The 2018 CPU Christmas party with a retro theme was well-attended by the Faculty and Staff.

Registration began at 2 PM until 3 PM. Latecomers were not allowed to join the raffle draw. Everyone was required to observe courtesy and discipline. Participants had to fall in line while entering the University Covered Gym where the faculty and staff Christmas party was held. This year, the committee laboriously prepared with the theme “retro” in mind.

Inside, the stage and dinner tables were already set. A wide screen was set up so that the audience would be able to see all of the performances of the faculty and staff. Dinner followed after a short invocation and some singing.  Departments and offices then gave their presentations. There were 13 participants who did their best to win an award. And for this year, the College of Engineering emerged as the winner followed by the Office of the President.

Names were called to receive prizes as they were randomly picked out of the tambiolo, in between numbers in the program. Appliances and cash were given away to the winners.
