History and News
This edition is a special tribute honoring the 40 years that have passed since the University Institution
began its worked celebrated on march 2, 2010 at the municipal theatre in Santiago de Cali.
A tribute to the commitment and efforts to all the people who made part of this big formation, placement and
recognition process of the UNIAJC in The Valle del Cauca, its collaborators, professors, directives,
students and of course graduates (whom make part of our image in the most remarkable enterprises and
companies).
Let's notice that nowadays young people are being more and more attracted by technological and
audiovisuals media so we have lost some ground in regards of written language.
There fore our intention is to make people know by images and artistic representations (drawing,
caricature) the history and present of our institution.
We hope that you get to know the history and enjoy as much as we did of these pages.

Antonio José Camacho
Jurist, educator and visionary of the industry
Antonio Jose Camacho was born on the 17
February 1895 in a modest house of the
neighborhood Vallano, a sector of Cali which
name gets lost in the spider webs of the time.
Pedro y Visitation's son.
He was 16 years old when he enlisted in
Santa Librada School in 1991. This
generation of boys did epoch for his zeal of
wisdom in a moment in which the country was
trying to go out of the lag in which his frequent
civil wars had plunged it.
His education suffered all the vicissitudes to
which every man who is born with the will to
crown his goals, in the middle of the poverty is
exposed. In 1914 he got a scholarship to
study in the major College of Our lady of the
Rosario, in Bogota. In 1927 the Universidad
Libre gave the title of Doctor of Law, social
sciences and politics.
Back in Cali, and with desires to serve his
people, there was named by Buga's Top
Court judge of the circuit of Cartago.
His worry was such for the education of the
youth, that being a councilman of Cali he
presented a project to create a nursery of
education of arts and trades, in which the
young persons, whose economic level was
not allowing them to deal university studies,
could be educated.
That's how the Municipal School of arts and
trades was created, which has given the fruits
that have been established as some of the
best institutions of the department.
He died in the fullness of his powers, 50 years
after age, May 18, 1945.
