Item Trends in the work profession of BABC graduates, SY 2001-2004Acosta, Meryll Joyce; Rojo, Rea Ann; Yulo, Novy Katherene (Division of Biological Sciences, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2004-10)This study was conducted to find out the trends or patterns in the work profession of BA Broadcast Communication graduates from school years 2001-2002, 2002-2003, and 2003-2004 using sex and major field as variables. It also aims to find out what other jobs BABC graduates have, what factors affected them, and how satisfied are they with their jobs. This study was conducted during the first semester of the school year 2004-2005. Respondents chosen for this study were 140 graduates of BABC from school years 2001-2004. However, only 39 were able to reply. The locale of the study includes various places in the Philippines, mostly Metro Manila, Iloilo City, and Iloilo Province. The research design used in this study is descriptive. Results of the study show that majority of BABC graduates do not end up in the media. Those who were able to get into broadcast-related jobs do not plan to stay for good in their present jobs. On the other hand, those who did not get into broadcast-related jobs plan to pursue these kinds of jobs. The study also shows that most BABC graduates within the said school years are moderately satisfied with their present jobs.Item Patterns and shifts of the Carriada system of San Remegio, Antique in Western PanayAlera, Geralyn G. (Division of Social Sciences, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 1998-03)This descriptive research identifies the patterns and shifts in the transport and trading practices of the carriada across the southern boundaries between the provinces of Antique and Iloilo. Along with occular observations, interviews were conducted by the researcher with village residents of San Remigio (Antique) to gain insights into the everyday workings of village life. The results reveal that there have been changes in the carriada system explained by changes in the availability of vehicles and animals used and types and levels of productivity of local crops. Another significant factor affecting the development of the carriada were directly relevant to the settings of Barangay Agricula and Barangay Panpanan 1: the population increase in both village. However, the changes in the carriada system did not greatly alter the characteristics of the peasant economy of these areas. Although more people engage in more trade, their incomes/profits are not that substantial to change their life patterns. People still live in houses made of wood, bamboo and nipa, and crops they yield from their farms are just enough for family consumptions. Most residents in the mountain areas still aspire to obtain a living from their farms for generations to come.
