groups of students and activities inside the institution. But socializing with the

students have to learn the cultures and rules. These rules and culture cannot be
found only in books. It can be also found and learned through interaction with the
co-learners and the teachers because there are times that the rules are changing
However, there are still some students who tend to explore more on the
campus by joining the said social activities. The negative side of their
participation in these activities is that they have a tendency to give more time to it
than to study and do other academic activities. There are times that students are
much focused on the activities of the social factors they are into (Coakley, 2003).

students’ academic performance and the steps they can take to perform

Sports activities consume a lot of time to students who should practice more
often. Due to this, there is only a little time left for them to study. And with the
exhausting practice of their sports, the only time left for them is just fort rest and
sleep. With regards to the romantic relationship this factor demands a lot of time
for students and amount of time is supposed to be allotted with their studies.

The study is focused on how the first year COED students perceive the

activities.
Theoretical Framework
This study was anchored with the theoretical framework of S.S. Umar,

social factors of student cults, romantic relationship, clubs and organizations, and
sports, that this has an effect to the academic performance of the students.

Further, the theory of Umar, Yakubu, and Badao was supported by the
study of Bureau, et al. (2011) under the campus organizations, specifically the
fraternities and sororities. They have concluded that members who are more
engaged in this kind of organization are more involved in school than those of
non-members.
