COLUMBAN COLLEGE<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>next</strong> <strong>batch</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>school</strong> <strong>scout<strong>in</strong>g</strong> <strong>was</strong> <strong>in</strong> <strong>Columban</strong> <strong>College</strong> <strong>in</strong> Olangapo<br />

City with Ms. Karren Cabanban and Mr. Anderson<br />

the ocular <strong>in</strong>spection <strong>in</strong><br />

<strong>Columban</strong> <strong>College</strong> (Barreto<br />

Branch) only the<br />

Gymnasium where they<br />

can hold their activities. Eng<strong>in</strong>eer<strong>in</strong>g build<strong>in</strong>g is the largest<br />

build<strong>in</strong>g among other college departments. Electrical<br />

students here do not have their own laboratory where<br />

they can practice their course.<br />

After the <strong>in</strong>spection, we went to<br />

<strong>Columban</strong> <strong>College</strong>, Olangapo City (ma<strong>in</strong><br />

branch) which is a 20-m<strong>in</strong>ute ride from<br />

Barreto Branch to meet the other officers. We<br />

stated the purpose of this activity and<br />

announced the upcom<strong>in</strong>g activities of<br />

Region Two especially the Regional Student<br />

Convention. We<br />

had a serious talk<br />

about some matter<br />

regard<strong>in</strong>g affiliation,<br />

rais<strong>in</strong>g budget,<br />

current state of their membership and so on. Mr. Alben<br />

raised some question about the RSCon because they<br />

had not jo<strong>in</strong>ed any event <strong>in</strong> the region <strong>in</strong> the previous<br />

years. We had also checked the place and s<strong>in</strong>ce this<br />

<strong>was</strong> the ma<strong>in</strong> branch their facilities and equipments are<br />

located here.<br />

Be<strong>for</strong>e adjourn<strong>in</strong>g the meet<strong>in</strong>g, they<br />

promised that they will jo<strong>in</strong> the <strong>for</strong>thcom<strong>in</strong>g<br />

region two.<br />

Based on some <strong>in</strong>dication <strong>Columban</strong><br />

<strong>College</strong> is not yet ready to hold RSCON.


BATAAN PENINSULA STATE<br />

UNIVERSITY<br />

BPSU <strong>was</strong> one of the largest members <strong>in</strong> R2. <strong>The</strong>y<br />

had their EE Sportsfest when we had the <strong>scout<strong>in</strong>g</strong> and<br />

almost all of the EE students were present <strong>in</strong> this affair. Mr.<br />

Christopher Malonzo, the IIEE Student Chapter President of<br />

BPSU, gave us a warm welcome despite of his busy<br />

schedule. <strong>The</strong>y gave us the time to tell the purpose of<br />

<strong>school</strong> <strong>scout<strong>in</strong>g</strong> together with their officers and other<br />

members.<br />

First, we<br />

expressed our<br />

gratitude <strong>for</strong> their<br />

participation <strong>in</strong> the recent Basketball<br />

Tournament and Sem<strong>in</strong>ar <strong>in</strong> Tarlac City. <strong>The</strong>y<br />

were also thankful because accord<strong>in</strong>g to<br />

them, they learned more <strong>in</strong> the sem<strong>in</strong>ar and enjoyed it as<br />

well. Dur<strong>in</strong>g the meet<strong>in</strong>g, questions were raised regard<strong>in</strong>g<br />

membership <strong>for</strong>ms and benefits of IIEE. <strong>The</strong>y promised to be<br />

active and open to help <strong>in</strong> the development of region two<br />

accompanied with right dissem<strong>in</strong>ation of <strong>in</strong><strong>for</strong>mation.<br />

After the meet<strong>in</strong>g,<br />

Mr. Malonzo assisted us <strong>in</strong><br />

the whole vic<strong>in</strong>ity of the<br />

<strong>school</strong>. <strong>The</strong>y had their EE laboratory, m<strong>in</strong>i<br />

theater where they can hold sem<strong>in</strong>ars, one<br />

computer room, and a library. <strong>The</strong><br />

Eng<strong>in</strong>eer<strong>in</strong>g<br />

Build<strong>in</strong>g is<br />

isolated from<br />

other build<strong>in</strong>gs.<br />

BPSU had a<br />

quite large area but s<strong>in</strong>ce they had many<br />

students it looks populated.<br />

We left BPSU with the hope of achiev<strong>in</strong>g our<br />

objectives <strong>for</strong> the betterment of the region.
