The UP Communication Research Society is a gold mine of exceptional Communication Research majors, whose skills and talents have remained unparalleled throughout the organization’s 36 years of existence. Established in 1977, it takes pride in being the first and only exclusive academic organization based at the Department of Communication Research in the UP College of Mass Communication. The organization has created and facilitated various activities which uphold, build, and maintain its core values – integrity, academic excellence, and social responsibility.
These activities include symposia, career orientations, outreaches and fundraising programs. The Society takes part in research projects that enable them to practice and further develop their research skills. It conducts the CommRespondent, the organization’s own study on media and communication phenomena. Its fourth volume regarding the UP Students' perception of love and relationships was featured in the Philippine Daily Inquirer. Last year, UP CommResSoc’s fifth volume, Leading and Living the Creed: The Correlation between Local Officials’ Religious and Leadership Orientations was chosen to be presented for the UNIV Philippine Congress 2010. The Society also takes pride in its official publication, The Highlighter. Released every semester, it aims to further the technical and creative writing skills of its members.
Numerous alumni members of the organization have become glorified and respected in various industries, which include advertising, marketing, broadcast journalism, research and development, and the academe, among others.
