FREQUENTLY
ASKED QUESTIONS
Nakuuuuu! As if naman may
magtatanong pa diyan! Pero bago pa man may na sumulpot at mamilosopong
"Eh ako, marami akong tanong tungkol sa website," heto na po ang mga sagot
sa tanong.
1. WHAT IS ACMG?
Here is the answer from
an old freshman survival kit...
"We don't require THAT MUCH
FOR each member"? Sinungaling na, wrong grammar pa. Hehehehe. Di bale.
2. WHY "BINTANA"?
Bintana is tagalog for WINDOW.
(ACMG's old logo used to be one of a candle on a stained glass window,
hence the significance.) I'm not too sure what the logo is today. Anyway...
Bintana was also the name
of the ACMG newsletter circa 1991 or 92. It had a lifespan of about 2 issues
if I am not mistaken. Hopefully this website takes off where the newsletter
never did.
3. WHATEVER HAPPENED TO THE FIRST ACMG
WEBSITE?
After a rather short lifespan
of a few months in 1998, then-webmistress Anne Mendoza had to take care
of other things. The original website has lain dormant and untouched since
then.
4. SO WHY'S IT ALIVE AGAIN?
There has always been a
need for communication and connection between alumni. The need was just
ignored for a while. After a chance
encounter between six ACMG alumni last November 20, 1999, the need
for a website and for a mailing list was once more vocalized.
5. AND WHY ARE THERE ALL THESE TRIPOD POP-UPS?
Bintana is hosted on a free
server called Tripod.com. If you don't like the pop-ups, minimize them
from the start (or put them in the background). Sorry, I happen to like
Tripod, and the fact that we get our own cool domain name like bintana.tripod.com.
6. CAN I ENJOY THIS WEBSITE EVEN IF I'M
NOT FROM ACMG?
Of course you can. But it
might be pointless to look at the Alumni Photo Album though. |
