of Architecture, it gives assistance to underprivileged communities by having
immersions, house builds, talks, cleanups, tree-planting events, and workshop
seminars on housing solutions and other practical skills.

ACLE CONCEPT PAPER
HEROES: BEYOND THE BORDERS OF PROFESSION
On the 31st day of March this year, the University of the Philippine Task Force will hold
its Alternative Classroom Learning Experience (ACLE) which echoes the strong
foothold of the organization: service. Service that is not to be confined within the
borders of a field of expertise as a study and practice, but to be taken in its widest
sense - service that encompasses all fields with the common ideal of bettering the
world.
Heroes: Beyond the Borders of Profession will feature speakers who use their line of
profession not for the sole dedication for money and glory. These people include
journalists that fight for truth, architects that fight for heritage, artists who fight for the
oceans and seas, writers who fight for the environment – the opportune event invites
people who have created from the fragments and elements of the human spirit and
compassion, leaps and achievements never seen before.
The idea and the goal of the whole event is to not only recognize the speakers and
allude them the title heroes, but more importantly to recognize their advocacies and
work. The event, aside from showing these lifelong advocacies and work to the
audience, will be a pinnacle to enable the speakers to be listened to by young men
and women aspiring for their respective fields who have or may have not yet
decided to do the same line of work, a lifestyle of both agony and hardship.
As students of the University of the Philippines, we are mandated to serve. Although it
is given, because of the present status quo of students acquiring knowledge from the
premier university in the country for personal gain, it is a sad truth that what is
expected of an “Iskolar ng Bayan” has become illusory, no longer an expected
reality, but an eluded ideal. We hope that events like these may remind the most
brilliant of all minds the responsibility of giving back.
This event will show service in its many forms, that it is not only the stereotyped way of
serving the less fortunate by temporary programs with lacking projections for
sustenance. It will show service that is toiled with hard work, not given in numbered
big heaps but constantly like one’s lifetime; service that is not a one-time thing, but
one that plans and projects; service that ensures the Filipino people will not just
endure but prevail – prevail and attain truth, express and experience their culture
through the built environment, and live in a world their children can inherit.
Service may just be the by-product of pursuing art or science or any field of interest
but in its deepest sense, it is profoundly an art that society can never live without, and
what the young UP scholar should produce. The University of the Philippines Task Force
Arki, in this alternative classroom experience, will build another environment that
builds people, an environment which inspires the Iskolar ng Bayan, to give the service
the Filipino nation deserves.
