Why did you call yourselves as the Magnificent Seven?<\/strong><\/em><\/span><br \/>\nIn 1960, there was a very popular movied entitled &#8220;The Magnificent Seven&#8221; starring Yul Bryner, Steve McQueen, James Coburn, Charles Bronson, Robert Vaugh, Eli Wallach and Brad Dexter. I had not seen the movie but I heard it talked about a lot, especially that the stars were true giants in the acting profession. In terms of stature and reputation, we were pigmies compared to them but naming ourselves &#8220;The Magnificent Seven&#8221; was a way of aiming high and dreaming big. Based on what we had started, the UPVL Forestry Chapter, I believe our aiming and dreaming were well justified.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><em><strong>How did the original seven members meet? Did you know each other before joining together as a group?<\/strong><\/em><\/span><br \/>\nBefore the Varrons, we were very close friends, getting together lots of time. After Manny Bonita, Mat Saagundo and I became Varrons with the Aggie Chapter in 1966, we convinced Bert Arano, Vic Guyot, Billy Mangaya-ay and Abe Saguid to join with us in forming the Forestry Chapter. Because we were good friends, agreeing to do that in 1967 was an easy thing to do.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><em><strong>You are the first Grand Varron of the Forestry Chapter. Do you remember the first thing that you did when you assume the office of a GV?<\/strong><\/em><\/span><br \/>\nThe first thing we did was to discuss how to coexist with the more established and much bigger fraternity groups in the campus. To coexist and compete, we had to grow and to grow, we had to recruit and to recruit we had to make our group known as a viable organization worthwhile joining. In academics, we had a big edge with Vrod Manny Bonita as #1 in the class and yours truly as #2. I was also a managing editor of the Forestry Leaves and I regularly wrote a column &#8220;From the Barber Shop&#8221;. This further enhanced our identity. Then there was a skit contest sponsored by the SBO (Student Body Organization). I wrote and directed the skit in which Vic Guyot performed as a waiter in a restaurant serving three demanding customers who wanted to have chicken. Vic asked them &#8220;how do you want your chicken, dressed or undressed?&#8221; and then found out that he was running out of food to serve except a single egg. The three customers debated whether to divide the egg or only one of them would eat it. They agreed that only one of them would do it but they had to have a contest first: recite the best Biblical passage. The first customer said &#8220;In the beginning, there was no light and God said, let there be light and there was light.&#8221; The second customer contended: &#8220;Blessed are those who give for in the end they will receive.&#8221; Now, how to judge which passage was the best was something to be settled but then the third customer, Bert Arano, rendered the question irrelevant as he picked up the egg, peeled it and said &#8220;Enter thou into my kingdom&#8221; and ate the egg. The skit ended with the other customers chasing Bert out of the stage. The skit won first place. During the first year of our existence as a chapter, we had a big recruitment group, 21 of them all, garnering the cream of the academic crop led by Jerry Canonizado, Lino Blanche, Vicky Tamolang, Enya De Leon, Fe Bayta and others. I cannot name them all (sorry) but if you look at the batch&#8217;s list of members, you&#8217;ll see that all of them have become outstanding professionals. In 1968, we recruited the Gil Puyat scholar, Heidi Manabat, who later became Mrs. Pascual. During the year, the SBO had a speech contest. All frat groups sent their contestants. The Varrons, of course competed with Heidi as our representative. As her speech coach, I remember some of the passages of her speech. She began &#8220;Once upon a time, the Philippines was green from the seashores to far inland, with stately trees waving proud and mighty in the wind and the forest floor teeming with vegetation.&#8221; Heidi continued recounting the beauty and bounty of the Philippine forests but later bewailed how the treasure had disappeared, giving way to greed and logging irresponsibility. And she offered ways of healing the plundered paradise, concluding &#8220;If we do what we have to do as responsible citizens, the Philippines will be green.&#8221; The term &#8220;green again&#8221; was a variant of the phrase popularized by Ferdinand Marcos&#8217; &#8220;This nation will great again.&#8221; Heidi won first place. We sure had a very active start as a group.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><em><strong>How do you \u201clook\u201d at the UP Varrons now?<\/strong><\/em><\/span><br \/>\nEverywhere you look in the Philippines and in foreign lands, you&#8217;ll see Varrons holding very high and important positions. It&#8217;s no longer the Magnificent Seven, it&#8217;s the Magnificent Multitude. These Varrons men and women make us proud we are Varrons.<!--nextpage--><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><em><strong>Is there anything you would do differently in organizing a student group if you would be given the opportunity to go back to the year when the UP Varrons was being formed?<\/strong><\/em><\/span><br \/>\nOf course, we cannot go back but if we ask &#8220;was there something different we could have done?&#8221; I would say, probably not. I say this because us being good friends to begin with made it easy for us to start a new group.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><em><strong>Have you met some of the current undergraduate members?<\/strong><\/em><\/span><br \/>\nIn 2004, I visited UPLB during the alumni weekend. The Varrons asked me to speak during a Varrons meeting that was convened in the evening. After Vrod Dodie introduced me, there was a black out and everybody scrambled to light some candles. So I did my speech in candlelight. After the meeting, I went to the Tambayan and partook with the sumptuous preparations. I met there many undergrads whose name I could not all recall. After a quick night trip somewhere with Vrods Manny, Nestor, Arsie, Dodie and several others, I spent the night at the Manny Bonita Villa. It was a memorable visit.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><em><strong>You are now retired. What are your current preoccupations?<\/strong><\/em><\/span><br \/>\nOne thing about being retired is that you can ignore the sunrise and look westward to watch a beautiful sunset. But I still have a lot of hyperactivity left in me, so I keep busy. I do some financial services consulting in personal investments and insurance. Shortly, I&#8217;ll be giving up the financial services work and concentrate on running a travel agency group. My children have been pressuring me to really retire. I also stay active with different groups: the UPVL International, the Philippine Academy of Science and Engineering, The Knights of Rizal and the Society of Filipino Foresters in North America whose constitution I drafted and whose newsletter, The Philippine Mahogany I edit. At age 68 I can still dribble and shoot the basketball and I play some golf.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><em><strong>Are you still interacting with the members of the UP Varrons? How?<\/strong><\/em><\/span><br \/>\nMainly with activities with UPVL International and the Varrons e-group.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><em><strong>What is your usual reaction when you meet some of the \u201cold\u201d Varrons?<\/strong><\/em><\/span><br \/>\nProbably I am the oldest Varron and I don&#8217;t have the luxury of meeting several other old Varrons. So far, I&#8217;d met only one, Lilian Brioso Macam, one of the original Varronettes. She lives with her family in Glendale, CA, near Los Angeles. I had visited her in her home a couple of times during which we really had a ball recollecting old times. The Varrons bond is so strong.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><em><strong>When asked the question \u201cIs there any advice that you can give to the undergrad members?\u201d Joey Austria, the current president of the UP Varrons Alumni Assocation, answered: \u201cTo have a better understanding of being a Varron, all Varrons, especially the undergrads, should revisit and do a deep analysis of the Varrons Pledge and its meaning and how it can (serve) as a guide in a Varron\u2019s life.\u201d How do you interpret the Varrons Pledge? What is its meaning to you? How meaningful is the pledge to you?<\/strong><\/em><\/span><br \/>\nI met Vrod Joey in 2004 during the Tambayan. He&#8217;s a remarkable Vrod, and a great president of the UPVAA. I agree with his advice. I cannot fully recall the Pledge word for word but I remember it deals with scholarship, leadership, perseverance and service to humanity. To me, if a Varron sticks to and excels in each of these aspects as a human being, then he or she is fully equipped to be of service to self, family, country, and humanity. In scholarship, we learn and share our knowledge through leadership and apply our knowledge for the good of the many. I came from a very, very poor family in Bohol and my heart always beats warmly for those who are in need. I believe helping people is the most effective way to serve the country and my faith tells me that doing so pleases God.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><em><strong>The UP Varrons is celebrating its 45th Anniversary this August. What is your reaction to the fact that the organization has survived this long?<\/strong><\/em><\/span><br \/>\nI wish I could make it to the celebrations in August to help celebrate a terrific milestone. It&#8217;s incredibe! I am part of something that has survived this long and I am very optimistic that down the corridors of time, UPVL will be there to continue charting its destiny and continue being a significant part of history.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><em><strong>Do you have any grandchildren? How \u201ccool\u201d is it being a grandfather? Do you feel old at all?<\/strong><\/em><\/span><br \/>\nI have two grandsons: Dominic Terry and Mitchell Simon Sarigumba. The joy of being a lolo is beyond compare. My wife (Nattie, who&#8217;s an honorary Varron), our children, Edzel, Glenn and Dean, and our daughters-in-law, Valerie and Robin, make me very happy. Dominic and Mitchell make me so much happier. I&#8217;m so grateful to the Lord for such blessings. Aside from ailments, aches and pains, feeling old is an attitude and it is a blessing. Getting old is an achievement for which we are thankful. I pray to God that He grants me more days in my life so I can continue enjoying with my family and friends, especially the Varrons.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><em><strong>This interview is going to be published online, so it can be read not only by the Varrons but other people as well. Any words of wisdom that you want to impart?<\/strong><\/em><\/span><br \/>\nAccording to Bill Allen, 80% of success is showing up. An organization succeeds because members always show up. Showing up by being there physically helps but one can show up in spirit by supporting, contributing, rendering opininions, sharing ideas, and caring. Let&#8217;s all show up all the time every which way.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Terencio &#8220;Terry&#8221; Sarigumba (Magnificent Seven &#8217;67) is the first Grand Varron of the Forestry Chapter.
