Midget Sillimanian. Vol. I No. 3, December 15, 1950

About this record

Midget Sillimanian, a student newspaper from the Elementary School Department of Silliman University in Dumaguete City, Philippines. Dated December 15, 1950, it serves as a primary source detailing student life and curriculum in the immediate post-World War II era. The publication's stated purpose was to help students improve their English and penmanship, reflecting the academic focus of the time. The paper covers activities like the annual Christmas party, a room decoration contest, and mentions student-led initiatives such as a food sale held to raise money for classroom painting. It includes official messages from the University President (Felix G. Gaudiel) and the Elementary School Principal (Francisco P. Dinsay), connecting the local school life to the broader university administration and history.

The material is considered valuable. It is advised that researchers use digital copy rather than physical copy for preservation purposes.
