Presidential Decree, replacing a Franciscan convent. Incorporated to the
National University in 1887, the institute was transferred in March 1887 to the
Society of Jesus. Suspended in 1891 by National Decree No. 452 because of the "lack
of subordination to discipline by the students" , the institute was renamed in
1897 Liceo del Quindo, and eventually closed in 1912 and replaced by an Escuela
Superior where agriculture and mechanics were taught, re-established the next
year, the Liceo regained its autonomy in 1915. The institute was nationalized on
1 October 1939. Institución Educativa Académico was eventually established by

The coat of arms of the Universidad Católica de Colombia is described in
Chapter 2.4. of the Manual de Imagen Institucional, last revised in 2016.
Designed in 1970 by the philosopher Ángel María Quintero Hernández, funding
member and author of the declaration of principles of the institute, the coat of
arms was modernized in 2008. The coat of arms is composed of three horizontal
stripes, blue, white, and yellow. Blue and white are associated with the
Immaculate Conception of Virgin Mary. Heraldically, blue represents time
projection and the infinite, while white, equivalent to silver, represents
purity and honesty as features of the university. Yellow recalls the flag of the
Holy See, emphasizing the adhesion of the university to papacy and to St.
Peter's chair. Heraldically, yellow, equivalent to gold, is a symbol of the
spiritual resources proper to academia, maximum when inspired by the Catholic
principles. The shield's field is charged by a Cross of Lorraine, a symbol of
the triumph of truth over lie, of good over evil, of life over death, and of
liberty over totalitarianism. Heraldically, the smaller arms of the cross
represents the monogram "INRI", which is a recognition of the royalty of Jesus
Christ. The shield is surmounted by the motto "SAPIENTIA AEDIFICAVIT SIBI DOMUM"
(Wisdom hath built herself a house; Proverbs, 9,1).
The colors are
prescribed in Chapter 3 of the Manual de Imagen Institucional as:
Golden

Universidad Católica de Manizales (UCM) was established on 11 February 1954,
as Universidad Católica Femenina, by Sister María de la Santísima Trinidad, a
member of the Dominican Sisters of the Presentation of the Blessed Virgin, a
congregation founded in 1696 by Marie Poussepin (1653-1744; beatified on 20
November 1994 by Pope John Paul II and awarded the title of "Charity's Social
Apostle").
http://www.ucm.edu.co/, UCM
website
The flag of UCM is horizontally divided blue-white-green with a
red fimbriation and the symbol taken from the university's coat of arms in the
center. Blue is the color of the congregation managing UCM, as the color of its
patron saint, the Blessed Virgin. White is the color of the coffee flower and of
the snow-capped mountains ("nevados"). Green is the color of the coffee foliage
and of the land's greenness. Red is the color of the ripe coffee berries and of
the youth's ardent blood.
http://www.ucm.edu.co/la-universidad/simbolos-institucionales/, UCM website
The symbol of UCM is made of a French shield, recalling the country of
origin of Marie Poussepin, the founder of the congregation managing UCM. The
green background symbolizes hope, creativity, constancy and intrepidity; in the
middle is placed the graphic element, made of a cross, symbol of Jesus Christ,
of a "U" for "Universality" and "University", and of a "C" for "Catholic" and
"Christian". This graphic element was used as the university's coat of arms
until 1998.
The blue bordure, as a symbol of protection, favor and
reward, uses the blue color of the Blessed Virgin. Blue also symbolizes justice,
sweetness, loyalty and piety. The red fimbriation represents strength, valor,
fidelity, joy and honor. Red is also the color of the coffee berries. The golden
scroll is a symbol of nobleness and charity. The motto "Verdad Caridad" reads
"Truth Charity".

Law 48 issued in 1945 prescribed the foundation of four
"Colegios Mayores" of Cundinamarca (in Bogotá),
Antioquia (in Medellín), Bolívar (in Carthagena) and Cauca (in
Popayán). The most recent of the four institutes, "Colegio
Mayor del Cauca" was inaugurated on 13 November 1967 as
"Colegio Mayor de Cultura Popular del Cauca".
The flag of the institute,
as shown graphically and described on the website
of the institute, is vertically divided blue-yellow-blue with the
institute's
logotype in the top of the yellow stripe. The first two stripes
seem to be of the same width and the third one much wider.
Yellow is the colour of the sun, of light, life, action and
power. It symbolizes strength, will and stimulation. It
represents the human intelligence enlightened by the divine
revelation. According to Vincent Van Gogh, yellow represents
"friendship and love".
Blue represents intelligence and deep emotions. It is the colour
of the infinite and of the dreams. It symbolizes wisdom,
loyalty, eternal truth and immortality.
The first logotype of the institute was prescribed by Decree No. 019 of the Board of
Directors, adopted on 1 November 2001. It represents "El Camarín" framed in a white rectangle with a blue border
outlined in yellow and charged with the name of the institute in
white capital letters.
"El Camarín", lit. the Cabinet, was designed in 1760
by the German architect Simon Schendherr on the facade of the
second floor of the Church of the Incarnation. It represents the
communication between the inside and outside words. "El
Camarín" has three windows, two rectangle on the sides and
one circular in the main axis, symbolizing a large eye always
watching the ever changing cosmos.
Ivan Sache, 16 December 2008
The current logotype was adopted in 2009 by the Board of Directors. It
features a schematic, blue representation of "El Camarín" placed on a yellow
background and framed with a blue rectangle with rounded-off angles.

In 2008 the Colegio Mayor del Cauca evolves from an Institución Tecnológica
(English: Technological Institution) to an Institución Universitaria (English:
University Institution) (source:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uppV_VfAvmI) and has started to use the
initial UNIMAYOR (standing for Universidad Mayor, instead of Colegio Mayor).
The meaning of the flag is as follows (translated from the original in
Spanish):
"Meaning of (the) colors:
Yellow: It is the color of light, of
the sun, of life, action, power. It symbolizes strength, will and encouragement.
It represents human intelligence illuminated by divine revelation. (It is an)
Intellectual color. According to Vincet Van Gogh yellow "represents friendship
and love". It is a tolerable and cheerful color in small areas.
Blue: It is
related to intelligence and deep emotions. It is the color of the infinite, of
dreams and of the marvelous and symbolizes wisdom, fidelity, eternal truth and
immortality. The blue color does not change with distance and can be used
without fatigue in large areas"
