With the help of Ms. Anabelle Maglasang of the UP Cebu Office of Student Affairs and in coordination of the TLRC, twenty-one students from various universities in Cebu City were able to attend and complete their required training output for their Community and Self Subjects. The training, College Life: Journey to a Better You and Anti-Sexual Harassment in Schools and Universities was created to introduce students to the various faces of college life and the threats of sexual harassment inside their campuses.
The training is meant to help them better plot and manage their time and to balance life and academics. It also helps them understand cases and instances of sexual harassment and what they can do to prevent it and/or respond if it occurs to them.
Ms. Maglasang was very kind to offer them the free training not just an extension of the University but also in deeper solidarity to a better and fruitful college life for all students no matter what university or school they came from.
The training started at 8 AM to 11 AM on 28 September 2019. The office hopes to extend their services to those who needs them and wish to enjoin the university in the future extension endeavors of its constituents. The training is especially new to the center as it is the first time that the beneficiaries are from various backgrounds and schools.
