| To acquaint people on
intellectual property and their role on protecting intellectual property
rights, the MMSU-ASRC showcased the paper show on “Intellectual Property and You” for the
months of January to March 2008 at the University Main Library Lobby.
Consisting of 16 panels, the paper show
emphasized that “Just like the owners of physical property—cars, stores,
houses—intellectually or artificially gifted people have the right to own their
creations and protect them from those who would try to steal them. IP involves creations of the human mind. It can
take the form of artistic works: songs, movies, comic book illustrations,
buildings. But IP also includes scientific and technological innovations:
compact discs (CDs), artificial hearts, bicycles, a new variety of rice.”
