This article explains the development of academic instruction in the arts and crafts in Mexico during the nineteenth century. Thus, we seek to demonstrate that schools of arts and crafts were blamed for the training of future workers and citizens industrious. However, such plans around schools had limited success in their task. This last argument will be seen through the example of Jalisco. As will be difficulties he went through the "Escuela de Artes y Oficios de Jalisco". To demonstrate this situation, resort to primary sources: letters of application and departure of students on campus, as well as written statements from school officials and government. Thus, it will display the main actors in this plot: the state guard and subjects destined to become good men
