MCMI (1901), traces back the magnanimous year when the Board of Foreign Missions of the Presbyterian Church through our founders Dr. David Sutherland Hibbard and his wife Mrs. Laura Crooks-Hibbard declared the opening of Silliman Institute. The industrial school for 15 boys beside the sea from the 10,000$-worth of gold donated by Dr. Horace Brinsmade Silliman, the institution thrived and became the very first university outside of Manila in 1938. Presently, it is the mission of Silliman University to educate the whole person within the context of a Christian environment guided by their motto: VIA, VERITAS, VITA (the Way, the Truth, and the Life). In the pursuit towards service excellence, “still the faith and truth she gave us, will remain our guiding star.”
