DIAZ JARAMILLO, José Abelardo. The Rosary School Strike and University Reform in Colombia (1930). Anu.hist.reg.front. [online]. 2017, vol.22, n.2, pp.193-215. ISSN 0122-2066.  https://doi.org/10.18273/revanu.v22n2-2017008.

In this article we analyze the students strike of the College of Our Lady of the Rosary, which took place in 1930. The importance of this conflict analysis is that brought to the political debate the relevance of the university reform, a claim driven unsuccessfully by Colombian students since 1919. From the reconstruction of the actors appeals and the description of the resulting political tensions of the conflict, the symbolic value of Bogotá’s university students is emphasized through their participation in the officer’s elections of the high educational institutions, as in the Rosary School in 1930. The interpretation of the strike is done from a critical reading of different sources: periodical publications and official documents of the time, and secondary literature of the Rosary School and university reform in Colombia.

Keywords : Bogotá; Colegio del Rosario; Student Strike; University Reform.
