The Portfolio of the IACC Jamon White,was on show from the 21st of November when it was officially opened on the Guild Lawn until the 27th when it culminated with one of the best Caribbean Integration Fetes in recent memory at Cave Hill Campus."Caribbean Spirit &Unity" as it was entitled, brought together some of the best entertainment the region has to offer while transforming the SCR car park into a "party hard" atmosphere.The show got started with some local and campus deejays and artistes as the crowd started to build slowly.By the time Jamaica's Konshens hit the stage the excitement in the audience was at fever-pitch and Konshens did not disapppoint."This is your Konshens speaking" he said calmly as he introduced himself to the campus audience before performing some of his signature tunes including the wildly popular "Gal dem ah talk bout me." Trinidad&Tobag was represented in the form of KMC who kept the crowd bouncing with tunes like "Soul on Fire","I'm not drunk" and his ever popular "First Experience." It was time to close things down by the time Barbados' own board-face,Hypa Dawg Lil Rick appeared onstage, in what was to be a short but exciting appearance of which the audience vocally approved.Performing the mega hit "Guh down" Lil Rick was left to sing "Big Hail" acapella before he was eventually joined onstage by campus security who were keeping a keen eye on the time.


Other events in the week inculded a Cultural Showcase,Caribbean Cook off and the ever-popular Caribbean Fashion Show all held on the guild lawn and the modestly attended Flag and Beer Party in the Students Union.
