Universidad de Nariño is the descendant of a college founded
in 1712 by the Jesuits in San Juan de Pasto, to teach Latin,
Spanish and Religious History; the college was closed in 1767
when King Charles III decreed the expelling of the Jesuits from
America. The college reemerged in 1791 as Real Colegio Seminario,
transformed in 1822 into a military camp, PAsto supporting at the
time the Royalists. In 1827, the President of the Republic,
General Francisco de Paula de Santander, decreed the founding of
the Colegio Provincial; this was considered as a gesture of
reconciliation between the town and the power. The college was
renamed Colegio San Augustin in 1832, as a tribute to the
Augustinian monks that funded it. Colegio San Augustin is
considered as the true forerunner of the today's university.
Renamed Colegio Académico in the 1850s, the college was made a
university by Presidential Decree No 726 of 11 September 1889,
confirmed in 1894 by Decree No. 30 of the Assembly of the
Department of Cauca. The university was transferred to the newly
created Department of Nariño in 1904.
