This yearbook documents the academic year 1950–1951 at Silliman University in Dumaguete City, Philippines. The document is historically significant as it is dedicated to Acting President Felix G. Gaudiel, whom the staff identifies as the "first" Filipino to serve as the institution's highest executive. This dedication marks a pivotal moment in the school's history, as it was established and previously presided over by Americans. The yearbook provides a comprehensive record of the administration, faculty, and students across all colleges and departments, including Law, Theology, Arts and Sciences, and Engineering, offering a primary source view into post-World War II higher education and the beginning of a leadership transition in a major Philippine university.
