SC Co-hosts Inter-School Tilt for Bands

Tugani UP Cebu Publication Date: [January 2007 Issue]

Blue plastic material encircled the perimeters of the UP Cebu College soccer field in time for the Nar-sing Interschool Band Showdown last January 6.

The plastic material was placed to prevent possible onlookers from free riding in watching the event.

The slight rainshwoer did not stop the Cebu Normal University (CNU) Nightingale Student Council and he UP Cebu Student Council from pushing through the event.

Although UP has no nursing course, SC Chairman Karlo Mongaya said that their decision to team up with CNU to hold an interschool Nursing event was “a good venue to develop unity among the students of Cebu City, whether Nursing students or not.”

In addition, Mongaya explained that it was partly an income generating project of the Student Council to finance their activities.

The band showdown started at about 6:00 pm and ended at about 1 am.

Among the guest bands who entertained the crowd in the concert were famed Bisrock performers such as Aggressive Audio, Phylum, Mantequilla and Indephums.

When asked if the concert was a success, Mongaya replied, “the UPVCC-SC considers the activity a success because we were able to reach out to other students.” By Jill Marie Duero
