This from International news and it just reminded me of 1998-99 when I was staying with a girlfriend on the UNAM campus. We woke up one morning and thought it was a Vietnam like landing invasion. Helicopters, trucks and army/police personnel were everywhere. Students and many non-related to the cause had occupied the campus for over 9 months and sorry to say I don't remember their cause (you can Google it). Even though we were in Campus housing we couldn't leave for 2 days
MEXICO CITY -- Mexico's top law enforcement agencies said Tuesday that they were poised to order the removal of a group of masked individuals who have occupied the main administrative building of the national university since Friday.The occupation of the university's rectory tower is linked to a relatively minor political dispute at one of the campus' public feeder high schools, yet the incident has struck a nerve at the National Autonomous University of Mexico, or UNAM by its Spanish acronym, which has an enrollment of more than 330,000 students this year
