Blending science, storytelling, and suspense, the USLS Biological Society opens The Hive Booth—an immersive outbreak-themed experience challenging students to solve a biotech crisis during Lasallian Week 2025.
Day 1 of Lasallian Week 2025 marked the official activation of “The Hive Protocol,” as the UBS unveiled its immersive booth experience at B31, transforming a simple space into a pulse-racing fusion of science fiction, creativity, and Lasallian ingenuity.
Fresh from the grand opening of Lasallian Week 2025 at the St. La Salle Coliseum, themed “Astralis: A Constellation of Lasallian Brilliance,” the energy flowed straight into the campus grounds, where students eagerly lined up for their first encounter with The Hive. The booth officially launched at 1:00 PM on Monday, September 22, and will remain open daily from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM until September 26.
Inspired by outbreak narratives and futuristic lab environments, The Hive invites visitors to step inside a decommissioned biotech facility plunged into crisis. Sirens blare, warnings crackle, and cryptic research logs hint at biological anomalies lurking beneath the surface. Once inside, participants face a mission: use their knowledge, intuition, and problem-solving skills to contain the mysterious “virus” before it mutates beyond control.
The experience blends suspense with scientific curiosity—reflecting the UBS commitment to making biology not only educational, but immersive and exciting. Students must navigate clues, decode scientific anomalies, and make quick decisions as they race against time. It is part escape-room, part science exhibit, and part narrative adventure, designed by Biology students to showcase the creativity and analytical thinking of the program.
Beyond the thrills, The Hive Booth also celebrates the Lasallian spirit: teamwork, resilience, and brilliance under pressure. It invites the community to explore a world where science meets story and where each participant becomes part of the unfolding crisis response.
Tickets are priced at ₱20, with an optional ₱10 add-on for a printed photo souvenir, capturing the moment each visitor steps into the shadows of The Hive.
As Lasallian Week continues, The Hive stands as one of the most anticipated experiential booths of the celebration, drawing crowds eager to test their wits and immerse themselves in a world of science-driven storytelling.
