                    [Summary] => Father Francisco Araneta has done at least two things of permanent value: he obtained a university charter for the Ateneo de Cagayan, and he obtained a university charter for the Ateneo de Manila. He was the first Filipino Rector to head both institutions.


Though his home language was Spanish, he was interested in promoting Tagalog studies. On the eve of his final vows, when he had to renounce his considerable fortune, besides substantial donations to educational and charitable institutions, he set aside a sum for the promotion of Philippine cultural studies.
