Foundation and Development

The University of Bohol was originally named Rafael Palma College after the greatest scholar of his time,
the late Dr. Rafael Palma. Its history is an account of how a group of public and civic spirited citizens of

the province of Bohol ventured to establish an educational institution in answer to a long felt need of
college education to those who could not afford to study outside the province.
Rising from the ashes of World War II in 1946, the Boholanos welcomed with anticipation the birth of a
local college whose first members of the Board of Trustees were: Dr. Pio C. Castro, President; Mr.
Mariano Rocha, Vice President; Atty. Felix Magdales, Secretary; Mr. Catalino Castillo, Treasurer, and Atty.
DonatoGalia, members. The first permits for the pioneer courses were granted by the Bureau of Private
Schools on June 10, 1946 through the earnest efforts of Atty. Victoriano D. Tirol, Sr.

The idea upper-most in the minds of the founders was to establish a non-sectarian, non-profit, and nonpolitical school that would offer high standard of instruction within the reach of the common man. The
school is supported by subscription from public-spirited citizens who, without any personal interest, have
devoted themselves to the cause of raising the educational and cultural horizon of the people. The
College admitted to her halls in July, 1946, 622 students. Since then she had grown in size, leadership
and influence far beyond the dreams of the founders despite inadequate revenues, adversities and
prejudice. The institution now offers instruction in many branches of knowledge on the postgraduate,
graduate, collegiate, secondary, elementary and pre-elementary levels. The University opened the UB Victoriano D. Tirol Advanced Learning Center on June 1995, a highly competitive school for basic
education in an 8-hectare campus in the suburbs of the city as a development thrust for the 21st century.

UB Student Creed
( by Atty. David B. Tirol )
I believe That I am a child of God, heir to an abundant life
and a glorious future,
That simple duty constraint me
to claim on this, my precious inheritance.

I believe That my inheritance will come to me

only after I make myself ready
and worthy to receive;
That the doors and windows of opportunity
are open widest for me
by the blessings of education.

I believe That the power of knowledge

and the strength of character I harvest
from education
are able to free from the bondage of
ignorance
and the fetters of poverty.

I believe That once I am free, I can face the world

with confidence and bravely answer
the summons of my destiny
to be what I ought to be.

I believe To achieve to the fullest measure,

the grand unfolding of my spiritual
and human potentials
and then to cherish my Alma Mater,
love my people, serve my country
and worship my God.

UB Hymn
( by Justiniano "Ning" Romea )

From the darkness to light you lead me

From the fetters of poverty.

I shall thank you now till forever

U of B my Alma Mater dear.

Henceforth where I go I'll remember

To forget you I'll never do.
All these joyful mem'ries I'll always bear
U of B my Alma Mater dear.

And my heart will always keep longing,

As my lips will constantly sing
Of the name so sweet and so dear to me
And thats you, my dear U of B.
