shut down the largest learning and research center of the country for 10 months. Thanks to the strike, the university remains tuition free to this day, but it was a very tense and polarizing moment. “Güeros” explores how students who, for the most part, were not part of the strike lived through those months. What does “Güeros” have to say about socio-political issues in Mexico City? Also, what does the film have to say about youth in Mexico City?  I love Alonso’s idea of making a road movie of

,” Benita said. “I’m not proud of just playing well at nationals but of a season of being a winning team, growing the program, and making a name for ourselves.” And when I finally collapsed into bed early Monday morning, I turned off my light and smiled at the team picture next to my bed. It took my college career, late study nights with the team, dance parties on the weekend, and countless practices and workouts to make it here. And it was absolutely worth it.

Australia, Washington state, Texas, and back to Australia. With that said, I finally feel at home in Ocean Grove.
