I am pleased to introduce Fr Guillrey Anthony Andal of the Society of Jesus. As the president of the university, Fr Ernald remains committed to fostering a culture of inclusive communication and a community focused on just leadership and Ignatian discernment.

Lovingly called “Ernald” by family, friends and the AdZU community, Fr Ernald is dedicated to continuing the Jesuit mission of providing quality education guided by Filipino, Catholic, and Jesuit values. He has a Doctor of Educational Leadership for Social Justice degree from Loyola Marymount University, Los Angeles, California, USA, and his dissertation was titled, “Leading from the Margins: The Educational Leadership Experiences of Jesuit Directors of Mission Schools in the Philippines and the Implications for the Leadership Formation of Filipino Jesuits.”
