| Comments: | My letter was truncated, so here is the continuation ... The Union picket did not materialize and the Benedictine Sisters are continuing the school. Tacloban is very happy with them, and it is our hope that they will soon expand operations to cover the entire campus. Perhaps they will be the phoenix arising from the ashes of DWU. Whatever the ending will be, let us continue praying for our deal Alma Mater.... |

| Comments: | Dear DWU People, I was one of the group that founded the DWU Jubilee Foundation, with the expressed purose of helping reopen DWU. We did our best, but it seems there were some parties who did not want it to reopen, or wanted it reopened but on their own terms.... The good news is that the Benedictine Sisters, who operate St. Paul's Hospital, are slowly taking over the DWU campus by opening up their own Catholic school, which is a branch of St. Scholatisca's College of Manila. Sr. Eloisa David, OSB, MD, is the person behind this, and the one running the new school. It is as Catholic as DWU, and perhaps will be operated with more wisdom and foresight. Is this legal, one may ask. When the school opened a few years back - it is offering health service courses - the Union said it would picket the opening. The good people of Tacloban, especially those with children enrolling there, said that they would picket the picketeers if the Union would go ahead with their picket. Well, it tu |

| Comments: | Hi! All these mails just should how loved and revered DWU is! I was really deeply moved when in one of my Phil visits saw that the university was really closed! Who could imagine that this prestigious university would close? Not in anyones dream!I felt for all the students who now have to seek their knowledge somewhere else. It must have affected many families economically since some probably have to send their children to Cebu or Manila for that matter? This rumor that it will open again ......though still a rumor really makes me glad and for the sake of everyone who cares so much about this institution,I hope that this rumor will come true. Attended 3 semesters at this University way back 1977-1978 and all I have are happy thoughts that lingers on. Brgds, Terry |

| Comments: | id like to find out if and when will be the reopening of the university...and how will it be settled after for so many years of controversial isuues engulfed in it...where will be the source of its funding then? if ever it reopens...does it mean...new policy systems to be adopted and further to be implemented as well as having the new set of administrative officers??? i hope this new system and concerned personnel one way or the other make a new, better and bold difference in running the university and producing global competitive quality education...after all...im just concerned in the crediblity of my first alma mater wherein i have grown up with... i hope...d mistakes and failures in the past...will never happen anymore because its the future and educational training of its students will be place at a greater risk!!! n besides...im proud where i came from--DWU!!! there's no any other institution as better as this university!!! God bless in all of your plans...till then. |

| Comments: | I assume this guestbook is still open for comments. I only want to share my regrets on the closure of DWUT, it was the only high standard school and was to have the only acclaimed medical school in region 8 at that time. But that's history! Anyway, I have a place in DWUT's history by having my BSMT there in '92 and a two-year installment of my med proper. I was caught in the middle! |

| Comments: | Maupay na adlaw ha iyo mga kabugtuan ko kan Kristo! Congratulations! I pray that the rays of the dawn from on high may always touch your hearts with warmth and peace! I owe much of my success to my dear Alma Mater (I studied DWUT from Kindergarten 1975-77,Grade School 1977-83, High School 1983-87 and AB Political Science 1987-91). It had given me the best preparation in my quest to become the person God wanted me to be. I joined the Societas Verbi Divini (SVD) in 1991. For ten years, they molded me to become scholar of theology, of the "things and ways of God". I was ordained priest on Dec.14,2001.

| Comments: | HI DWU-ians. I am from Quezon City,.Fortunately studied in DWU From summer of '86 to '91 from the college of Eng'g.I am a vacationer at that time when I,ve seen a pretty girl living infront of Tacloban Garden in San Jose.I had a friend there named Manly Bayona. One afternoon, I saw that lovely lady sitting infront of their hose( from the opposite side).I ask Manly who is she?.to make the story short she is the reason why I choose to study in DWU.Thats the reson why I cherrished that moment,.I left that place.But the memeories of DWU never fade because of YOU. THE GIRL WAS THE FORMER MS. TANAUAN. MS. HAZEL PELINIO (COLLEGE OF NURSING).YOU'RE STILL IN MY HEART.hoping to see u again. thanks Mr. Webmaster |

| Comments: | I am not part of DWU but it hurt me when they close that institution. I was a graduating student from high school when DWU stopped their operations. I am actually proud of that University since it was known not only to the entire visayas region but in the whole country and maybe the world. I hope the re-open of DWU will start soon so that students from the whole eastern visayas region will benifit from its services. When I go home and decided to study again, that will definitely Divine Word University!!! |

| Comments: | DWU's closure was a let down to the future generation of the Leytenyos and Samarnons access to higher education and has cause an impact economically to the City of Tacloban and finacially to the parents in search of a cheaper institution.It is sad though, that people who may have caused this, put thier greed first above all. I thank DWU for giving me the tool to reach the point where I am now and I wish DWU will reopen to give the others the same opportunity I got three decades ago. |

| Comments: | I work with the canadian government and was surfing the net during my lunch hour when I accidentally came across this site. I am a supporter of this faction to bring back the old spirit of the university and am very optimistic about it. My father, the late Wenceslao Esperas Ripalda, was a native of Tacloban, Leyte. He was the 1974 Hermano Mayor for the City. Most of us, his children, had one way or another gained valuable education with this institution. It is then a privilege to be counted in to this endeavour. God bless to everyone. |

| Comments: | I was in the class 71 DWU Elementary. My co-grads were Jaime Polo, Charito, Victoria Lawas, Dennis, Robert, Agustin, Baltazar brothers, Anita Montejo, Dolly Diokno, etc. I also spent my first year & second year high school where I meet Edna ñiete, Merinchu Teodoro, Mike Arteche & Estella/Rosemarie Vivo (used to be our neighbor in Real St), etc.. "HOW IS EVERYBODY." I heard the closure of the school several years back and just lately I read from the intenet that the alumni and former imployees are getting together to restore the school. The targeted numbers are quite high so I thought of enlisting myself though honestly I really don't have an idea yet how this would help. I pray many more will join the crusade. Sayang talaga especially to some who proudly carried the name DWU to other side of this world. Hope I could reach my classmates - bye. |

| Comments: | Seguro dugay na ako sa states. Wa ako makasabot nga guisad-han na ang DWU, ang akong mahal nga Alma Mater, where I attended when it used to be known as St. Paul's College. Nag-graduate ako sang LL. B. at B.S.C. in 1963 and 1965. Mga patay na seguro ang akong mga profesor, kay besan ako murag nang patay. Ay naku! God bless you na lang sang tanan. Mabuang ako hinumdumun ang nakalipas!!! |

| Comments: | I graduated in 1981 (BSSW). I have fond memories of DWU, most of all, it gave me the knowledge, skill and education which made the transition from being a Social Worker in The Philippines to a Social Worker in Australia. This was Because DWU had the educational curriculum and background in par with the Australian Social Work studies. Info: National Office of Overseas skills recognition (NOOSR) in Canberra went to DWU (and other universities in the Philippines to accredit their standards and DWU was the only university in the visayas region (and 5 UP branches all over the Philippines) accreditted that compared with/came up to Australian standard. Isn't this a good reason for all DWU graduates to join hands with those working to get DWU back on its feet? Every little thing/dollar counts. Imagine all past graduate contributing, say $100 each (minimum)...what would it do to start the ball rolling? |

The negotiation is still on though. I heard they want more money and continuation of the teachers, employees and staff's tenure as far as retirement benefits is concerned...LSU says its impossible...root of greed has taken anchor... |

Today I am very sad of its demise. I hope that it will resurrect someday. I hope that its glory be restored. Aleluyah! |

Graduates were on top of board exams: engineering, law, nursing, teachers. Prestige abounds. Students came from all over Visayas and Mindanao. Even foreigners... from Hongkong, Iran, Libya, Mexico, Spain...they all came to attend at the once mighty DWU. Today, I am always in prayer that DWU returns to its glorious status.

| Comments: | I've visited DWU last April 2001 and September 2002. Every visit is a tearful experience as my thoughts travel down memory lanes. I'm committed to visit DWU every year even if I'll spend thousands of dollars just to keep this commitment. Looks like the edifice is a museum of broken dreams and aspirations of thousands and tens of thousands of young people from Samar and Leyte hoping for quality education that we had once enjoyed. Those who were accountable for the closure of this great Alma Mater would never escape the wrath of justice that would be heaped upon them in that appointed day when every one, as the school's immortal motto states, AGNOSCITE DEI POTENTIAM(ACKNOWLEDGE THE POWER OF GOD)comes into effect. Whoever you are, please be prepared to acknowledge this power to your own condemnation. |

I would like to send my warmest hello to high school class of '86. I know we were known for nothing, class of '85 were the brightest kuno, while the class of '87 were the bagets daw. The only good thing that came out of our batch was we had a good camaraderie amongst each other. Diri la ha paghinambug, bangin magdaog hi Aye (Oscar Lapidario) ha pagka Mayor ha San Miguel.

Here's hoping that DWUT would re-open its doors, oferring education par excellence through a variety of faculties, to the people of Region VIII. I believe DWUT used to be one of the most favourable revenue generating sources for the City of Tacloban, we can make this happen again . . . of course with much extensive efforts, with hands and hearts in unison . . . togther, we can make it happen for the better future of Taclobanons! Let's give the children of Tacloban more options for their aspirations. The main part of intellectual education is not the acquisition of facts but learning how to make facts live. --- Oliver Wendell Holmes |

| Comments: | I came to know this website because of the invitation from our former Instructor Engr. Felipe Vilches, who is the one responsible in its creation. My deepest congratulation to Sir for a very good venue of meeting DWU alumni and employees. I was a BSME batch '87 graduate and I am proud we were 100% passing in the Mechanical Engineering Licensure Board Examination, with one of our classmate Engr. Jorge Labaclado placed 19th. I am proud to be part of DWU. I was admitted at the UP Diliman MS Environmental Engineering without being required to take a load in the undergraduate Engineering Mathematics as a prerequisite in the Advanced Engineering Mathematics, simply because my Engineering Mathematics courses at DWU Engineering were at par at UP Diliman. I am proud of my Alma Mater and this was part of my campaign motto during the Annual Election of the Philippine Society of Mechanical Engineers Quezon City Chapter held last August 2001. I won that election as President for this year. |

| Comments: | I spent 12 years of schooling in DWU. My sister was then the Director of Student Affairs. One funny incident I can remember was that time she caught the security guard "berer" ( I think that was his name)sleeping in his post, drooling. Way too many memories from that school, like "university week" and other festivities. It is a shame that it no longer exist. Best of Luck to those who are working so hard to re-build DWU for the good of the region. Rochelle |

The Dean of Engineering was the late Otilio Crisostomo, Sr. I am a succesful engineer today because of the qaulity of education that I had @ DWU. My resume shines because of my attendance @ DWU. Large corporations such as Exxon, Saudi Aramco or Skil Corp. have hired me because of my resume. I am looking forward to attend the Grand Reopening of this great institution. |

| Comments: | But remember , I am only pegging it on a 1 PESO a day per student! How much more for multiplied 1 PESO? Who was to blame? Was it the administration? the Labor Union? or the students? No, don't blame anyone right now, it's no use already. I think the one to be blame is "THE NO CONTENTMENT IN EVERYONE'S LIFE" attitude of every human being. Yes, everyone has its own right to a better and comfortable living but limitation should always rule. |

| Comments: | I really feel sad everytime I pass by DWU, looking back to those memorable years I have spent there and the wonderful people I've met. But if by God's will DWU reopens, it will truly bring back to all of us the "pride" that we once had...but surely, it will never be the same again!!! |

Like a song in the night, I want to remember those those good old days and those beautiful friends that made my 5 years stay in DWU a very exciting one. I hope to visit and see DWU up and running by 2001. Matuman kunta. |

| Comments: | My whole family grew up with DWU. I myself witnessed it's growth from SPC to DWC to DWU. We went from quonset huts to sprawling jalousied classrooms to multi-storied buildings. When I left it was growing at a phenominal rate that not in a million years could I imagine it's demise. I'm glad you have taken the torch and light the flame again. Godspeed to and we'll be watching you with pride! |

| Comments: | I am for the reopening of the Divine Word University of Tacloban. It had given a lot of opportunities for the men and women whose lives would have been meaningless had they not gone to a university. The presence of DWU in Region VIII was very convenient for the parents whose priority to educate their children was second only to none! Easy to reach, thus easier on the budget. Yet, even if it was just the only university in the area, it had its standards of education that many universities envied upon, noticeable in the results of national examinations, for one. The closure of DWU was a shame and a dismay! It is about time to bring back the pride of the region. |

We need the support of all the alumni around the world. I hope, by the grace of God, it will be restored to its previous place as the center of learning in the Eastern Visayas. |

| Comments: | just surfing and so far no comments as yet. I think your mission should go as far as it should. I have never known that DWU ceased to operate as I have known so many friends graduated there. No wonder why that I have not found any website before as I was surfing to find some ways to get hold of my friends who went through the University. I am really surprised about this news(old) as I was even contemplating to send my children to study there. I hope and wish for all the success of your plans. |

| Comments: | To all who visit this website: Please contact DWU people - students, alumni, employees - and friends of DWU, and let them register online, so we can increase the membership of DWUJF. We organized the DWUJF in the spirit of the Jubilee Year, and in response to the thousands of DWU "diehards" who wanted to help restore DWU, but did not know how. In due time, we will come out with specific programs to restore our Alma Mater to its former greatness. In the meantime, the name of the game is to recruit members into the Foundation. We estimate that there are about 100,000 DWU alumni, former students and employees out there waiting to be called to help their Alma Mater in its hour of need. |

I always like being in touch with Tacloban, its people, etc. I didn't study at DWU (nor St. Paul's) but we lived on P. Paterno, very close to it and I even attended mass at the chapel. My brother, Juan Bosco Ledesma, studied at St. Paul's High School for a year. My other brother, Jose Luis (Papoose) Ledesma is an XVD. Best wishes, Mrs. Noel. I think you knew my parents -- Mr. Jose B. Ledesma and Mrs. Alegre A. Ledesma. |
