Summary, Etc.
  • Summary, etc - "Dr. Valdes's book, Educating Women Leaders, focuses on three women's colleges--Assumption College, Miriam (formerly Maryknoll) College, and St. Scholastica's College--possibly the last remaining all-women colleges in the Philippines. Despite the different cultural traditions of their founders (French, American and German respectively), these three shared a common tradition of academic excellence, faith and spirituality, and social responsibility. And today, the three have explicitly chosen to remain as women's colleges... These three 21st century women's colleges have made a proactive and aggressive assertion of their chosen niche, each proudly declaring to the world and their publics--we are a women's college. More power to them!" - Patricia B. Licuanan, PhD
