On the occasion of UP College of Medicine’s (UPCM) 100th Commencement Exercises held last May 17, 2009 at the University Theater, UP Diliman, the fraternity proudly congratulates the 21 new graduate Brods from the UPCM Class 2009.

The Brods of Class 2009 at the 2009 UP Manila Graduation

The UPCM Class 2009 was a historic batch in the College as it was the first class to be taught under the newly implemented Organ System Intergrated (OSI) curriculum. The Class would also make MU history as 21 of its members made it into the fold of the most acclaimed fraternity in the UP College of Medicine.  The Brods of Batch 2009 will always be remembered as the batch that crowded the hut, the College, and the Wards, for they always made their presence felt simply by their sheer number.
