nights. I'll consider it a major blow after the CSC junked his charges against the Mandaue government.

AS IT APPEARS By Lorenzo Paradiang Jr. (The Freeman) Updated September 20, 2011 12:00 AM Comments (0) View comments
Quoting this paper, “Five students from Cañete’s MCC fail to secure certification for special eligibility,” since they could not show proof that their school is with CHED accreditation.
Thus, the Cañete campus not recognizing CHED for ALCU, has forfeited for its honor students the Civil Service Commission (CSC) “special eligibility” for graduating as Cum Laude, pursuant to PD 907. This is loosely similar to Republic Act 1080 for lawyers who apply for conversion of their BAR rating into First Grade Eligibility.
The special eligibility under PD 907 confers on the grantee the opportunity to land a job in the government service. In short, the cum laude graduate need not take the CSC competitive entrance tests, say, the sub Professional Career Service and the Professional Career Service exams. Incidentally, the yearly passing percentage for the national takers is a little over 10% only.
While Dr. Cañete bears the main burden of the blame, the students are not also blameless. To quote Madame Luping Cabahug Latonio, an educator whose high-standard school is in Consolacion, “These students chose to go to Paulus’ MCC with open eyes. They’re not victims here. They’re accomplices. There have been notices and warnings from the Mandaue City government – half a decade – since Mayor Jonas’ first term.”
With due deference to Rep. Luigi Quisumbing and the Cebu Provincial Board who both adopted a one-way side for the equally “guilty” students who knowingly are of no good standing, they should have also “hammered” on Cañete’s main role for the debacle. Did he “brainwash” the students even those who are not naïve, or “ignoramuses”? To quote Shakespeare, there’s something wrong in Denmark, to have reached this point of no return.
Unless the parents were that uneducated, or whatever, they also share the blame. Since the inception of the MCC until now, there have been supervening events putting the Cañete MCC’s legitimacy in serious doubt. And yet, they let their children stay put in blind loyalty.
In the last meeting of the Board of Trustees (BOT) of the legit MCC, Regional Director/Dr. Amelia A. Biglete and Atty. Lily Freida C. Milla of CHED Central Office, have committed for CHED to run after the “free-wheeling” post-graduate program of the Cañete campus. They have started tapping help from DepEd school divisions for complete lists of post-graduate students of Cañete, past and present.
Most post-graduate enrollees come from the public teachers group, precisely for promotional positions and salary grade adjustments. Others represent a scattered set, such as, lawyers, law graduates, accountants, employees of government, etc. How accurate are some guesses, or assumptions, that the program is lucrative, say, P30T to P50T per “package deal”?
Director Biglete and Atty. Milla want to identify the individual beneficiary of Cañete’s graduate school, mostly public school teachers. Atty. Milla hinted of coordinating with the Solicitor General’s Office on possible charges or indictment. Moreover, the post-graduate students are presumed to be aware of the academic “sinkhole” with “eyes open” as professionals, not amateurs, or naïve victims.
Given the direction taken by CHED and the actions it pursues, it augurs well for the cleansing from dishonesty and corruption of the academic field. Diplomas have to be earned honorably, free from doubts that schools are “milling” them like crazy. The final truth and sanity for all educational institutions to set should be for the youth to see their tutors and educators as realistic reflections of clean and honest learning. To quote Benjamin Franklin, “clean as a whistle”.
P.S. Kudos to grand-nephew, Engr. Justin Paradiang Mancao – son of Engr. Walter Mancao and Adelfa Paradiang (CPA), and grandson of Atty. Pompio A. Paradiang and Dr. Humilde Dadula Paradiang of Mandaue City and Cabadiangan, Compostela, Cebu – for passing the 2011 Board of Electrical Engineers Licensure Exams. Excellent pecan nuts do not bear dull peanuts, thanks God!
I just hope this would be settled since luoy ang mga napiit ug nailad ni pauloslos...
