BALCS Takes the Initiative and Joins the Nationwide Call for Earthquake Preparedness
On March 12, 2026, students from the Bachelor of Arts in Literary and Cultural Studies (BALCS) participated in the First Quarter National Simultaneous Earthquake Drill (NSED 2026). This important event allowed students to practice the “Duck, Cover, and Hold” procedure, a crucial safety technique during earthquakes, while following essential safety protocols.
Despite the ongoing Midterm Examinations, our university community’s commitment to safety and preparedness was evident through the continued preparations.
The drill aimed to enhance students’ understanding of disaster preparedness, reminding everyone that knowledge and preparation are vital in responding to sudden emergencies. It also reinforced our shared responsibility for creating a safer and more resilient academic environment.
