Ateneo Law homecoming raises funds for scholars

MANILA, Philippines — The Ateneo de Manila Law School Class of 1998 hosts a landmark homecoming “True Blue in ’22” on Friday, Nov. 25, at the Centennial Hall of the Manila Hotel.

In keeping with the Ignatian teaching of being “men and women for others,” proceeds from this milestone event will support the scholarship program of the Ateneo Law Alumni Association.

At 86, Ateneo Law is considered by many as the Philippines’ leading law school and one of Asia’s best and most venerable. The ’98 class is justifiably proud of its astounding imprint on the profession, on society and in the life of the nation.

Ateneo Law 1998 produced four Bar topnotchers, a governor, mayor and congressman; commissioners; regional trial court judges; legal luminaries and influencers; executives; authors; media personalities; professors and partners of prestigious law firms here and abroad.

The Nov. 25  grand reunion will honor the classes of 1962, 1972, 1982 and 1997, whose notable alumni include retired Supreme Court associate justice Adolfo Azcuna and the late Fr. Joaquin Bernas, an eminent constitutionalist and dean emeritus of the Ateneo de Manila University.

To celebrate this first in-person reunion after two years of virtual events, Ateneans will enjoy a raffle, alumni performances and music from Side A.
