Our Lady of the Rosary University

The Universidad del Rosario (Spanish: Colegio Mayor de NuestraSeñora del Rosario - Universidad del Rosario ) is a university originally founded on Roman Catholic principles, in 1653 by Fray Cristobal de Torres. Located in Bogotá, Colombia, due to its important place in Colombian history, it is known as "The Cradle of the Republic". Most faculties reside at theCloister, the main campus located in the historic-geographical centre of Bogotá. Nowadays the institution is based on secular ideas and remains very influential in Colombian culture and public life. At least 28 of Colombia's presidents have been students of this university. It has influenced and participated in very important transitional processes like the revolution for the independence fromSpain and the drafting of the Political National Constitution of 1991. As a curious fact, one of the most important 1886 Constitution's Supreme Court (1936), the so-called golden court, was composed in its majority by lawyers from the Faculty of Jurisprudence

Original constitutions of the University, were written by its founder Fray Cristobal de Torres and published by Crístobal de Araque Ponce de León, then Chancellor.

The founderestablished the Calatrava Cross as the symbol of the University and issued the Constitutions, which remain the governing documents of the school. The University of El Rosario has always been "from" and "for" the students, established on the basis of "UniversitasScholarium".
