Writers in time of a crumbling society

Rosca stated that FilIpinos yearn for completeness that can be found elsewhere and ignores the reality of a system that is specific to resistance and the realities of revolution. She prescribes what the writers should do in times of crisis where society is pulled in various directions due to divisiveness. “We should document the narrative of our times because time with a capital “T” is almost always the major character of any work of fiction. Second, we must try weave a cohesive narrative from all the [threads] of our histories, noting man to all the changes that there is still that great national ‘I am’ that cannot be eradicated. Third, we must resist the constant push for writers to dream upon idealized alternative [world] like Wakanda,” she said, highlighting that we must not turn away and replace our reality with fantasy.

“Our prime responsibility and our prime mission is to inspire these generation, and the next generation to believe that another world is possible,” Rosca said.

Between solitude and mobilization

According to Rosca, to be a writer and an activist is a huge contradiction, a tug-of-war between solitude and mobilization. “Writing is solitary ,and you do not write with committees. You sit at your desk and write,” she said. “Activism is socialized undertaking. You have to be with people, you have to move people, you have to mobilize,” she added.

Rosca is the author of “State of War”, “Sugar and Salt”, and “Stories of a Bitter Country”.

Medrano’s talk focused on the extinction of Lake Lanao鈥檚 15 endemic cyprinid fishes from the genus Barbodes, including the highly prized Barbodes baoulan which was eventually traced to the proliferation of an invasive fish species, Glossogobius giuris. The latter was introduced to the lake during the 1960s to augment local fisheries. As a historian, Medrano also provided perspectives on the history of the discovery of the endemic cyprinids of Lake Lanao, including the scientists who discovered the said species and documented the decline of Lake Lanao鈥檚 biodiversity.

The lecture was attended by undergraduate and graduate students in Biology as well as select faculty members of the Department of Biological Sciences. The event was organized by undergraduate BS Biology major in Medical Biology students under 2MBio3 as part of their General Ecology (Bio 426) class under the supervision of Dean Rey Donne S.

In her talk entitled 鈥淩edefining Hospitality Business Management in the Next Norm,鈥� Prof. Cathy Hsu from the Hong Kong Polytechnic University鈥檚 School of Hotel and Tourism Management said that a 鈥渃omprehensive and rigorous鈥� qualitative approach in topics such as post-pandemic consumer behavior validates research findings.

Additionally, qualitative research is uncommon in the tourism industry with a decreased credibility unlike in anthropological and sociological areas, as highlighted by Prof. Jerome Agrusa from the University of Hawaii, in his talk entitled 鈥淩edefining Tourism on the Next Norm.鈥� Agrusa urged flexibility among research approaches that shared four constructs such as truth value, applicability, consistency, and neutrality to remedy over-tourism and promote regenerative tourism, a trend of sharing one goal. Flexible research approaches can ensure tourism sustainability and viability from economic downturns such as exploitation of destinations and workers, he added.

Citing the eye-tracking and facial expression analysis, Hsu also highlighted the credibility of quantitative research due to its objective approach to determine the psychophysiological methods over qualitative approaches such as interviews and surveys. She also warned against a potential inaccuracy of qualitative methods, as it is only limited to subjective emotions.

The lectures were part of the weeklong Philippine International Tourism and Hospitality Research Conference 2023 (PITH-ReCon 2023).

He also emphasized that as leader one should be mindful, as learner one should be humble, and as teacher one should be systems thinker.
