Aduna akoy paboritong sudan
sa matag takna sa pagkaon
gustong iluwa apan 
kinahanglan tunlon.

Sama sa paborito kong bisti
nga nangalimyon sa kahumot
ang makapanimaho niini magkanayon,
"kinsa'y gimanuhot?"
Ang makakita niini,
dagway magkulismaot.

Sa ilang alimpatakan,
pagkamaanyag ning akong naatubang,
pagkahayag sa bisti pero dili bulawan.
Matahum unta pero daw lagum,
ang kolor sidlak pero makapagtung!

Pagkaparat!
Pagkaparat!
Sa matag takna daw gisawsaw sa dagat!
Kanusa
Kanusa pa man?
Makatilaw ug laing sudan!

What is Cebu Normal University?

Cebu Normal University (Cebuano: Unibersidad Normal sa Sugbo), also referred to by its acronym CNU, is a state research university in Cebu City, Cebu, Philippines established in 1902. (Hipon)

CNU is designated by the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) as Center of Excellence (COE) in both Nursing Education and Teacher Education.

CNU was established in 1902 by Act No. 74 of the Philippine Commission as a summer institute of the Philippine Normal University (PNS, then a normal school). It was then called “Cebu Normal School” and was the located at Colegio Logarta building (later Hijos del Pueblo) at the Colon Street by which the Cebu provincial government pays the amount of ₱200 monthly. (Hipon)

In 1906, the school became an adjunct to the then Cebu Provincial High School (now Abellana National School) and transferred to the new site. In 1924, the school became independent of PNS, obtained the normal school status and moved to its current site in Osmeña Boulevard, Cebu City. In 1926, it produced its first batch of graduates as a new educational institution. (Hipon)

In 1952, the two-year general curriculum adopted in 1946 was changed to the four-year Elementary Education Curriculum, which was later changed to Bachelor of Science in education (BSE – Elementary Education) in 1954. This led CNS to become a tertiary institution. In 1959, BSE was changed into Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education. The Graduate School was opened in 1960 and produced its first M.A. graduate in 1966 – Rosemary P. Gellor. The Liberal Arts department (now College of Arts and Sciences) was established in 1977 and the department of Nursing (now College of Nursing) was created in 1982. (Hipon)

The school was then renamed as “Cebu Normal College” in 1966, then to “Cebu State College” in 1976 in accordance to P.D. 944. In the 1980s and 1990s the school’s population increased rapidly and new buildings were constructed which now house the three colleges of the school: College of Teacher Education (CTE), College of Arts and Sciences (CAS), and the College of Nursing (CN), as well as the University Museum, the Integrated Laboratory School (ILS), the Graduate School (GS) and Balay Alumni.

On June 27, 1998, Cebu State College attained university status and was named Cebu Normal University (CNU) under Republic Act No. 8688 signed by President Fidel V. Ramos. Under the Republic Act. 7104, CNU was designated as Panrehiyong Sentro ng Wikang Filipino for Region VII.^[5]

In 2005 and 2008, CNU had opened two extension campuses in Balamban and Medellin in Cebu. The university is Region 7’s Center of Teacher Development and in August 2009 it became Region 7‘s sole Center of Excellence in Nursing.

On June 13, 2011, CNU celebrated its 100th Centennial celebration, delayed by nine years. The National Historical Commission confirmed its creation in 1902 with Samuel MacClintock as the first principal which was not known by the previous university administration. A strict review of MacClintock’s annual report and upon the approval of the Malacañang Palace of the university logo, the administration was convinced that the university was indeed founded in 1902.
