college students. Gender-wise, the majority of people were female (59.3%), followed by
men (39%), while a tiny minority (1.7%) classified as LGBTQ+. Age breakdown shows
that the largest percentage of people are between the ages of 18 and 20 (51.0%),
closely followed by those between the ages of 21 and 23 (46.3%). The 24-to 28-year-
old age group accounted for a lower percentage of responses (2.7%). The Department
of Criminal Justice and Enforcement (DCJE), which accounted for 30.7% of the
distribution. The departments of DTE (27.7%) and DBA (23%) are also noteworthy. In
comparison, the percentages for DAS (9%), DTP (5%), DAE (3%), and COE (1.7%)
were smaller.

among college students is sometimes observed this means that students participate in
physical activity 3 days a week in their free time. 74(24.7%) students answered “often”
which implies “high”. This indicates that physical activity engagement among college

similar activities are considered moderate aerobic exercises. Physical activity and
cardiorespiratory health are directly correlated, according to a study by Zahrt, O. H., &
Crum, A. J. (2020); however, significant risk reductions can only be attained with 150
minutes a week of moderate to vigorous exercise. Further health advantages are noted
when physical activity levels rise to 300 minutes per week or higher.

expectation gap. People learn more about disaster preparedness the more involved
they are in society. According to Schoch-Spana et al. (2006), low citizen participation is
A community can more quickly recover from natural disasters, reduce the
likelihood that its members would experience mental stress, and address physical
health issues right away (Johnston et al., 2022). The community's role in disaster
recovery has received more attention in recent years. In particular, the significance of
local knowledge, action, participation, and control in defining the character of disaster
response has been highlighted (Brennan, et al, 2022). It makes sense that, in the event
of a crisis, the local community should be the first to respond and prepare (Gamboa-

Natural and man-made disasters can happen without warning, so being proactive
