Ethics and Family-Work Life Harmony

Today is the first day of my third term at the graduate school. My first subject of the week: Business Ethics and Family-Work Life Harmony.

Confession: I'm supposed to be enrolled in Prof. Macachor's Management Accounting class (Monday) this term, but I changed my mind. I dropped the subject a few days before classes started and I replaced it with Ethics. I thought it would be a better move for me, so I can take core courses next term.

I came earlier than most of my classmates, but the amazing senior couple, were there already!
I chose to seat at the center of the middle row inside Room 520, our temporary classroom. It's my biggest class so far. Imagine, thirty one students under the renowned husband-and-wife tandem, Drs. Emiliano and Perla Hudtohan!

Confession: I did some advance on-line reading before coming to class. How about that! I hear somebody calling me nerd! :)

Our class went well. The Hudtohans like to consider themselves as facilitators (from the French word
facile meaning "easy") instead of professors. Sir Emil said that they want to be mentors, not "tormentors." But what struck me most was when he said that we have to take advantage of the 100 plus years of experience--Sir Emil's and Ma'am Perla's combined.

I think I will like this class, so I am excited what this course will bring. I hope it will bring out the best in me!

By the way, the Hudtohans are both
Ilonggos. Isn't that interesting? :)
