UG Get-Togethers
Activities | UG Get-Togethers
The UG Get-Together is sponsored by the Dr. Karen Lee Memorial Fund and provides an opportunity for faculty, staff advisors and students to mix and mingle in a relaxed environment with the objective to strengthen a culture of care in undergraduate student mentoring. These gatherings are open drop-in, allowing students to ‘take a break’ from their studies and enjoy a friendly chit chat with faculty and staff and among themselves with no set agenda.

Testimonials
Isabella YU
BBA OM & IS, Year 3
UG Get Togethers helps me make a lot of friends! I went to several special events during festivals with my friends and had good times there. The activities and games are fun and casual, and I can freely chat with the fellow students there. It is also fun to see a lot of people from different backgrounds and countries connected together through laughter and fun times. These amazing memories and experience helped me through my downtimes and will always support me.

UG Get-Togethers provided us with a wonderful opportunity to socialize. While escaping the stress and tension, we enjoyed the free food and interact with friends. One of the most memorable events to me is photo-taking booth. We could enjoy the Halloween vibe and leave good memories. Not at all, we have the golden chance to get to know more UST staff and professors. Overall, it is a very nice chance to make friends!

I make it a point not to miss any UG Get-Togethers. And it’s not just about the free food and drinks (think pizza, iced tea, and chocolates galore!), the colorful seasonal decorations, or even the photo booths with tons of whimsical paraphernalia. It’s about taking a break from stress and tension on campus. It’s about spending time with friends, professors, and classmates, and getting to know them better (especially those acquaintances we pretty much only ever meet once). UG Get-Togethers are about the thrilling opportunities to make fun social memories that stay with us past exams, past vacations, and even past graduation.
