Dennis Raymond P. Maturan, MAT

Finally last March 22 in the morning, San Sebastian College-Recoletos of Manila held its Graduation Rites for the undergraduate and graduate students. I  finally received my Master of Arts Degree in Theological Studies (Master of Arts in Theology for Laypersons) after successfully defending my thesis on the Tridentine Mass. I was the only layperson in this year's batch to receive the degree and was the last person to be called after the MBA graduates received their diplomas. Kneeling infront of the Graduate Institute Dean, Dr. Vaughn S. Elwyn Buaquina, my mother Sylvia Policarpio Maturan and my sister Ma. Theresa Maturan bestowed upon me the blue hood while Dr. Buaquina placed upon my head the Masteral Cap then receiving my diploma afterwards from the College President, Rev. Fr. Anthony A. Morillo, OAR. Congratulations to my fellow Sebastinians Batch 2010!
