University of Cebu’s struggle

In 2002, University of Cebu faced great challenged. This challenge made the institution became one of the strongest institution in Central Cebu. It was April of the same year when the entire high school building was burnt. Facing with this challenge was not only felt by the president but also teachers and students as well. I am a newly hired teacher then. I really felt the needs of the students. We just hold our classes at the lobby using long wooden table with chair. Each classes were just separated using a bulletin board. You can just imagine how the noise destructs the student’s learning. In other words, the place is not conducive for learning.

However, University is a big institution and I am sure that it has a business insurance. Building a new infrastructure was just easy for them. In just a year, UC erected new face of high school building. All of us were happy and enjoyed its new classroom and facilities.
