MARIKIT PARK\u2014Students from GC’s College of Computer Studies (CCS) launched their first-ever Tech Fest to inform its participants of the dangers and capabilities of cyber technicalities and to showcase the talents of the participating attendees last February 22, Saturday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The event was initiated by fourth-year students from BSIT, BSEMC, and BSCS of the college, with unifying the CCS students and tech <\/a>people of Olongapo as one of their goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When asked, Kurt Jeehan Tejado, one of the Events Chairman stressed out that this is a fund-raising activity that aims to allocate its earnings to the CCS students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“May plan na magkaroon ng iMac lab para sa mga CCS students. And then, ‘yong purpose nito [fund-raising] is makatulong sa pag-upgrade no’ng iMac lab na ‘yon,” Tejado assured.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to that, the festival includes three portions of educational talk with Mr. Domingo J. Chico in his “CyberSecurity 101” lecture; Mr. Wilson Censon on “How AI is shaping our future: Opportunities for students”; and Mr. Marvin Calingacion teaching “Pillars of information security.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the other hand, the Tech Fest also hosted multiple talent showcases, namely; cosplay runway, esports highlights, film screening, and digital arts presentation from its participants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Moreso, there are numerous booths within the premises offering food and other products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In an interview with The Forefront, Events Chairman Mark Labucca expressed how difficult it was for them to push this event through.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I can say, ang pinaka naging malaking challenge talagang kinaharap namin is ‘yong pag-gather ng participants.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Furthermore, Labucca, when asked why the event’s date was moved from January 15 to February 22, stated how the participant invitation forced them to postpone the former date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“January 15 kasi hindi pa siya start ng semester…mas lalong naging hindrance ‘yong hindi pa start ‘yong semester sa pag-gather namin ng participants,” he furthered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

GC CCS Tech Fest team will aim to continue this program as a legacy of their college to launch the same event next year with the goal of further widening its scope of attendees, its contents, and solidifying its purpose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
