ROB PAULINO ALUMNI SPOTLIGHT

DIRECTOR OF MARKETING & BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT PERSONAL FINANCE CENTER UOG ALUMNI ASSOCIATION PRESIDENT, B.A. BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION, 1996

“My business professors always kept the course instruction relevant to the times. They provided real world insight through their own experiences and allowed us to share our ideas. Most of my professors took the time to encourage me and offered valuable advice.” Paulino has given back his time, energy and resources to his alma mater as President of the UOG Alumni Association. One of the objectives of the group is to foster a spirit of loyalty and fraternity among the alumni of the University for the benefit of the institution. He started his term in May of 2010 and will hold office until the next election slated for April 2012. “I hope to set the foundation for a more unified Alumni Association by establishing an organizational structure that provides continuity, financial stability, and a long term vision in the role of the Association in conjunction with the University’s mission. It is rewarding knowing that Alumni take pride in their education from University of Guam and that we are helping to continue that momentum.”

JASON SALAS

KUAM, INTERACTIVE MEDIA MANAGER/NEWS ANCHOR BBA IN MARKETING, 1996 “I am actually proud of the fact that the University of Guam today is a completely different entity than when I was going there...some people would say when I was going there from 92-96 we only had the A&B building. I’m proud to see my alma mater having done such an impressive amount of expansion in such a relatively short amount of time. When I went to UOG I interacted with so many other people throughout the island you really get a sense of how diverse and how rich ethnically and culturally in terms of language, in terms of axiology and value systems of what Guam really is…the tapestry from across the board is just incredibly diverse and how UOG continues to build up that is something I’m really proud of.”
