The Divine Word College of San Jose is a private, coeducational Catholic institution of higher learning run by the Society of the Divine Word or SVD in San Jose, Occidental Mindoro, Philippines. It holds the distinction of being the first and oldest educational institution in Mindoro island, even predating the island-province's separation into two provinces by five years, in 1950.[13][2]
Established as Southern Mindoro Academy[1] in the middle of 1945 by Gabriel Fabrero Fabella,[14][15] a lawyer and prominent historian, it offered secondary education which became exclusive to boys upon its incorporation into the Society of Divine Word (SVD) in 1960. It was renamed to Divine Word College a year after its acquisition by the SVD, and has since offered complete academic courses from basic to tertiary education and postgraduate and vocational programs. Its patron saints are St. Arnold Janssen, the founder of the Society of the Divine Word, and St. Joseph Freinademetz, a missionary priest in China.

In 1945, when World War II just ended, a visionary man from Romblon, Atty. Gabriel F. Fabella, a history professor at the University of the Philippines, came to San Jose. Together with his newfound friends, he envisioned the opening of a school to provide a private secondary education in San Jose.
On August 8, 1945, Southern Mindoro Academy was born and had its opening of classes on the same day in Central with 30 freshmen and 8 sophomores. The original incorporators of SMA were Gabriel Fabella, Raul Leuterio, Isabelo Abeleda, Sr., Cipriano Liboro and Cosme Tria.
The following year, in 1946, the Americans constructed an airstrip in San Jose Pandurucan and the people started to transfer to San Jose. Likewise, the owners of SMA decided to transfer the said school to San Jose and bought a portion of the land owned by the Soldevillas where the present school is now located.
SMA operated for 15 years. In 1960, due to financial constraints, the owners of SMA decided to sell it. Mr. Mena R. Quinto was instrumental in the SVD's acquisition of SMA. Fr. Carlos Brendel, the SVD representative and the parish priest of San Jose Pandurucan, bought SMA. Thus, in May in this same year the SVDs became the new owners of SMA. Still using the name SMA, the secondary department became an exclusive school for boys where St. Joseph became an exclusive school for girls.
Since then, additional undergraduate courses were offered by the school and eventually it got the government recognition for the following courses: Diploma in Junior Secretarial (1978), Bachelor of Science in Accountancy (1993), Two-year Computer Secretarial Courses (1997), Two-year Association in Computer Science (1997), Bachelor of Science in Computer Science (2001).
In the graduate level, DWCSJ started to offer Master of Arts in Education Major in Administration and Supervision as an extension of the Divine Word College of Calapan. Later, the school offered Master of Business Administration also as an extension of DWCC.
On June 29, 1993, government recognition to operate MBA independent of DWCC was obtained. Likewise, on March 15, 1995, government recognition to offer MA in Education independent of DWCC was granted.
In the same year, 1995, the school started to offer three levels of pre-elementary courses: Nursery, Kindergarten, and Preparatory.
Further, starting school year 2000-2001 several academic programs were simultaneously offered by DWCSJ; the AB in Communication, Bachelor of Science in Hotel and Restaurant Management (BSHRM) and Bachelor of Science in Tourism (BST). In the school year 2005-2006, the Bachelor of Science in Nursing was also offered. And Bachelor of Science in Accounting Technology (BSAct) and Bachelor of Science in Information Technology (BSIT) were offered in the school year 2009-2010.

Some out-of-school Mangyans of different ages living in far-flung regions of Sitio Bamban and Paclolo are taught at the basic education level using modular approach through the Indigenous Learning System, a type of Alternative Learning System (ALS).[42] The program is headed by its director, Bro.

College symbols and traditions[]
Official Seal[]
The Seal of the Divine Word College of San Jose is the official instrument used by the school as its official symbol and identity, and to certify its legal public documents and publications. The seal used when the school was originally established as Southern Mindoro Academy in 1945 features a map of Mindoro island over a white backdrop, enclosed by a circular white band with inner and outer black rings in which the then school abbreviation (SMA), its founding year (1945), and the name of the town of San Jose were inscribed.
When the academy was handed over to the Society of the Divine Word in 1960, the school adopted religious iconography, such as the cross over a mountain which symbolizes the Catholic Faith in Occidental Mindoro, and an eagle which symbolically represents St. John the Evangelist from whom the school was named.[44] In the middle was a bend sinister dividing the shield in halves and bearing the school's acronym, DWC, which stands for Divine Word College. Over time, the seal was restyled to include a banderole emblazoned with the institution's original motto, "In the Light of the Word", derived from a passage in the Gospel of John.
Its latest iteration features a wedge-top escutcheon divided into four quadrants. In addition to the religious symbols, the seal now includes a Tamaraw on the first quarter, a bovine endemic to Mindoro island, and the logo of the Society of the Divine Word below it on the third quadrant. Superimposed in the middle of the shield is the college nickname, DWCSJ, which includes "SJ" as the initials for San Jose to distinguished it from other SVD schools in the province. The motto was also changed to its present form, "Witness to the Word".
DWCSJ Hymn[]
Divine Word College of San Jose Hymn is the college's official alma mater song. The lyrics was written by Demetrio Maglalang, an alumnus of the college. The melody for the song was composed by Rev. Fr. Erasio Flores, SVD, former assistant director of the school and Major Superior for SVD Philippine Central (PHC) region in Mindoro during the late 70's.[45]
Lyrics[]
The following lists the complete lyrical text to the song, written as a poem in English:
"We saw thy gleaming glory shine
From out the isle and mountain clod
We hear thy voice, Oh word Divine
We come, Oh Pioneer of God!
Refrain
Rise, sons and daughters, sons of day
Raise high your voices, noble and free
Oh sing the praises, sing the lay
Oh sing the name DWC!
We seek the wisdom of the Word
Like pilgrims lost in aliens sod
Unsheathe for us life's conquering sword
For us, Oh Pioneer of God!
(Repeat Refrain)
Thou standst the fount of age-old lore
God's citadel through rain and flood
Thy name by land and far flung shore
Resounds, Oh Pioneer of God!"

Initiated by the Local Government Unit (LGU), it is a nationwide "walk for a cause" campaign that aims to raise funds for the out-of-school youth and provide scholarship grants to deserving but marginalized students. The fundraising campaign was started in 1972 by Alay Lakad Foundation, Inc. and has since been observed by various sectors around the country.
