week to update sponsors and other concerns. A list of sponsors is to be separated for the info
digest. Ms Alolor also included some entities/establishments in the list of prospect sponsors. Mr
Laborte reminded Ms Young that the prospect sponsors must not be limited only to business-
centered units/establishments but also include some government-related or non-business units to
cater to sponsorships related to the latters nature (e.g. DOST to sponsor Research Grant Initiative
of DACA).

office for the borrowing of TV sets to entertain the students while waiting for their SLMIS to be
reactivated. Also, the department will be implementing a new system for the Registrars Waiting
Area. The enrolment volunteers and OrSem Volunteers are given a benefit of having a fast lane

the need of volunteers for the Talent Expo. It was also agreed that the officers in charge of the

Mr Laborted informed the body that the upcoming Intramurals will be having a new face. He
shared to the body that as a Jesuit Institution who exemplifies holistic approach in forming its
students, the CSG should gear to activities that will support in creating events that will result to a
holistic output. The university traditional event, Intramurals, had always been known to many as

Faculty/University Office coordination with the student-led committees and a (4) centralized
local representation in the different committees involved in the actualization of the Intramurals.
Mr Laborte then enumerated the working committees of the upcoming Intramurals, namely;
Steering Committee, Secretariat Committee, Budget and Finance Committee, Corporate Relations
Committee, Sports Committee, Arts Committee (Sing & Dance), Literary and Academics
Committee, Special Events Committee, Tabulation and Awards Committee, Grievance
Committee, Documentation Committee, Marketing and Promotions Committee, Security and
Order Committee, Food and Volunteer Support Committee, Health Service Committee and
Evaluation Committee. With the enumeration is the assigned student to lead the committee and
the equivalent university office coordinator of the committee. Yet, Mr Laborte reminded the body
that this system is a proposal and to be relayed yet to the university offices involved in the
intramurals for further comments and discussions.
