Saint Paul University, also referred to by its acronym SPUD or SPU Dumaguete, is a private Roman Catholic research non-profit coeducational basic and higher education institution run by the Sisters of St. Paul of Chartres in Dumaguete, Philippines. It was founded by the Paulinian Sisters on October 29, 1904.
It is one of 40 schools owned, managed, and operated by the Sisters of St. Paul of Chartres (SPC) in the Philippines. It offers basic, undergraduate and graduate education.
It is one of the seven campuses comprising the St. Paul University System.
The university traces its origins to the coming of the Sisters of Saint Paul of Chartres (SPC) to the Philippines. On October 29, 1904, the said sisters who came from Vietnam arrived in the Philippines and established the first Saint Paul's school in the Philippines in Dumaguete, Negros Oriental. The seven sisters were Mother Marthe de Saint Paul, Superior Sr. Marie Louise du Sacre Coeur Sr. Ange Marie Sr. Anne de la Croix Sr. Charles de Genes Sr. Catherine, and Sr. Josephine. [2] The institution they established initially offered elementary education. High school was offered starting in 1920. The first high school graduation took place in 1925. Collegiate courses were offered years later. For many years, the institution operated as Saint Paul College of Dumaguete. In 2004, the year of its centennial celebration, the college was granted university status becoming one of the four universities in Dumaguete.
On January 9, 1905, the new school opened with 30 girls (15 of whom were aged 15 to 20), four of them boarders, and six boys. Children, women, and young men came to the school for religious instruction. Besides the regular academic courses, there were supplementary ones in music, drawing, painting, French, sewing, and embroidery. The medium of instruction was English. However, since the Americans had been in the Philippines for only five years, very few pupils were acquainted with the language. Hence, the Sisters were obliged to learn Visayan and Spanish to be able to communicate with their charges.
