<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Durante mi etapa de funcionaria de admisiones universitarias el 1 de abril era muy especial porque compartíamos con los estudiantes las decisiones sobre admisiones. Aunque algunos estudiantes sabían exactamente qué hacer y cumplían fácilmente con el plazo del 1 de mayo para darnos su decisión, muchos estudiantes latinos que eran los primeros de su familia en ir a la universidad necesitaban un poco más de ayuda en el proceso.</p>

Editorial:

For Mexican Americans, Cinco de Mayo should be a time of honor and the celebration of a great victory. Cinco de Mayo represents our Mexican compatriots’ victory over the superior forces from France. The battle at the Puebla was also a battle between the classes of Mexico, aristocrats against the indigenous population, the poor, the farmers, and the people who were considered commoners.
