I was again asked several questions regarding my involvement on the press conference on the disappeared students, some details on the poem I had written dedicated to Karen Empeño that I submitted to the Philippine Collegian, and my role in preparing a statement that was eventually adopted by the University Council calling for the immediate release of Karen and Sherlyn. I was also made to clarify some details that appeared in another statement signed by the University Student Council. Note that these are the same questions raised in August of 2007 (a meeting with Dr. Clemen Aquino and Dr. Cynthia Bautista on matters regarding the renewal of my contract and in July 2008 during a meeting with the tenured faculty “majority”).
