St Paul University QC, then a Novitiate of the Sisters of St Paul of Chartres, was occupied by the Japanese during the second world war and served as a garrison. The main building was burned down before liberation. A war memorial stands on the campus to signify this inglorious part of Philippine history.
But, like a Phoenix bird rising from the ashes, the ruin transformed into a school, now a member of a university system.
Here the finer side of life - the antithesis of war, is shown through the arts - music and drama.
