Philippine Scholar Wants To Learn 'Democratic Way'
Clodoaldo Leocadio, Fulbright scholar in the Graduate school, says his prime objective in coming to the United States is "to learn the democratic way of doing things, and then impart what I have learned to the teachers in the Philippine schools."
Leocadio has been teaching in the Philippines since 1929 after receiving his elementary teacher's certificate when he was graduated from the Philippine Normal school.
Because of his training at the Baguil Reserve Officers Service school in 1937, Leocadio received the rank of lieutenant when he enlisted in 1941. He was on active duty with the Southern Bicol Area command and served as liaison officer with the liberation forces at Legaspi.
Leocadio received his bachelor of science degree in education from
the Dominican University of Santo Tomas.
He tried twice before succeeding in coming to the United States. "There is much competition for the honor of studying here," he said.
Leocadio was impressed with the equipment available at the University. He likes the informal atmosphere of the classroom.
His impression of Lawrence is that it is very clean.
He thinks Kansas is a wonderful place. He likes the climate, especially the hot sun, but is unaccustomed to the cold weather.
"One of the things I have noticed since coming here," he said, "is that every American I meet is ready to help a stranger in his difficulty. The people here are very courteous."
Leocadio, shortened sometimes to Leo by his new friends, will encounter the wonder of snow for the first time this winter.
