The Mu Sigma Phi, or MΣΦ is the first fraternity in the University of the Philippines College of Medicine. It is also the first medical fraternity in the Asian region. Its birth in October 1933 was the answer to the need of a college organization that will uphold true brotherhood, responsible leadership, advancement of scholastic and cultural welfare, and an unselfish spirit of service. After more than 78 years, the fraternity stands today as among the most acclaimed student organizations in the Philippines, and the leading Greek-lettered global network of UP Medical Alumni. The fraternity was first mentioned in the Philippine Collegian in its November 24, 1933 article as the "first and only medical students' fraternity." The Mu Sigma Phi does not confer honorary memberships; nevertheless, it has ardently drawn a boastful number of 1,682 members in its glorious roster that has produced pioneers, heroes, leaders, scholars, luminaries, scientists, and humanitarians in the field of medicine. It sustains this unparalleled tradition by instilling to its student members a relentless fervor for excellence in medical education, strengthened by a noble commitment to public service. The fraternity is renowned for its rich tradition revolving around the Four Pillars—''Brotherhood, Leadership, Scholarship, and Service.'' These pillars are points of fact to every MU Brod, and serve as guiding principles in our individual and collective efforts to continually fulfill the fraternity’s destiny of greater glory. It is in our eternal bond that we find greatness in our unrivaled unity. It is in our holistic endeavors that we hone and preserve a distinguished lineage of MU leaders and visionaries. And, despite our frequent expeditions away from academics, it is in our utmost perseverance and collaboration that we can attain our goal of becoming complete doctors. == History == One fine October afternoon, in 1933, a group of students of the UP College of Medicine headed by Saturnino Ador-Dionisio '35, Manuel G. Baliwag '35, Manuel M. Ramos '35 and Antonio T. Unchuan '35; all distinguished and the cream of their respective classes; organized and established the MU SIGMA PHI, the first fraternity in the University of the Philippines College of Medicine. Dr. Fernando Calderon, the first Filipino Dean of the UP College of Medicine and the first Filipino Director of the Philippine General Hospital, became the fraternity's first Faculty Adviser. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mu Sigma Phi (medical fraternity)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
