2018 Homecoming: A Lot More Fun and Fellowship
Mark the date: November 17, 2018 (Saturday) at 6PM. Over 400 UP Engineers are expected to join the annual homecoming which promises more time for fellowship and re-connecting.
VP Internal and Homecoming Organizing Committee Chairman Caccus Berba stated that aside from the traditional segments such as Alumni Awards, election and oath-taking of new trustees, and recognition of Jubilarians (15, 25, 40, and 50 years), the get-together promises a lot more fun and fellowship than previous homecomings, with live performances, a raffle, band music and dancing.
The P1,000 Registration Fee covers dinner, a raffle, a copy of Ingenium (the UP Alumni Engineers Yearbook), and overflowing beer.
The Barkada Bundle
To encourage renewing old friendships, the Homecoming Committee is introducing the Barkada Bundle — a 9+1 scheme. For the price of only P9,000, alumni may sit together in a specially reserved choice table for 10. To avail of this special package, payment must be deposited on or before November 14th to:
BDO Account Number: 3570 0358 29
Account Name: UPAEA. INC.
The deposit slip should then be emailed to secretariat@upae.org along with the list of alumni covered by the payment.
Jubilarians to be recognized
Homecomings are made extra special as we recognize UP Engineers that reach landmark years as alumni. The Jubliarian years for this homecoming include:
2003 (Bronze, 15 years)
1993 (Silver, 25 years)
1978 (Ruby, 40 years)
1968 (Gold, 50 years) and
1958 (Diamond, 60 years).
“Homecoming is always something to look forward to as there are many reasons to join,” says Berba. “For this year, we want fellowship to be solid.”
