The Project:
Event materials for the AMA University investiture ceremonies developed in 2001.
Design Notes:
After several years as a computer college, AMA made it into the big leagues when it received accreditation as a full-fledged university in late 2001, which they celebrated at whiz-bang investiture ceremonies at the plenary hall of the Philippine International Convention Center.

Wrote the copy and scripting for this one. I remember John Lesaca performing and even asking then Educ. Sec. Raul Roco the favor of including his daughter (a young teacher) a slot in the waves of Filipino teachers being sent to the US back then.
