90 years of Leyte Normal University
By Don Eliseo Lucero Prisno III
Sat 15th October 2011
 
It was a sentimental homecoming.  Tacloban City has been my world for my entire childhood and teenage years.  It is the place of San Juanico Bridge and MacArthur landing site.  I spent a big part of my formative years in the islands of Leyte and Samar.  I had my entire education from grade 1 to fourth year high school at Leyte Normal University (LNU).

I have lots of fond memories of this university.  I was enrolled here as it was an affordable public institution yet offers very high educational standards.  I was lucky as this was the best elementary and high school in the region. It was also convenient studying at LNU since my mother worked just across the street in a government office (GSIS).
