Pride or Fried chicken?

Thinking about fast foods? Nah, we know you’re smart. You must have seen one of their posters with PUPoy, our Sintang Paaralan’s Centennial Mascot smiling wide and crazy. But what exactly is he smiling about? Well, PUPoy has every reason to rejoice. Finally, we’re seeing action for the PUPian Pride!

The PUP Young Leaders Forum
The PUP Young Leaders Forum (PUP YLF) is the brain child of the Ayala Young Leaders of
PUP, who initiated the program as part of their “continuing advocacy in the name of servant leadership.” The Forum aims to awaken the sense of true, dynamic, and responsible student leadership, establish lasting network of PUP student leaders, form corroborative decision-making and critical analyses of concerns via resolution and charter building, bring forth PUP student leaders and major players and experts into a proper forum of discussion and interaction and perform ways to fulfill the commitment in the signed charter to contribute in the development of each participant in the forum.

PUPoy in You
PUPoy in You?, the first of the three fora, was held at the College of Communication Audio-Visual Room last 28th of November 2007. It was hosted by students from the College of Communication.

To help the 24 participants present at the Forum, the PUP YLF had invited three resource speakers. Bro. Eng Si from the Kerygma Family, Mr. Ringo ‘Mr. Universe’ Borlain and MS. Kym Oliveros,a freshman from the College of Accountancy, who started a forum on Bob Ong’s Bobong Pinoy E-group, ‘Dapat bang ikahiya kung galling ka sa public school? [Read More]
