...also one of the strongest co-sponsors of Take Back the Night, a week of events coordinated by the Office of Sexual Assault, Prevention, and Response (OSAPR). During the week’s meeting for males, BMF members comprised nearly 40 percent of those present. According to Daniel Meyer, an intern at OSAPR, BMF members were instrumental in rallying over 600 men on campus to sign pledge cards against sexual violence this spring...

Yale educated and the son of a former Philippine President, Laurel and his United Nationalist Democratic Organization (UNIDO) party have 49 of the 55 opposition seats in the National Assembly. His strongest challenger for the presidential nomination will probably be Liberal Party Leader Salonga, a center-leftist with strong nationalist leanings. Salonga, however, is blind in one eye, deaf in one ear and carries 100 pieces of shrapnel in his body as the result of a political bombing in 1971. Along with those debilitating...
