University of the Immaculate Conception is hosting this time for some events. These are the Cheerdance Competition, Championship Events for Outdoor Games and Indoor Games, and also to culminate the celebration is the ITE NYT’06 which showcase Modern Dance Competition, Acoustic Challenge, the MTV Spoof and the Awarding Ceremenony.
There will be 18+ participating schools this year coming from the different parts of Region XI. This year’s PSITS celebration is quite incomplete since there will be no Regional Quiz Bowl and Computer Programming Competition. This competition showcase the brightest and smartest ITE students in the region. All participating schools will send their best set of students to compete and you cannot predict this year of who will be the winners.
Last year’s competitions were dominated by big universities in the region. University of Mindanao had won the overall crown as the PSITS 2005 Champion, followed closely by Ateneo de Davao University and University of the Immaculate Conception landed at 3rd place. To be specific, in the quiz bowl, San Pedro College and University of the Immaculate Conception had a head-to-head fight in the final round. But San Pedro College won by a margin of 1 point only that puts UIC in the 2nd place and AdDU in the 3rd place. Computer Programming Competition is one of the highlights of PSITS last year held at the AdDU Jacinto Campus. The University of the Philippines proved that they were the team to beat with 5 problems solved, followed closely with AdDU and UIC with both 4 problems solved, just had a difference in time spent in solving the problems.
All in all, last year’s PSITS celebration was successful and we’ll wait for this year, if it will surpasses last year’s impact without IT olympiad.
TROPICAL STORM “REMING” (international code name: Durian) yesterday became a “supertyphoon” as it approached the eastern part of Luzon with winds stronger than those of Typhoon “Milenyo,” which slammed into Metro Manila and Luzon in late September.
