ALUMNI SERVICES

The Fatima Medical Alumni Association, although still in its infancy, offers the following services to all its alumni and hopes to expand and improve these in the years to come.

Reunions: The FMAA, in coordination with the administration, helps organize and provides assistance in reunions and homecoming events for various classes most especially for Jubilarians. There are basically four types of Jubilarians: Silver, 25 years; Pearl, 30 years; Ruby, 40 years; Golden, 50 years and Diamond, 60 years.

Communications: The Association has already published the first edition of its official newsletter. The Fatima Courier. Through this newsletter we aim to reach as much of our alumni as we can let them know the latest happenings in their alma mater. Although published annually, we hope to be able to expand its coverage to make it a bi-annual publication.

Sports and other University Activities: In line with its goal to take active participation in the different activities of the University, the Association aims to support and participate in the various sports and academic activities of the school. Among these are the Sports fest held during the school's Foundation Day and the sponsoring of the Brain Blitz (now on its second year) during the Medicine Week.

Alumni Directory: The Alumni Affairs Office is now in the process of updating the records of all the alumni of Our Lady of Fatima University, beginning with the College of Medicine. Please register yourself by logging in to our site so that we can update your records. We hope to be able to come up with an alumni directory so that you can get in touch with fellow alumni.

Provident Services: In order to develop social awareness and consciousness among its members, the FMAA aims to extend its assistance to its needy members, who because of unfortunate circumstances are unable to avail themselves of adequate medical and /or burial services.

Contributions from the alumni are most welcome and can be sent to the Alumni Affairs Office to the attention of Dr. Fe A. Bartolome, who is the current University Alumni Coordinator.
