Every three years, the Ateneo de Manila University awards alumni who excelled in sports during their school days. They are inducted into the Ateneo Sports Hall of Fame, which has a room named after it in the Moro Lorenzo Sports Center. Some awardees donated their sports memorabilia—medals, trophies, jackets and jerseys—which are displayed in cases with their photo and a write-up of their sports accomplishments. Aside from recognizing the men and women who played for the school, the award, the room, and the displays also aim to inspire current student-athletes who train at the center to excel in their own sports.

That's nice and I have nothing against this kind of recognition, but I can't help wonder if there is also an Ateneo Academic Hall of Fame, which is vastly more important in my opinion. But academics don't bring the alumni money. Darn. :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea. Bet his mum is very proud
