Torrijos' " is based at Falan, Department of Tolima. Founded
in 1942 as "Escuela Vocacional Agrícola de Falan", the

the treaty solved the border controversy between Colombia and
Peru. Fore more details see wikipedia.

The College was founded in 1946 as Escuela (School) Federico
Ozanam. I have not been able to find out where it is located,
however. Frédéric Ozanam (Milano, 1813 - Marseilles, 1853) was
a French historian and writer. In 1833, he founded the St.
Vincent-de-Paul Society. He rejoined the French Republic in 1848
and founded with Lacordaire the Christian-Democrat newspaper
L'Ere Nouvelle (The New Era, 1848-1849).
The flag of the College is described but not shown as
horizontally divided yellow-blue (amarillo-azul). Therefore I
have used default 2:3 proportion in my image.

"Instituto Nacional de Educación Media Diversificada
'Felipe Pérez'" (INEM) was founded in February 1972 in
Pereira, Department of Risaralda.
The institute is named after the politican, lawmaker, writer and
journalist Felipe Pérez (1830-1891), successively appointed
Governor of Zipaquirá and Cundinamarca, Senator of the Republic,
President of the Congress, General, Chief of Staff of the Army
etc...
The flag of INEM,
according to a photo and the description available on the website
of the institute, is white with the emblem of INEM in the
middle. The flag was designed by the Department of Physical
Education in 1975 for the first Interinstitute Games.
The emblem of INEM is a white triangle outlined in
black-yellow-green, charged with the red letters "INEM"
surmonted with a yellow device. "FELIPE PEREZ" is
written in white letters on a blue scroll placed under the
emblem, under which a second, yellow scroll bears
"PEREIRA" in black letters. The whole is inscribed in a
red ring with white writing, probably the full name of the
institute.

"Instituto de Educación Preescolar La Abeja Maya". In
1992, the Secretary of Education of Bogotá recognized (Decree
No. 1280) the new name of "Colegio Fervan", designed
after the name of the founder, Lety Fernández Vanegas.
The flag of the college can be seen on photos
taken during the Communication Day 2007.
As described on the website of
the institute, the flag is horizontally divided white-green
with the emblem of the institute in the middle. The two equal
horizontal stripes are a symbol of balance. White is a symbol of
perfection, purity and peace. Dark green represents life, respect
for the natural environment, hope and tranquillity.
The emblem of the institute is inscribed in a ring, symbol of
perfection, of red colour, symbol of force and vitality, charged
with the name and motto of the college ("Educacion para el
futuro", in Spanish, "Education for the future")

Universidad Francisco de Paula Santander - 5:9 (apparently)
flag, horizontally divided white-black-orange-light green
(12:1:1:1). The name of the University, in black, is placed in
the white stripe, above the logo of the University.
Flag shown on <www.ufps.edu.co>,
located by Dov Gutterman, which says (in Spanish):
'There is obviously an historical gap: we don't know according to
which process the flag which currently flies in the Benefactors'
Park was adopted as the official flag of the University.'

The flag of the Franciscan College Fray Rafael de la Serna is
horizontally divided yellow-green. From the flying flag shown on
<www.frayrafael.edu.co>,
located by Dov Gutterman, the default proportion of the
flag seems to be 1:2.
The college was founded in 1941 in Medellin,
Antioquia and its first name was Instituto Cristobal Colon. By
ministerial order #1610 from 6 June 1953, the college was renamed
as a tribute to the Franciscan friar who founded the University
of Antioquia. YYellow symbolizes the spiritual resources, spirit
and the department of Antioquia. Green
symbolizes the hope in the youth and the exuberant vegetation of
Antioquia. It is said that the dimensions of the flag are
precise, but not what they are indeed.
