Case for a University Medical Center: Training and Research Hospital; and a Satellite School Campus - 2

Feb 8, 2022






John 8:32 καὶ γνώσεσθε τὴν ἀλήθειαν, καὶ ἡ ἀλήθεια ἐλευθερώσει ὑμᾶς


Why would you adopt a “growth model” that recommends the reduction of campus space from 165 hectares down  to 68 or 38.5 hectares in order to accommodate up to 10,000 students max? 
Rationales 1) It will enable the university to dispose of unutilized farmlands by selling portions of the same; and 2) Use the money received to start the construction of a research and training hospital for its medical school; and the same time purchase another piece of property, of around 100 hectares, at Clark Green City in Tarlac.


Premise # 1:  the Technical Committee on Medical Education

 of the Commission on Higher Education (CHED-TCME) has given the University only 10 years to establish a training hospital...



Premise # 2: GC advises us to open extension campus



Perceived need: raise half a billion [Php500mil] to finance hospital

Premise # 3


































Premise # 1 ... the major problem is that the Manila Adventist Medical Center (MAMC) was not acceptable as the base hospital for the COM.... 
Premise # 2 - The exit report of the Technical Committee, however, was very specific:  "The base hospital should be accessible within the medical school."
