MANILA, Philippines — The counsel of the Ateneo de Manila University (ADMU) on Thursday told the Department of Labor and Employment (Dole) that resigned Ateneo men’s basketball team head coach Thomas Anthony “Tab” Baldwin was not an employee of the university, but a consultant.

The university’s counsel made this statement during the continuation of the agency’s clarificatory hearing on the employment status of Baldwin. ADMU president Fr. Roberto Yap was requested to appear before the hearing but he sent representatives instead due to his commitment to Senate hearings on the same day while Baldwin did not physically attend.
