Northwest Samar State University proudly recognizes Dr. Joseph Emil A. David and Dr. Jessica C. Alorro, faculty researchers from the College of Management (COM), for the publication of their research entitled:โ€œExplaining Hotel Pricing Strategies Through Service Offerings: Evidence from a Mediation Model of People, Process, and Physical Evidence.โ€

Published in the FWU Journal of Social Science (Vol. 20, No. 3, September 2026, pp. 202โ€“214), the study examines how key service marketing dimensionsโ€”people, process, and physical evidenceโ€”help explain hotel pricing strategies. By exploring the relationship between service offerings and pricing decisions, the research provides valuable insights into how hospitality businesses can align their services with pricing strategies to strengthen competitiveness and enhance customer value.

Congratulations to Dr. David and Dr. Alorro for this scholarly achievement and for advancing research excellence at Northwest Samar State University!

Brought together by a shared vision to develop a responsive, strategic, and future-oriented institutional agenda aligned with national, regional, and global frameworks, university officials, college deans, program chairs, coordinators, and external stakeholders united for this milestone event.

Day 1 focused on laying the strategic foundation, opening with remarks from Dr. Teodoro A. Amatosa, Jr. (VP-RIEEA), University President Atty. Lorelie Fabillar-Tangaran, and Dr. Archie B. Lauderes (Director, Office of the Extension). The sessions featured expert insights from Dr. Jonas P. Villas, VP for Research, Innovation, Extension, and Internationalization at Leyte Normal University, followed by college-level workshops where deans, program chairpersons, coordinators, and stakeholders collaborated to draft their respective college research and extension agendas.

Day 2 centered on harmonization and finalization, beginning with a recap and the continuation of agenda crafting per college. Plenary presentations led by college deans paved the way for an afternoon harmonization workshop facilitated by Mr. Louiesito A. Magnaye Jr. (Director, ORDS) and Dr. Archie B. Lauderes to consolidate the outputs into a unified institutional agenda. The event concluded with commitments, the presentation of the finalized agenda, and closing remarks delivered by Mr. Louiesito A. Magnaye Jr.

A massive thank you to all university officials, faculty members, external stakeholders, and the RIEEA committee for your active participation in building a responsive, future-oriented research and extension roadmap for NwSSU!

Cayetano paid a courtesy visit to Hon. Raymund C. Uy, City Mayor of Calbayog, today as part of their three-day exploratory visit to Northwest Samar State University (NwSSU).

The visit brought together NwSSU President Atty. Lorelie Fabillar-Tangaran, Vice President for Research, Innovation, Extension and External Affairs Dr. Teodoro A. Amatosa, Jr., key University officials, and members of the visiting delegation.

The meeting provided an opportunity for the University, the visiting delegation, and the City Government to exchange perspectives on local development, institutional collaboration, and emerging community needs.

Among those who joined the dialogue was Mr. Noel De Guia, representative of the Office of Senator Pia Cayetano and Resident Futurist of the Senate Committee on Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), Innovation and Futures Thinking. He shared insights on futures thinking and anticipatory governance, emphasizing the importance of looking ahead and preparing for possible challenges and opportunities.

The discussion also complemented NwSSUโ€™s continuing efforts in strategic planning and futures thinking, particularly in developing institutional directions that are responsive to national priorities while remaining grounded in local needs and opportunities.

The visit also coincided with a meeting of the Calbayog City Council, where local officials were discussing preparations for the possible impacts of the El Niรฑo phenomenon. De Guia was given an opportunity to share brief insights on the importance of preparedness, anticipatory thinking, and foresight in addressing emerging challenges.

The engagement forms part of the October 5โ€“7, 2026 Exploratory Visit of Marinduque State University and the representative of Senator Pia Cayetano to NwSSU, which includes institutional presentations, technical sessions, discussions on areas of mutual interest and collaboration, a ceremonial signing of a Memorandum of Understanding, and visits to NwSSUโ€™s Main and San Jorge Campuses.

Overall, the courtesy visit provided a venue for dialogue, shared perspectives, and stronger linkages among the University, the visiting institutions, and the City Government of Calbayog.
