Every year, the Office of the Dean for the College of Medicine awards the best and brightest in the fields of academics, leadership, sports and extra-curricular activities. Debate veterans like Yves Saint James Aquino, Adrian Paul Rabe, Chrysanthus Herrera, Aloysius Domingo and yours truly are no strangers to this distinction having been awarded this honor at least in our careers.
