Centro Escolar de Señoritas

CEU was established in 1907 by pedagogists Librada Avelino and Carmen de Luna as the Centro Escolar de Señoritas, based in Parañaque. [1] [2] Its main purpose was to teach "ideal womanhood, intelligent citizenry, and democratic leadership that would instill in the tenets of science and virtue." [1] [2] At the time of its establishment, it was the first non-sectarian women's educational institution in the Philippines (now a coeducational educational institution). [9] It founded the College of Pharmacy in 1921, pioneering medical education in the Philippines. [2] [1] Subsequently, the Colleges of Liberal Arts, Education, Business, Dentistry, and Optometry were also established one after another. [2] [1] It began operating as a university in 1930 and in 1932 was converted into a corporation for financial reasons. [1] Its name was then changed to Centro Escolar University, which still holds today. [1] In 2009, the School of Law and Jurisprudence was established. [10]

[2] [11] It was removed from the Mendiola campus in the mid-1990s and in Malolos in 2004 after nearly 100 years open. [12] It was revived starting in the 2014-2015 academic year as the Centro Escolar Integrated School (CEIS) and is offered in Manila, Malolos, and Makati. [13]

There have been seven presidents in the history of CEU: Librada Avelino (1907-1934); Carmen de Luna (1934-1962); Pilar Hidalgo-Lim (1962-1972); Dionisio Tiongco (1972-1992); Lourdes Talagechauz (1992-2002); Rosita L. Navarro (2002-2006); and Cristina Padolina (2006-present). [1] [10] [12]
