TPSF Culture
Although TPSF was founded only in the early '90s, its forerunner, the UST Political Science Society was already existing since the '80s. Throughout the decades, the Thomasian political science community developed its own identity and culture, and continues to preserve many of its time-honored traditions.
The Annual Testimonial Dinner
Also called the annual socialization party (or 'Socia'), the annual testimonial dinner is organized by the 3rd year TPSF members as a send-off celebration for their graduating seniors. This tradition has been around for quite some time now, and TPSF's Archives provide us a record of past testimonial dinners.
