Step through the looking glass and into a world of endless possibilities, where curiosity and imagination lead the way. Welcome to Alice in BioLand: The Freshmen Adventure!
“In the gardens of memory, In the palace of dreams, That’s where you and I will meet.”
Like Alice, who fell down the rabbit hole into a land full of whimsical wonders, you’re about to embark on a journey that blends science, fantasy, and discovery. BioLand is where the study of life comes alive—where biology unfolds in all its complexity and wonder. As new students, you’re about to begin this thrilling adventure, and we’re here to help you find your way through the exciting landscape of university life.
At the Freshman Orientation, you’ll get a sneak peek into the magical world of biology. Learn about the wonders of life sciences—from the tiniest cells to the vast ecosystems that make up our planet. Discover how biology impacts everything around us, and how your journey through this field will shape your future.
But this adventure isn’t just about academics. As you step into BioLand, we’ll also explore the importance of mental health. Just like Alice faced challenges and riddles, you may encounter hurdles along the way. Maintaining your well-being is key to thriving, both academically and personally. We’ll provide tips and insights on balancing your studies with self-care, helping you navigate the ups and downs of university life.
And who will guide you on this journey? Meet the newly elected officers of the Polytechnic University of the Philippines (PUP)-Society of Biology Students (SBS)—your fellow adventurers who have accepted the challenge to lead. Like the Mad Hatter, Cheshire Cat, and other Wonderland guides, these officers are here to ensure you have the tools and support needed to thrive. Their mission is to advocate for you, offer services and activities that enrich your academic experience, and create opportunities for growth and collaboration.

This orientation is your gateway into a realm where learning never stops, where every new discovery opens a door to even more questions. So, follow the white rabbit and take the first step into this adventure. The SBS officers are here to ensure that no matter where your journey leads, you’ll have the support, guidance, and encouragement needed to succeed.
“We’re all mad here,” but it’s a madness for learning, for growing, and for making the most of this incredible opportunity. Don’t miss out on your chance to join the fun, explore the wonders of biology, and start your adventure in BioLand!
