Engineering Class of 2025: Bowling Night

Engineering Class of 2025: Bowling Night

We had a bowling night at the charming and historic Commodore Lanes in downtown Vancouver. We had quite a diverse turnout, with four engineering disciplines being represented. By our calculations, chemical engineers are the best at bowling with geological engineers coming in at a close second. I’m not going to disclose who was last. It’s been almost a year since we all crossed the stage, and we already have so many stories and good memories racked up from the first year of our professional careers. It was great to share our favourite moments with each other in between intense bowling talk. Of course, we reminisced on our not-so-long-ago UBC days, and how most of all we miss the luxury of being to meet after class for a coffee, or running into each other on main mall during a mad-dash to our next lecture. It was fitting that our bowling night fell on Saint Patrick’s Day, because we consider ourselves lucky to be part of such a special friendship, built on long days at the library, hikes, ski days, and bowling nights.
