On July 24, 2015, the Junior Organization held its first general assembly, with the theme “Wonka.”

After the registration, the juniors had fun at the photobooth. The program started with an invocation led by Bryann In. A short video presentation introduced the organization and this year’s batch of officers.

The attendees were then divided into four groups: Fun Dip, Spree, Laffy Taffy, and Runts. The first game was the food race, wherein four representatives from each team were to eat dark chocolate, boiled egg, coke, and hot ramen. The first team to finish all the food was team Runts.The second game was the sack race. Five players from each team participated in the relay, with team Runts also winning. The third game was the balloon race. Three ballons were tied to each person. The rule was that the balloons could not touch the ground, and that if the balloon would fall, the person should go back to the starting point. Team Runts emerged victorious again. In the last game, Follow the Mallows, two representatives from each team were selected. Person A was to follow and find the mallows while the other lwould ead him. Team Spree won this game.

After the games, the juniors enjoyed the chocolate fondue set up in the middle of the room. They dipped ice cream, munchkins, marshmallows, and pancakes in chocolate.

Ending the general assembly, the junior students received one more treat. Each junior was asked to get a balloon from the decorations. Upon popping the balloons, four three winners of gift checks and one winner of a Starbucks card were announced.

The Chiang Kai Shek College Language Center has several things up its sleeve this school year. For one, it welcomes Mrs. Augustina Co to its office located on the second floor of the College Campus. The new Language Center Coordinator brings with her a solid 25-year experience of language teaching and administrative work.

The Language Center – which has been offering fundamental Chinese classes as well as basic, intermediate and advanced Chinese classes to those interested to learn Mandarin and Fookien – is now offering various English classes for both English and non-English speakers. For college students and professionals, the Language Center has new courses available, such as Grammar Review (1 & 2), Public Speaking and Presentation Skills, and English for Careers (1 & 2). For non-English speakers, there are several classes to choose from: English Zero, General English (1–3), Expressing Yourself (1–3), Grammar Focus (1–3), Reading Matters (1–3), Pronunciation (1 & 2), and Basic English for Employment Communication. On top of all these course offerings, there is also Basic English for Foreign Chinese Teachers. Filipino Classes are also open to foreign students.

The Language Center aims to ensure that its students learn the language of their choice effectively and reach their learning goals. Whether the objective is to learn a language for fun or out of curiosity, to improve career opportunities, to prepare for an English language exam, or simply to learn more about Chinese, English, or Filipino culture, the CKSC Language Center welcomes learners who are at least fifteen years of age. For any inquiries, please visit the Language Center anytime from 8am to 12nn and 1pm to 4pm.

Every year, the officers of CKSC Computer Society organize an event for all IT and CS students to meet, get to know one another, and have lots of fun, especially the first year students.

This event is known as the General Assembly. It took place on July 16, 2015 (Thursday) at the 7th floor of Chiang Kai Shek College. The event kicked off with the opening speech of the ComSoc President, Glyza Go, welcoming everyone to the event. The officers were introduced, starting from the president down to the representatives of each batch. The election of the first year batch representative took place and the elected student was Jao Suarez.

The highlight of the General Assembly was the game proper where everyone was excited to participate. Students were assigned into 5 groups. Each group had 1 officer to assist and guide them. The first game was just an icebreaker. It is basically a no-point game. Knowing the name of their teammates and the other team members' name was the main objective of the icebreaker. All the succeeding games after the first were where the real game began. "Pass the message" with a twist was the second game played in the event. This game showed how each team would communicate to each other with only using their facial expressions. No one got the correct answer so the winning team was based on which team got the closest one from the right answer. The 3rd game was called the “Bottoms Up v2.0” followed by the “Chopstick Cornick” and lastly, “The Chubby Bunny” Game.

After the games, the awardees were announced-- starting from the Lanyard Design Contest winner, Maxine Velasco (3rdYear), to the winners of the games. The overall scores were tallied and the results were:

5th Place: Group 2

4th Place: Group 3

3rd Place: Group 4

2nd Place: Group 5

1st Place: Group 1

The giving of snacks plus evaluation of the whole event was next and last but not the least, the closing remarks. It was definitely a fun and fruitful event!!
