WHAT IS THE ARTS COLLEGE ASSEMBLY? The Arts College Assembly (ACA) is the highest undergraduate governing body of the College of Liberal Arts. In line with the Student Council's vision and mission, ACA aims to protect students' rights, promote students' welfare and partake in social transformation by becoming the college at the forefront of social action. Together with the Executive Committee, composed of the College Assembly President (Lorenz Pielle de Castro) and the Executive Board of the four different batches, FAST 2006, FAST 2007, FAST 2008 and the incoming FAST 2009, ACA works hand in hand with the College of Liberal Arts Professional 10 (CAP10), composed of the professional organizations of the college.
Wonder what the Arts College Assembly has been doing for you so far?
