PAC is still taking in applications to be an Ate/Kuya/Ading until Monday 2/21/11!! Hurry you wouldn't want to miss out!!

 

What is the Ate/Kuya program? Well directly translate Ate/Kuya means "Older Sister/Brother" and Ading means "Younger Sibling".

So the program is kind of a mentor program. Kind of like an older brother/sister to help guide you! 

We try our best to match you up with someone you are sure to get along with, that's why we ask you to fill out an application =D!

 

Attached to this email are both applications! So fill one out and turn it in to our membership chair Chadell Bumagat or try contacting any CAB member!

Again, applications are due this Monday 2/21/11!!! 

Revealing for Ate/Kuya/Adings will be this Thursday 2/24/11 2 the PAC meeting!! So be there!

 

*To be an Ate/Kuya you must have 2 active semesters already in PAC*
