Student/Faculty Mixer!!!


We will be having our Student/Faculty Mixer March 3rd right after our meeting. So stick around after the meeting!! Come through and mingle around with our Pilipino Faculty. Ask questions and learn something new! 
Along with Pilipino faculty, there will be other faculty to advise us on different paths to take with our specific majors.
 Last semester's was a great turnout, so be sure to make it out this semester! We will also be providing free snacks!!




$$$PENNY WARS$$$



Now that we have all been place in our Family's let's start our friendly KAPATIDS competitions!! And to starts us off we are brining Penny Wars back! What is Penny Wars? 

Well every family has a jar/tin that pretty much acts like a piggy bank. You insert coins or dollars as you please. Your Family gains points for every Penny successfully accumulate into your bank. But other Family's can easily sabotage your bank by adding dollars or silver coins into your bank. Those count as negative points that are equivalent to the value of the coin/dollar. And this goes through the whole semester (even during PCN). We will count everything in the end and see which family got the most points! So start saving up them coins everyone!!


Long story short


Penny= plus one point

Silver coin= minus value of coin/dollar in points (i.e Nickel -5, Quarter -25, Dollar -100)





~~~Broomball!!!~~~


BroomBall is coming up! Let the games begin!!!! What is BroomBall?? It's when all of us head over to an Ice Skating rink and play games on ice. WITHOUT skates! Broomball is one of the games.
