Biography
[edit]Rubio Ruiz was born in Santa Rosalía, Baja California Sur in 1932.[1] He later moved to the state capital of La Paz, where he completed his secondary studies before earning his teaching certificate at the Urban Normal School in 1951.[1][2][3] After that, he graduated from the Higher Normal School of Mexico with a licentiate degree in education.[1][2] He taught at primary and secondary schools before serving an administrative role at the Urban Normal School in La Paz.[4]
Rubio Ruiz joined the cabinet of governor Ángel César Mendoza Arámburo, serving as secretary-general of government.[2][4] He was also president of the PRI regional committee of Baja California Sur.[2] In 1976 he was elected to represent his home state as a Senator in the L Legislature of the Mexican Congress,[4] where he served as president of the fishing committee.[2] However, just a few months after taking office, he died during a surgical procedure on 6 January 1977 in La Paz.[3][5] He was survived by his wife, Cecilia Beltrán, and four children.[4] A minute of silence was observed at the next Congressional meeting on 12 January,[6] and he was replaced by his substitute senator, Víctor Manuel Liceaga Ruibal.[5]
A teacher's college bearing his name, the Centro Regional de Educación Normal Marcelo Rubio Ruiz, was established in 1976.[7] Based in the city of Loreto, it is considered one of the most prestigious institutions of higher learning in the state.[8] There is also a street in La Paz named Calle Profesor Marcelo Rubio Ruiz,[3] as well as a district in the town of Guerrero Negro named after him.[9]
