The following updates by Lilian Brioso-Macam<\/span> and Cion Karganilla-Raymundo<\/span>, both Original Varronettes \u201863, are included in the 50th Anniversary souvenir program<\/a>.<\/h3>\n
\n

It was a hot day to reckon with. Humidity was usually unbearable but the young aggie and forestry students kept themselves cool (with beer, soda, and water) while discussing why and how they could create an organization that could help members and other students, and be recognized by what is now known as the Office of Student Affairs (OSA). The group called themselves STAGS and agreed to move forward. A few days later, on August 26, 1962, these young male students, who were scholars, student assistants, and\/or student leaders, elected a set of officers and decided to change the name to UP Varrons Ltd (UPVL). A few months after, a group of female students formed a sister organization, the Varonettes, that later joined the UPVL. While busy with academics, the Varrons continued their \u201cunderground\u201d classes as math tutors of other students and relentlessly worked on the OSA recognition which they obtained sometime later. Vrod Arman said, it was just \u201canother phase of the life of the organization and it marks the point of no-turning-back\u201d for the Varrons.<\/p>\n

\"Some<\/a>

Some of the Charter Members receiving medals of recognition from Teddy Villanueva (UPVAA president, left) and Abe Mandac (VFI president, 2nd from left) during the golden anniversary celebration. From right: Manny, Jose, Pek, Nelson, Rey, Eric Yayen on behalf of Cecilio, Buena Angeles and daughter Aisa on behalf of Armand, Cion, and Elvie.<\/p><\/div>\n

With 50 years gone by, wouldn\u2019t anyone wonder as to what happened to the original group? Motivations were high among the Varrons to succeed in their pursuits in life. Where could they be at this time? One can bet that the majority are retired, consultants, or \u201cbabysitters\u201d of lovely apos. How about achievements? The UPVL members\u2019 accomplishments are so numerous that it will require a whole book by itself \u2013 therefore, we are not including them here (please explore other posts\/pages of TUDLA for more information).<\/p>\n

This is our latest update. Isn\u2019t it amazing that after all these years, we have managed to maintain our ties and remain one, if not physically, then in spirit? That, we believe, is an enduring quality of our organization. Will we be around for the Diamond Celebration? Regardless, the succeeding UPVL members have received the torch, which hopefully equipped and inspired them to go forward as honorable Varrons, wherever they may be. Vrods and sisses, remembers . . . New stars are being born . . . there is more to shoot for . . . live on Varrons! Ad astra per aspera!
