Recruitment Week

STAT ka ba? paSOC ka na!


Last June 24-27, the UP Statistical Society had its Recruitment Week to look for potential applicants of the organization. This semester’s recruitment was tough because of the difficulty in finding a venue for the recruitment due to the reroofing of the School of Statistics building.


Against all odds, Statsoc still found its way to have good and apt venues for the recruitment. One venue is at the Math Walk where many Stat majors can be found because of their math classes. Another is at the Stat Walk, though only a few Stat majors go there, StatSoc still managed to have signed up few potential applicants. To capture the attention of the Stat majors, the Communications Committee created a banner that says “STAT ka ba? paSOC ka na!”


In line with the recruitment week, StatSocers wore different colors of shirts everyday. Tuesday is for white shirt day, Wednesday for green, Thursday for red and Friday for black.


The recruitment didn’t just end with the setting up of booths in the Math & Stat Walk. The Personnel Committee headed the room-to-room recruitment in Melchor Hall (Eng’g bldg.), School of Economics and College of Social Work and Community Development, for these are the “temporary homes” of the Statistics majors.


By the end of the Recruitment Week, Statsoc had more than 50 Stat majors who signed up.
