In an interview with Rappler on Tuesday, January 21, Glenda Dimaano, head of extension services of Batangas State University , said only 3 of their 11 campuses are being used as evacuation shelters. Puwede kami tumanggap, pero kaunti lang po kasi po ang mga classroom ay limited lang. Mayroon din po ditong construction ng building kaya po di rin kami makapag accomodate ng madami."Anakalusugan Representative Michael Defensor has urged state universities in the provinces of Batangas, Cavite, and Laguna “to consider offering portions of their campuses as possible evacuation sites.”
