Reminder for next year

My dear students,

We are not going to meet tomorrow, December 11, 2010 due to University's participation as host in the State Colleges and Universities Athletic Association. So our next meeting would be next year, January 8, 2011.

From January 6-10, 2011, I will be in Bohol. So I guess we will not be meeting that day also. So our next meeting really will be on January 15, 2011.

Please take note that we are already delayed by three weeks on January 15, 2011. So please read your notes and textbooks for class discussion and be ready for activities, recitation and exams.

Please get your book on January 3, 2011 from your President, Raphael Dionisio. Mr. President, please remind me about the book.

That would be all for next year. Please check this blog during the Christmas break from time to time for additional instructions.

Enjoy your vacation. Have a merry Christmas and a happy new year to you and your family!
