UPBSFAAI key officers, resident brods (UP Diliman), and lawyer-brods met at Club Filipino, Greenhills, San Juan. as another milestone in our history, we initially organized the UP Betan Legal Assistance Team to respond to our fraternity's legal needs.  All Betan lawyer brods present eagerly responded and volunteered to offer their services.  It was agreed upon that senior lawyers will be the advisory group to be chaired by no other than the Presidential Legal Counsel Justice Raoul Victorino with Congressman Mat Defensor as Vice Chairman.  The younger practicing lawyer-brods will be the main core group.  They will be designated to assist/represent/handle cases, matters like registrations, permits and formulation of other legal instruments that may be required.  We will officially constitute the final list on our July 14-16 anniversary fellowship.  President Ruben Pascual presided and informed everyone of our most important current legal needs.
