Larawan, Lucell A.
This paper documents the works and lives of selected visual artists from Panay provinces. The selection of the artist was based on meeting at least two of the following criteria: (1) The artist should have a major award(s) in any prestigious national fine arts contests which included the MADE (Metrobank Art and Design Excellence), AAP (Art Association of the Philippines), Petron, GSIS (Government Service Insurance System), and the Biennial Dumaguete Open Terra Cotta Festival contests; (2) He/she should have had one-man or two-man exhibitions at reputed galleries; and (3) He/she should be active in the local art scene, meaning, a continuous schedule of exhibits during the past three years. Mostly self-taught, the artists’ artistic inclinations manifested early in childhood when they discovered their talents; this led to their resolve to seriously pursue with enduring fervor their art careers. Their sense of calling amid a less ideal art scene did not give way to the voice of conformity but they have maintained a clear sense of identity and destiny as inspiring art icons in their milieu. The analyses of the works of these artists lead to the observation of the Panayanon artistic tradition. Aside from the formalist descriptions of the artworks’ features, the analyses go further into the contextual and evaluative levels that reveal a highly nuanced meaning and semantic richness of the works. The paintings and sculptural pieces of the artists are expressions of their true “voices”, fresh innovations that have earned accolades even if these innovations are untamed by the academe.

Armadillo, Fely D.
This study was conducted to find the current level of satisfaction of Central Philippine University staff. All full time staff members (200) were used as respondents. The descriptive-relational research design and one-shot survey were used in this study. The researcher-made questionnaire on employees’ level of satisfaction used during school year 2005-2006 was modified and used in this survey. The findings revealed that the respondents were mostly satisfied with the different university services, their rights, privileges and functions. The findings also revealed that sex is significantly related to their level of satisfaction. The male employees have a higher satisfaction level compared to the female in terms of communication, planning and implementation of policies, remuneration and benefits, spirituality and service excellence. Civil status, religion, educational attainment and job classification were found to be significantly related to their satisfaction level in all areas except for monthly income and length of service which were not significantly related to their satisfaction level. In comparison with the study conducted in academic year 2007-2008, there are significant differences in their level of satisfaction in the areas of university services such as communication, training and development, roles and functions and supervisory considerations. The levels of satisfaction in these areas increased during academic year 2011-2012 except in the area of planning and implementation of policies where a significant decrease in their level of satisfaction was found.

Pescos, Roldan P.
Central Philippine University-Employees Mutual Health Assistance Plan (CPU-EMHAP) is a health maintenance organization established by Central Philippine University-Faculty Association (CPU-FA). It is a special project to deliver health care service facilities exclusively for the CPU employees and their families. It started its operation on July 21, 1993 with 197 enrollees.
CPU-EMHAP was created in response to the high cost of health care insurance and unsatisfactory services by previous health care companies. It was designed to meet the following objectives: low cost contribution, prompt delivery of service facilities, improve health care benefits, and additional earnings for CPU-FA.
During the first two years of its operation, CPU-EMHAP earned net incomes of 41.95% and 63.18% respectively of its gross revenues. However, the net incomes went down tremendously on its third year and fourth year with 4.14% and 5.26% respectively of its gross revenues. The situation worsened during its fifth year of operation when it suffered a net loss of 21.23%. This predicament was primarily caused by poor accounting system, meager compensation of personnel and laxity in policy implementation. Further, it was realized that the outbreak of dengue epidemic, inflation and the fact that CPU- EMHAP has no legal personality as an organization have aggravated the situation.
The mere preparation of this seminar paper has already proven its usefulness to CPU-EMHAP. When the study started last fiscal year 1998-99, some problems were identified and immediate remedies were applied. As a result, CPU-EMHAP has regained its financial strength by earning a net income of 23.70% on its gross revenue on that same fiscal year.
At present, CPU-EMHAP is the leading group health care provider in CPU and is expected to expand its market through the aid of this study which is designed to improve its operation by strengthening its financial condition and its strategies in services, leadership and performance, as well as, to consider the possibility of transforming it into a service cooperative in order to have a legal personality and enjoy other benefits.
This study entails specific strategy where the organization’s objective in improving service facilities and performance will be attained for the satisfaction of its members. It implies and makes use of its available resources to explore its differential market advantages over its competitors and to ensure a privileged and assured customer acceptance in serving its domain.
The study has outlined its strategic thrust, thoroughly planned its implementation for the attainment of its specific targets which will ultimately extract an improved financial performance and services.
This study also provides a five-year Action Plan for implementation on the basis of the compiled survey outputs and the objectives of CPU-EMHAP to meet the member satisfaction and the attainment of its targets.
