YOUR LINK TO THE EXCHANGE

WHAT IS ASEC? The Ateneo Student Exchange Council (ASEC) is an or-

ganization committed in the growth of its local and inter-

national members as ambassadors of their own culture.

ASEC aims to give opportunities, both local and abroad,

that strengthen a sense of national identity, cultural aware-

ness, and intercultural dialogue. Through activi-

ties such as local trips and workshops,

ASEC engages members in Filipi-

no culture and creates avenues

for social interaction that can

promote cultural relativism.

Finally, it aims to help in

nation building by provid-

ing cultural and academicopportunities outside the

organization.

MISSION ASEC aims to provide Atene-

ans, other Filipinos and foreign

students, an avenue of under-

standing in order to deepen national identity. It

also seeks to expose them to a different envi-ronment through social interaction. By doing so,

ASEC advocates open-mindedness and open

communication, thus leading to better global un-

derstanding.

VISION

THRUST

ASEC serves to make available to Ateneans op-portunities for student exchange through social

interaction and opportunities of going abroad

in order to promote and foster national

identity, cultural awareness, and global

understanding.

In order to strengthen its identity and to ensure

sustainability, ASEC aims to achieve institution-

alization through transition, planning, execution

and evaluation.

Welcome to the Ateneo Student Exchange Council!

We are witnessing one of the greatest years of ASEC with 495 members - a record number in theorganization’s history. We have started the year with various innovations: a new logo and a newproject - Indonesia-Philippines Youth Cultural Exchange Program. For the first time, we have imple-mented the fleet system and the newsletter, to interact, communicate and serve you better. I am very excited to present to you the first issue of ‘The Ambassador’, the monthly newsletter of

ASEC. This issue will further elaborate about the organization and its plans for this school year andlikewise, introduce the executive board and officers who will serve the organization.

All the best, Hanyeo Yoo

Message from

the president



Inbound Student Exchange Department welcomes the

national exchange students with open arms and helps

m with their transition to life in Ateneo and the Philip-

s. ISE does this by communicating with the OIR or Of-

of International Relations through its sub-department

e OIR Coordination Team, so we can know the needs

xchange students before they get here (like tours, bud-

, housing, shopping, etc). Not only do we get to know

exchange students’ and their cultures, but we get to

w them how OZOM Filipinos are and what the Philip-

pines has to offer!
