Brod Dario Sabularse, UPLB'65

December 8, 2009

Brod Dario Sabularse was an outstanding student during his college days. He was a progressive minded scholar whose activities during the 60's were discussing book reviews which later on became a hotbed for radical views. He flourished in the academe as well as the hot issues of the 60's. The chemistry department where he was a major student was the seat of deep student radicalism.

Being a Bicolano, he could not avoid the fact that all able bodied and ambitious Bicolano student were entering the Beta Sigma and having fun! He was wooed and talked into entering the frat but his extra curricular activities kept him from joining the frat. Finally,t he idea of being a student leader elected via campus election seemed attractive.

The UPLB Beta Sigma and Duty Above All Party (DAAP) were synonymous to campus elections. From the 50's, the brods were already establishing themselve as the premier fraternity with a political party of its own! Who else would ever think of a party to be called Duty Above All Party??? Only the Beta Sigma mind could do that! And so Brod Dario knew he would be in good hands if he ever entered the frat.

In 1965 he became a brod (perhaps during his junior year) amidst the dislikes of some of his fellow chem radicals. True enough, he was truly deserving of a Betan. A distinguished parliamentarian, he bested all oppositions (Pepsis included) during sudent's week. Later on, he became instrumental in the recruitment of several scholar brods. His enthusiasm in frat activities was very visible to the end.

We will all miss him. May his soul be at peace.

My deepest condolence to the family of brod Dario.

During my college days I had been associated with brod Dario, a very cool guy, full of wit and humor. In one of our beer socials, he told us that drinking beer is good, in fact pag na-break down ang beer ay simple sugar at nourishing ito sa katawan, hehehe. Got invited to his wedding together with the late brod Bobby de Mesa, we had a good time. He surely will be missed by all esp. those who knew him close hand.
