 Immigration focus of summer program
Richard Schaefer, associate professor, Communication & Journalism, is in Mexico for the first UNM summer school session with the Cross-Border Issues Group, a class designed to give undergraduate and graduate students the opportunity to explore immigration in depth and in Spanish.
“Last year we looked primarily at immigration from Central Mexico into the United States. This year we’re expanding our focus to include immigration within Mexico and from Guatemala into Mexico,” Schaefer said. The group produced radio programs that aired on KUNM last summer. This year, plans include television segments.  [More] |
