Instructions for the Heritage Tour and Documentation

Assembly is at the back of the USC Main Campus Gymnasium, Sanciangko Gate from 6:30 AM – 7:00 AM SHARP.

Make sure that you have settled any calls of nature whatsoever before departure. If you have to buy food at Jollibee, make sure you’re done buying by 6:45.

Late comers will be REALLY left behind. They may proceed to the South Bus Terminal and catch up.

EVERYONE must vacate the tour buses at every stop. For the first fifteen minutes, I will check the buses every once in a while to see if there are people idling inside. You can come back when you’re done with what you’re supposed to be doing.

Always stay with your group. Group members are responsible for checking on each other, especially during departure calls.

Never leave your things on the bus.

Do not leave your belongings unattended. Other people are interested to attend to them.

While you will be given the chance to buy necessities at the Carcar Public Market, it is best to bring your own lunch as much as possible for very obvious reasons. Again, if you will be left behind, you will have to catch up.

Hence, you are STRONGLY ADVISED to buy and bring your necessities ahead of time to save time and effort. NO BUYING OF FOOD AT JOLIBEE CARCAR WHILE WE ARE STILL DOING THE CHURCH VISIT.

It is advised that you bring a picnic cloth or any excellent substitute. Lunch will be at Dalaguete Beach Park. If you decide to use their cottages/tables, you will have to pay the fee.

Please keep in mind that we will be visiting CHURCHES. Wear something DECENT, therefore.

NO SWIMMING BEFORE, DURING AND AFTER LUNCH. We are on a EDUCATIONAL TOUR, not on an escapade.

During the tour, please DO NOT Bring alcoholic beverages;

Anyone caught doing the abovementioned acts will be reported to the disciplinary office of the school (OSA) and will be subject to sanctions.

I have teacher colleagues assigned to each of your respective buses. They will be in charge throughout the bus rides. Please treat them with respect. In addition, there will be other students who will be riding with you, so please do behave..

I will be bus-hopping as well to make sure you’re still okay.

Remember that you are still bringing the Carolinian name during the activity. Hence, any form of outrageous behavior will not be tolerated and will be dealt with accordingly.
