It is very hard to find articles on U.S. immigration in Spanish. I have to give a presentation on Tuesday (15-20 min in Spanish! scary), and I have to turn in an accompanying article tomorrow.

I don't know how I got stuck with the last time slot for a final exam - Friday at 4pm. I was looking at stuff in my Number Theory book that we didn't do, and I found this awesome ( Read more... )
