In this inspiring episode of Friar’s Desk, we sit down with three dynamic leaders shaping the future of Thomasian education: Assoc. Prof. Mary Erika N. Bolaños, LPT, PhD (Principal, UST Senior High School), Assoc. Prof. Marishirl P. Tropicales, PhD (Principal, UST Junior High School), and Assoc. Prof. Marielyn C. Quintana, LPT, PhD (Principal, UST Education High School). Together, they reflect on the mission of Catholic education, the pursuit of academic excellence, and how UST’s values continue to form not just scholars, but compassionate and faith-rooted individuals. It’s a rich conversation on leadership, formation, and what it means to educate with both head and heart.
