None of the contents can be verified - the University's web site is down and apparently has been for some time. And based on the article history, the content is a stripped-down version of a probable copyright violation. Barrylb (talk) 06:56, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep and cleanup as necessary. A quick search shows that the university is verifiably real and still open as of 2007. The history section appears to be a copy-and-paste, but its substance and other parts of the article can be sourced from 3rd parties. Universities are inherently notable with or without a working website. • Gene93k (talk) 17:58, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep This is a real, verifiable university. One does not need online sources for verification. --Polaron | Talk 18:26, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep and cleanup, per precedent consensus that universities are inherently notable. The article is in a poor state, but that's an argument for improvement, not an argument for deletion. — mholland (talk) 18:52, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep per Gene. If content can't be verified then remove unverifiable information and make it a stub. — Noetic  Sage  03:09, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep Per this pdf file the government of the Philippines has audited Bicol university, which is evidence that it exists.  Universities are generally notable, even if their articles need improvement.  Cardamon (talk) 07:23, 25 November 2007 (UTC)
