And our September MOM is…
Oct 21st
Cheri Yuo!
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!

PBL Programs
Oct 17th
Participating in PBL programs is the best way to get the full experience of PBL! Each program is designed to help you develop your personal, career, and academic skills. Bellow is a description of each of the programs we offer. Follow the link to sign up for each program. I encourage you to participate!
Member of the month (MOM): Monthly award given to a deserving member made a significant and positive contribution to the development of PBL. MOM will be announced at the 1st meeting of each month, receive a certificate of recognition, featured on our blog, twitter, and receive a small gift.
Fresh Start: A program exclusively for new members where you accumulate points by attending and being involved in PBL activities. Once you accumulate 175 points you graduate from fresh start , and are recognized at our state conference. Experience college life the PBL way! Perks: Fresh start socials exclusively for Fresh starters.
Sign up here:
SPARK study groups: New program for academic development of PBLers. Give us your class schedule and we will match you with other students that have the same class so that you can have a study group. Once you set up your groups- you can use our PBL office #265 in the TSU for studying. Also, you will have access to the new PBL test bank. When you receive a test back from your professor – let us scan it into google docs ( we will white out your name and grade) – and you will have access to test questions for practice!
sign up here:
Market Trends: Learn how to manage stocks in a fun way! You will get fake money to invest in the stock market and get experience on how the market works. This is a state wide program- which means you will be competing against PBL’rs from UCLA, UCSD, UC Berkley. – but don’t let that scare you!! CSUF won 1st place in market trends both semesters last year! It costs $5 to participate- but who ever wins 1st place gets a CASH price!!
sign up here:
Next Top Chapter (NTC): State wide program that recognizes the most active chapters! It honors the chapters that dedicate time and effort in planning activities for the members and community. We accumulate points as a chapter based on activities that meet the PBL crest- service , education, and progress.
Our ultimate goal: CSUF NTC 2008!!
iNetwork: This program is designed for PBL to share our knowledge with FBLA high school members by participating in different networking, social, and academic activities throughout the year with FBLA. Some of our PBL members today, came from FBLA! We have previously worked with Santa Fe High School, Kennedy High School and Troy High School.
