Silliman University in Dumaguete City

In 2001, Silliman University celebrated its Centennial. It was a big affair with many alumni from all the corners of the globe making the journey home after having been away for many, many years. In 1901, American missionaries established what is now known as Silliman University. Silliman is well-known for the quality of education which it gives. Many of its graduates hold important and prestigious positions in government and the private sector. A good many of graduates have also gone abroad to hold important positions in banking and business. Many of these graduates made this historic visit to celebrate with the City of Dumaguete and Silliman University a hundred years of excellent service in the field of Education.

Dumaguete City is very lucky to be the site of Silliman University which sits prominently close to the business and the downtown area of Dumaguete City. Coming in from the Harbor of Dumaguete City, one immediately sees Silliman University amid the centuries-old acacia trees that bear silent witness to the long years of service that Silliman University has rendered to the community ot Dunaguete City.
