Multi-disciplinary researchers of the College of Humanities and Social Sciences delivered their findings and recommendations in the "Talakayang CHSS" held on March 12, 2024, at the CHSS Audio-Visual Room. Associate Professor Dennis Sumaylo of the Department of Humanities explained how geographically isolated and disadvantaged areas remain vulnerable to natural hazards due to the "Digital Divide." Assistant Professor Ryan Songcayauon of the Department of Architecture showed how the college could accommodate the increased enrollment of the "Road to 5K" program with cooperation among faculty and students. Instructor Malaya Lapina of the Department of Social Sciences disclosed that gender-safe spaces are defined by social relations rather than physical spaces. Instructor Jeffrey Javier of the Department of Humanities pointed out how local topographic features featured in poetry using adopted languages could displace local cultures. Finally, Assistant Professor Jezreel Abarca of the Department of Human Kinetics advocated the use of "Laban" notation to document the indigenous dances whose practitioners are decreasing in number.
