 Ateneo Student Concern Center (Project Proposal)

o Borlagdan: We will change name
o Sy – Physical forms (bulletin boards, DSWS), internet and SMS

 Option B – 13245.50
 Motion to extend time allotted was made by Ian Agatep, and
seconded by Gio Alejo. There were no objections from the Central
Board. Status: Passed.

o Agatep: Have you talked to Smart Info Board? Were planning to

make Smart a bigger network in Ateneo. There is a big culture
change from Smart to Globe. It’s good if we can use the subsidy
that ADSA gives. Combine with Sanggu hotline?
 Borlagdan: We want to get this done by the time IDs and
validated and handed out. Our target is now.
o Gumaru: Photocopy in UP instead

Motion to extend time allotted was made by Ian Agatep, and

seconded by Gio Alejo. There were no objections from the Central
Board. Status: Passed.

o Mundin: I have a concern with business card. It’s easily lost.

o Gaisano: Will this be integrated in the Sanggu website?
 Borlagdan: Yes, it’s just a form.
o Abante: Why do we still need a teaser? It’s not an event.
 Borlagdan: It’s just the name. It’s not a really a teaser, but a
smaller poster.
o Gumaru: Make sure that the 8.5x11 poster is readable.
o Sison: What will you use the load for? To reply to the concerns? Or to
reply that you’ve received the concern? Technically, the different
committees should be the ones responding to the concerns
 Borlagdan: Part of the job description of ASCC is to be the
bridge of the student to the Central Board. Aside from
receiving concerns, it will also forward them to the CB, and
update the student about the status of the concern. Also,
what if we’re asked if there are classes, etc.? We need load
to reply.
o Chua, Alwyn: You’ll include the number of offices in the business
card? So students gain access to this?
 Borlagdan: Yes, it’s available.
 Chua, Alwyn: But that defeats the purpose of the CAS if the
students can directly forward their concerns.
 Borlagdan: It’s not necessarily the concern. For example, they
can call the LS Health Services because they have a hold
order. They can go directly to them to ask.
o Chua, Alwyn: How can you filter the concerns?
 Borlagdan: It depends. Filtering isn’t really objective.
 Motion to extend time allotted was made by Ian Agatep, and
seconded by AJ Elicano. There were no objections from the Central
Board Status: Passed.

o Albiento: The problem is there are too many questions because it

hasn’t been talked about in the Central Board Proposal first, before
presenting this budget.
o Abante: I like how you’re promoting ASCC. But most of that is not
effective, like the business cards. You can promote it in other ways,
like the forms in AOB. It has to have an internal system. In that sense,
you don’t need tokens for MIS. You can use a Google Doc for the
form. Thirdly, I don’t think we need a new number since there’s the
Sanggu hotline.
 Borlagdan: For the business cards, it’s not just for ASCC, also
the offices. It’s like bringing everything you need in a business
card. It’s not just all that money for one number.
o Alejo: Moses is right. The process was by-passed. My concern is that
this is our flagship project for the year. This is for our constituents and
this is for their concerns. It’s important that we start the year with a
bang.
 Borlagdan: The posters are for the number. What is there to
promote if it’s not approved?
o Agatep: Use the existing number.
o Gumaru: Are there people texting the Sanggu hotline?
 Agatep: Yes. When there was a storm recently, around 50
texted.
 Gumaru: Use this for the meantime.
 Borlagdan: Once we start it, it should be that already. It’s
hard to change.
 Alejo: Buy one Globe SIM card. That’s P40. Use that first. We
have a Smart and Globe phone, that’s okay. If ever you
need load, just pay for it first.
 Borlagdan: The thing about the business cards, we want to
give it out by the time IDs are validated. We want this to be
approved now because it will lose sense altogether.
o Remo: If our mandate is to reach out to these people, every avenue
must be explored. I don’t see why having a personalized note
doesn’t personalize it further.
 Agatep: Let’s approve half of it.
 Alejo: Approve 2000.
o Gumaru: Next time, project proposal first before budget. We’ll take
too long with this.
 Alejo: This is a learning experience but it’s an urgent concern.
 Motion to approve the budget (poster, 20 teasers, 2000 business
cards, 1 Globe SIM card, drop boxes, photocopying [50¢], table signs)

on costs.
  Sison: Easier to cater for the batch
 Gumaru: Try a closer venue
 Roa: It’s nearer and we see the potential. Volunteers.
o C.Reyes: Which part of the country club?
 Sison: The one used for Xavier Ball. With round tables.
o Raymundo: Even though you’re loaning it? Even though you’re
doing this, and you’re practically showing a tone for the students.
o Remo: I think this is important, we cannot simply limit our projects, it’s
building the structure of the batch
o Gaisano: How can you assure that people can go, including the
transportation?

Motion to extend time allotted to 5 minutes was made by Steph

Gumaru, and seconded by Gio Alejo. There were no objections from
the Central Board Status: Passed.

o Albiento: This is reminiscent of ATF, advocacy then advocacy. This is

a SaturdayNSTP?
 Remo: Gives assurance of support from the projects.
o Gumaru: Will you earn from this?
 Profit: P25,670 300 people
o Abante: Who are the organizations concerned? Attendance may
not be as big, even though I am optimistic about the projects.
o Raymundo: Was proper consultation done on the level of the school
boards?
o Alejo: This is a budget approval session and not project approval.
Advocacy is great but the way we’re doing this we could have
done this together.
 Together in PlanSem in June - Not something for today.
 The whole concept has not been approved yet.
 PMS, frame work won’t be followed, if done well we can do
this properly.
 First CB in June/ PlansemJune 4
 Sison: Asking for sponsorships so June is too late.
 Gumaru: We have a process, bypass it, we don’t do it well.
Take into consideration.
 Alejo and Gumaru: Your project’s not dead. But your chairs
don’t even know. We’re here to help. But we have to follow
the process. June present again and talk to all of us so we
can help you.
 Roa: Launch of projects of schools.
 Motion to postpone the BCA was made by Dan Remo, and seconded
by Moses Albiento. There were no objections from the Central Board

o Remo: Volunteers included?
 Donato: Yes
o Agatep: Also include COA logo in sticker, we can use the new one.
o Gumaru: It raised awareness through the stickers.
o Roque: It was a good presentation; many applied but the
volunteers were not utilized. If you’re talking about a flagship, like
ASCC, maybe you could shift the attention to that more than the
recruitment.
o Alejo: Try to put something more informative in the sticker, like the
Sanggu hotline.
o Roque: Stickers were used because we didn’t get into the shirts.
o Raymundo: Do we have to pay if we try to get back into the shirts?
o Gumaru: It might be more expensive.
