First wear, first walk, first wave. With the grey and red balloons, the freshmen of B.S. Computer Science (CS) had become official Thomasians as they walked through the legendary Arch of the Centuries in the University of Santo Tomas (UST). They were welcomed as the first batch to be under the latest college developed in UST – the Institute of Information and Computing Sciences (IICS). Sporting the first uniform design of the IICS which is cream in color, has grey and red fabric strips on both arms and from the neck to the heart, CS students arrived at the University early for the event. They waited for their turn to enter the Arch of the Centuries for at least one hour, but it did not caused an issue between the students and the staff for the students had visibly enjoyed their times together. The Computer Science Society (CSS), together with the other student organizations inside the institute, prepared and briefed the students on what to do, gave them their props such as the balloons and signboards. While waiting, the CS students took their time by taking selfies, getting to know other students, and playing with the balloons. Three students from the higher years of different IICS programs came out wearing unicorn onesie, Starlord costume, and swimming suit, which caused more patience and happiness from the freshmen. The freshmen’s energies were not drained out as they had their walk to the arch. When it was their turn to walk under it, they were still many few steps away from the arch, but they were all hyped up and everyone cheered the IICS cheer. The now-official Thomasians were running under the arch, welcoming themselves and their friends to the university. When all the freshmen had entered the Arch of the Centuries and had settled themselves on the chairs placed in the UST grounds, the hosts introduced every course and had the pre – mass programme wherein the very first flag of the Institute of Information and Computing Sciences was raised and waved. That was the first time it was revealed to the students, making it to the history of the University and the institute as the first wave of the first flag of IICS. The Eucharistic Celebration followed the pre-mass programme and the CS students were officially one of the Tomasinos. The campus tour of the freshmen were held in the afternoon, after the mass and before the Thomasian Welcome Walk party where they had more fun for the night.
