Bruins without Borders Week

sronquillo — Tue, 30 Oct 2012 02:09:43 +0000

Formerly called “Undocumented Student Week”, this year’s chapter has formed a name that is inclusive of not only the undocumented struggle, but the social struggles of other groups and how they intersect. To bridge the gap and strengthen solidarity with other social movements, this chapter has taken into account the need to overcome boundaries, to be “Bruins Without Borders”!
