All her three daughters are graduates of mass communications major in Journalism, two from Brigham Young University in Hawaii and the youngest, from the University of the Philippines-Baguio— a living testimony of her great influence. She never convinced her daughters to take same course, though. Instead, she wanted them to get different courses such as Law and Medicine but their lines of interest prevailed because of their childhood experiences in campus journalism with Mom as their coach. Yet, after sometime, Mom Lourdes now claims that her daughters have become much better than she is. Madam (Mom as well) Lourdes has certainly duplicated herself, especially with KSS eventually blossoming into the family dream school (ohana meleohane kula).
