description This work  has been   done  by investigating Augustinian and  Vasco de Quiroga´s teaching Work in Mexico. He´s still being called “Tata Vasco”. He was  founder of towns, schools and hospitals in Mexico, which were later called “reducciones”.Vasco de Quiroga was born in Madrigal de las Altas Torres between 1470 and 1479. Being a great jurist and listener, he founded the Santa Fe de la Laguna institution with some Augustinian´s help in 1533. He was appointed as Michoacán’s Bishop in 1536, where he made a fine wok by founding villages, hospitals and  schools such  as San Nicolás, first a seminary and college, and later into a university. He Was also a great natives` rights defender and  opponent to slavery. His message still appears today in Vasco de Quiroga University’s motto:  “Teaching by truth”, and the same in its mission. It encourages people to believe in Vasco de Quiroga´s catholic humanism in order to change society by means of education.“Tata Vasco” was a pioneer educating native people in Nueva España virreinato. His essay   “People with schools and hospitals” seemed to be a utopia. Later, it became  a model for “reducciones”, followed by Franciscans and Jesuits inParaguay.

El objeto de este trabajo es resaltar la actuación docente de los agustinos en México, con Vasco de Quiroga, “Tata Vasco”, fundador de pueblos con escuelas y hospitales, un anticipo de lo que luego se llamó “reducciones.” Se ha utilizado una metodología analítica, complementaria y evolutiva dentro de la investigación, que desde hace unos 40 años se está  realizando para la historia de la Orden de San Agustín en Hispanoamérica, teniendo en cuenta la bibliografía existente y la revisión de los archivos. El colegio de San Nicolás se mantuvo floreciente durante la colonia y fue la basede  la universidad michoacanesa de San Nicolás de Hidalgo. En ese colegio se formaron muchos de los 200 sacerdotes que había en su diócesis, junto otros tantos religiosos,que enseñaban y predicaban el Evangelio en castellano y en las lenguas aborígenes. Fue un destacado promotor de la educación indígena. Palabras clave: Reducciones, Educación Indígena, Utopía.
