Academic Integration Plan 1976. Formulation, Development And Repercussions.

Abstract

As of 1973, the agreements obtained from the Architecture Restructuring Congress
(CRA) began to be implemented. At the end of 1974 a dean would be elected who had
held the position of interim dean since the crisis of leadership that occurred in 1973.
By 1975 some disagreements had begun to emerge, which became more intense.
With the tragedy of the earthquake of February 4, 1976, differences were put aside, and ranks were closed to respond to the emergency. Almost immediately, the Academic Integration Plan (PIA) would be proposed to create the bases that would guide the new optional action. In this new approach, the philosophy and criteria emanating from the CRA were retaken. However, as time progressed, differences began to emerge again that would complicate its execution. This work shows the main ideological and academic bases promoted by the PIA, the application mechanisms followed, the evaluation and adjustment process for a new Plan during the second semester of that year, as well as the confrontations that began to occur and that little by little. little, they would lead to more serious conflicts, resignations and dismissals.
