The Ladder of Success - The steps of getting to college and having fun simultaneously isn't easy, but C.S.F. showed that they climbed The Ladder of Success College it's important to make the grade it one wanted to go to a four-year institution to survive in the working world. And, if one held an Honors Society Lifebearer Seal fa stamp on one's diploma designating that one was in an honors club for at least two years in high school, therefore mak- ing one a lifetime memberl, it would raise the chances of being accepted, as well as qualifying for special scholar- ships.

For the first time in the clubs history, C.S.F. took first prize. But the members, as well as outside help took at least 30 hours in preparation and design of their entry. So many people put so much effort into it, even those that weren't even in the club. lt was very com- mendable, a job well done. stated C.S.F. President jason Lloren. Other plans for the club in- cluded fund raising, tutoring sessions, and possible visita- tions to other schools. lt just goes to show that be- ing in an Honors club such as C.S.F. doesn't mean that not only does one keeps up his grades, but school spirit as well. - Dina Duran returning from a Fil-Am meeting.

With a mild dose of bad luck, Fil-Am Members attempt to . . . Aim for the Top! During the 1987-1988 school year, the Filipino American Club had reached its goal: to accumulate a con- sistent amount of members at every meetin . For the past three years, Fi-Am had been struck with a mild dose of bad luck through poor membership attendance. Although there were very lit- tle members, the club came through by increasing their account by five hundred dollars. Fil-Am offered a scholar- ship to qualified college- bound students. This was one of the club's major goals, which was to widen its racial mixture of members. So, Fil- Am was not a club just for Filipinos, but a club for all students, and that was and is its ultimate goal. - Edelweiss Pentecostes and Imelda Pagobo Row 1: Mark Dolor, Louie Martirez, Imelda Pagobo, Faye Masangcay, and Carlos Lagarejos.
