“A bedan is always a bedan” a vital philosophy that a true-blooded Bedista has, and that in fact is a philosophy that I surely will dwell on for the rest of my days. And by doing so, I am upright certain that I am a proud Bedan.
Something that fascinates me about being a Bedan is the culture of the community as a whole. Entering the world of San Beda comes with a feeling of warmth and hospitality because everyone treats one other with mutual respect and sees each other as brothers and sisters. Another thing that I have noticed in my four years of stay in this school is that people seems to transform in a way that there aren’t any dichotomy of different social classes because in this school, there is only one class, not the upper class, nor the middle class, but the Bedan class as I may call it. Its so amazing how everyone in the Bedan community gets along so well, because everyone, whether the students, professors, administrators, and even the vendors selling outside school gates appears as if they belong to one really big happy family. Aside from being a highly remarked Educational Institution in where many successful professionals graduated from, San Beda is definitely known for its Benedictine Values taught to people inside and outside the campus.
Definitely, a Bedan is high in character and even higher in values. Being a Bedan is not just simply about enrolling and studying in this institution, it is about absorbing the true Bedan Values in which St. Benedict has taught us, and keeping it inside our hearts, minds, and souls for the rest of our lives. Honestly speaking, it is not in academics that I have learned most in this school, because the most important things I’ve learned here in San Beda is Life, and I believe that there is no better place to learn what life is all about then inside your very own Alma Matter and that is what makes me proud to be a Bedan.
