Abstract

Unknown to many Filipino teachers and students in Philosophy, Far Eastern University had its own bachelor's program in Philosophy. In fact, the Department of Philosophy of the university had some teachers and students who are considered as important Filipino philosophers, such as Benito Reyes, Florentino Timbreza, Antonio Cua, Romualdo Abulad, and Alfredo Co. Using the method of oral history, this paper attempts to reconstruct the story of the program and the Department of Philosophy of Far Eastern University. The researchers interviewed Florentino Timbreza as a former student, Zenaida Santiago-Martinez as a former college administrator, Clarita Villa-Alba as a former Philosophy teacher; and Alfredo Co as another former Philosophy teacher. This paper aims to find out why the bachelor's program in Philosophy was terminated; if it is appropriate to bring the program back; and if appropriate, how it should be designed to be more stable and sustainable. This paper can also be considered as a contribution to the broader project on the development of the history of Filipino philosophy. © 2018 Christian Lemuel C. Afundar, Greg T.
