Stockholders of the University of Bohol (formerly Rafael Palma College) elected the new members of the Board of Trustees for administrative year 2010-2011, during the annual stockholders meeting held last September 24, 2010 at the university Instructional Media Center (IMC).

In his report to the stockholders, UB President Victoriano B. Tirol, Jr., disclosed the increase in enrolment in the first semester this school year amidst the impact of global financial crisis. Inspite of the consistent academic performance in producing board, bar and other licensure examination passers and topnotchers, Tirol reported the continuous upgrading in the quality of instruction and physical plant facilities. With the recent achievements of the students in the regional, national and international competitions and events , the university president described a vibrant student community in the campus. In his address, Tirol announced the official invitation of the Japanese government to Dr. Janice B. Tirol, SPS Dean, as facilitator in the 2010 Ship for South East Asian Youth Program (SSYEAP) on the topic School Education in the ASEAN-Japan countries. He also noted the forging of a memorandum of understanding between Kyungin Women’s College in Korea and the University of Bohol. UB hosted two batches of English Language Training Program from June to August with 60 Korean students participating and 30 UB students coaching the foreign students individually.
On the aspect of corporate social responsibility, Pres.

The College of Nursing through Dean Isabelita Margate received appreciation from the stockholders for producing 207 new nurses.

In closing , Atty. Victoriano B. Tirol, Jr. called on the stockholders to move forward in offering quality education at all levels and at all cost. “ To maintain academic prestige and respect, the University’s thrust should always be quality education. All other considerations are only secondary. Let us not rest on our laurels and be contended by the glorious years of the past. Instead, we work harder and fast as we owe this to the people who entrusted the lives of their children to our care ”, says Atty. Tirol. Quoting Saint Paul in his letter to the Galatians, the university president encouraged the owners of the university: “let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we shall reap a harvest if we do not give up.” (Galatians 6:9).
To date, UB is now 64 years old; 25 years as a college and 39 years as a University. It gained university recognition on December 11, 1971. Next academic year the institution will celebrate its Ruby Jubilee.
