Election week

Graffiti over the entrance reads, "for a quality public education."

We're all starting to get a little tired of this. Yesterday was one of the worst demonstrations at La Nacional in some time -- three tanks, four hours, an untold number of canisters of tear gas and "papas," dozens of students not involved in the protest tear gassed (several of whom came to our apartment to recover), classes canceled, and university closed until after elections.
