Rain or shine the contest must be done!

    Even if a super typhoon cools the whole week, the contest was still hot and fiery as it went and got done fighting all the hindrances. The typhoon doesn’t stop the students to show what they’ve got. Moreover, faculty and admin staffs of different colleges prove that they are also aware of great impact of English proficiency. There are several categories included for the English Camp week; the English Grammar/Structure Test, Spelling Bee and Lyceans Lord and Lady English (test of confidence and ability to speech and in English).

It begins with LPU prayer followed by our National Anthem and Lyceum Hymn. We’ve hear the inspiring words from two of respective professionals of our University, Dr. Esmenia R. Javier and Prof. Chona D. Andal. After those inspiring words from the two respective people the host introduces the judges and the contest starts with the Spelling Bee category participated by those Lyceum students with English subjects. Each college represented by two of their students. It’s funny to know that even our respectable professors can join in this kind of competition. Our College of Business Administration was represented by our students and faculty from different courses.

       Competitions are competition. There are winners and there are losers. Like Jochelle Untalan and Anna Margarita Agulo who represents the BSBCM. Although they did not win in the contest, they are still winners for our org because they are able to prove that we can also show how good we are in English. Moreover, Virome Dimasacat (Lord of English 2011) and Arvin Caguitla (winner in structure test) proudly presents the CBA as champions for any contest. .

     This English Camp 2011  is a success not only for the College of Education, Arts and Sciences but a success for every Lyceans for a well developed communication and confidence using English Language.
