Welcome Back Titans!
Sep 2nd
PBL Info Meeting
Come to our PBL Info Meeting on Tuesday, September 8 at 4:00pm in the Titan Student Union Room Alvarado B. This is your chance to learn about the organization, what we did in the past, what we’ll be doing this year, and to meet great new people! We’ll discuss what Phi Beta Lambda is, membership discount events, conferences, and what you can expect to experience and learn during the year.
Speaking of discount events – you can get $2 off your membership for every event you attend and the first event is the PBL Info Meeting! The other discount events will be the first general meeting on the 9th, a PBL social event, and a special charity event that we are planning called Twestival CSUF on September 14.
If you can’t attend the info meeting, don’t worry. You can always attend our General Meeting the next day.
General Meetings
Our first general meeting is Wednesday, September 9 at 4:00pm in the Titan Student Union in Gilman AB.
We’re going to have guest speakers Steve Averill and Justin Moore-Brown of OCJobTalk.com and OCBizblog.com. They are both Orange County entrepreneurs so this will be a great chance to network and learn about how they turn passion into profit.
Please note that all of our meetings will be on the last three Wednesdays of the month at 4pm. If you’re unable to attend meetings because of class, no worries…you can still join! We have events on different days of the week that you can participate in.
Membership
Phi Beta Lambda opens its membership to everybody which means students of all majors can join!
Membership is $80 per year and can be paid at any of the first three meetings.

Officer Positions
We have two officer positions open to new and returning members: Executive Assistant and Design Manager. More information will be available at the Informational Meeting and the First General meeting.

And our September MOM is…
Oct 21st
Though a new member to the CSUF PBL family, she has already done more than what’s expected! She helped out at the PBL recruiting tables during Discoverfest and the first week of school. She was THE first member to turn in her application and she has participated in almost all of the recent PBL events. She has participated in eveything from Tech Rush to the new unofficial PBL activity, geocaching, and this is her 1st year at CSUF! For these reasons, Cheri indeed deserves to be our Member of the Month for September 2008!

Cheri says she was happy and surprised when she found out that she was the MOM! Her favorite PBL event so far has been Disney’s Tech Rush. She said in her MOM interview, “I already liked Disney so it was cool to meet the employees and get a “Behind the Scenes” tour. For example, they showed how the employees actually draw animations for movies.” She is looking forward to participating in the Fresh Start Program and going to the conferences!
Her plans for the future include majoring in Business Administration – Economics. She plans to graduate and continue to get her masters.
Some fun facts about Cheri:
- Her current favorite song is : “Young Love” by Chris Brown
- TV show she cant miss is: One Tree Hill
- She can’t get sick of eating: Egg tart (an Asian pastry)
- Movie that she thinks you must see: The Pursuit of Happyness
- Her pet peeve: People who drive slowly
Her advice for members coveting the MOM title is that its better to be an active member, to go to the events and have fun!
Congratulations, Cheri! We’re proud to have you as a member!
