Loyola), Sampaloc, Manila. After four years, it was renamed Philippine School of Commerce. In 1952, its name was again changed to Philippine College of Commerce until its conversion to university status in April 1978 when it was given its present name, the Polytechnic University of the Philippines.</DIV></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.philippine-trivia.com/Institutions-Society/Polytechnic-University-of-the-Philippines.html">Over the last 100 years, PUP has grown into one of the country's leading state universities.</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.philippine-trivia.com/Institutions-Society/Polytechnic-University-of-the-Philippines.html"><DIV title="" class="jwts_tabbertab "><H2><A name="advtab" href="javascript:alert('This link contains javascript.
