Filipinos commemorate their American history

On Oct. 18, the Seattle University Filipino Alumni Chapter came together for its second annual fall reunion in celebration of Filipino American history month. All SU alumni of Filipino descent were invited back to campus to attend a special mass featuring SU alumnus Deacon Fred Cordova, class of ’52, who gave a special homily on the history of Filipino Americans at Seattle University and in Seattle. The mass was followed by a reunion reception where more than 60 people attended the event.

The Seattle University Filipino Alumni Chapter serves as a communication link between Filipino alumni of Seattle University, current Filipino students, and the faculty and staff of the university.
