UE grand homecoming set
10/22/2009 Its all systems go for the Grand UE Alumni Homecoming 2009 where thousands of UE alumni and former UE faculty will rekindle friendships, reminisce with past campus-buddies, and enjoy this fun-filled “Balik-Tanaw kay Lualhati”-themed grand homecoming on Saturday, Oct. 24, at 5 p.m. at the UE Dalupan Lobby and Quadrangle. This year’s homecoming with a Hawaiian motif will acknowledge the UE alumni-jubilarians of classes 1949 (Diamond), 1954 (Emerald), 1959 (Golden), 1964 (Sapphire), 1969 (Ruby), 1974 (Coral), 1979 (Pearl) and 1984 (Silver). Homecoming souvenir items and fabulous prizes will be raffled off to add to the gaiety. “This is the first time former and current UE faculty will join the UE alumni homecoming, promising an event full of surprises,” UEAAI Homecoming Steering Committee executive chairman Lt. Col. Renato Chan said. Originally slated on Oct. 3 to culminate UE’s 63rd Foundation Anniversary, this homecoming was re-scheduled in deference to typhoon Ondoy’s victims. The homecoming organizers decided instead to assist in the UE relief operations for the Ondoy victims, targeting primarily members of the UE community, namely, students, faculty members and other personnel living in Ondoy affected areas. According to UE Marketing executive director, UE Red Warriors Men’s Basketball Team manager and UEAAI adviser Jesus Tanchanco Sr., the celebration took a backseat to give Ondoy victims the appropriate and immediate assistance they need. The UEAAI officers, led by its president, Prof. Mercy Candelaria, invite all UE former students, faculty members and fellow UE alumni to participate in this momentous event. Invitation-tickets are now available at the UE Alumni Association Inc. (UEAAI) Secretariat. To register, please call Josie or Aileen at tel. nos. 735-8562, 735-85-57, or 735-5471 locals 458, 459 and 310. For more info, log on at the UE Web site, www.ue.edu.ph.  Back to top
