In this issue

We feature in this edition of the CMSC Newsletter, continuing coverage on the dynamic #YoSoy132 student movement in Mexico and the presidential debate they hosted on Youtube on June 19, 2012.

In addition, we celebrate the historic victory led by the “dreamers” student movement that pressured President Obama to finally stop the deportation of undocumented students and granting them the right to temporary work permits.

Historic Dreamers Victory: Obama’s no deportation of dreamers & work permits new policy

Finally, we recognize the journalistic courage and groundbreaking front page article by TIME Magazine on the plight of the “dreamers”, authored by Jose Antonio Vargas. And several related articles that reflect the human potential and contributions “dreamer” students can offer the U.S., as in the case of Sergio Garcia that awaits the California Supreme Court’s ruling to allow him to practice law.
