St. Jude College was established in honor of St. Jude Thaddeus, the Apostle and Patron Saint of the Hopeful and the true Christian spirit's embodiment. Through its allied health services, it started as the St. Jude Maternity Clinic in 1950. Faced with the community's growing health needs and the breakthroughs and advances in allied medical sciences, the founders, Dr. Ramon D. Atienza, Jr. and his wife, Dr. Felicidad, Calip-Atienza, expanded the Maternity Clinic from a two-story building to a five-story building with a 120-bed capacity. Later, they built an eight-story building to house the School of Nursing. The two edifices were inaugurated on the feast day of St. Jude Thaddeus on October 28, 1968. As a result, the Maternity Clinic was elevated to a College's status for consistently producing outstanding students and exemplary topnotchers in the licensure or board examinations since 1971.
