Arellano University - Student Life

Student Life

The Arellano University Chiefs (formerly the Flaming Arrows) are the official athletic teams of the university and are members of the National Collegiate Athletic Association and the National Capital Region Athletic Association. There were several well-established dance troupe in the university which competes in the yearly inter-branch competition, along with the other branches of Arellano University. Fraternities and sororities had established chapters within the university, along with other well-established organizations. Several organizations recognized by the university were the Student Council and other legally established organizations.

The Student Council is the head of operations during school activities, especially activities for High School. There are also several collegiate activities headed by their respective council, and sometimes by the university administrator.

Students are also given the background and history of the university, most notably, in the Manila campus. The University Seal was prepared by artist Vicente Manansala and was inspired by the World War II-era photograph of American marines raising the flag of the United States on the summit of Mount Surabachi.

Famous quotes containing the words student and/or life:

    Adolescents have the right to be themselves. The fact that you were the belle of the ball, the captain of the lacrosse team, the president of your senior class, Phi Beta Kappa, or a political activist doesn’t mean that your teenager will be or should be the same....Likewise, the fact that you were a wallflower, uncoordinated, and a C student shouldn’t mean that you push your child to be everything you were not.
    Laurence Steinberg (20th century)

    There is a delicate balance of putting yourself last and not being a doormat and thinking of yourself first and not coming off as selfish, arrogant, or bossy. We spend the majority of our lives attempting to perfect this balance. When we are successful, we have many close, healthy relationships. When we are unsuccessful, we suffer the natural consequences of damaged and sometimes broken relationships. Children are just beginning their journey on this important life lesson.
