Well, they say all good things must come to an end. And so it is with Southwestern´s joint Summer Abroad program in Guanajuato, Mexico.
The program began with and incredible overview of NAFTA and Free Trade Agreements by Southwestern's Professor Lutz. Then Professor Jorge Ramirez of Texas Tech took over. In addition to being a NAFTA expert he was on Law Review with Barak Obama at Harvard and had fascinating and positive stories to share about the Democratic presidential candidate. The course will end with a week of lectures by Professor Lopez, also from Texas Tech and an expert on Free Trade. Special thanks to Joan Hicks Romero. Joan is an American who has lived in Mexico for 53 years and whose son is the current Governor of the State of Guanajuato. Joan is a friend to the program and coordinated many students events. Thanks for looking out for us Joan!
Since a picture is said to say a thousand words, I will share some of the other highlights and experiences of attending this outstanding program.

Hey Jim,
I randomly stumbled on this because I was googling Joan to look up her son the mayor or governor or whatever he was. So weird! Hi!!

That's funny... I too was looking up Joan's son to see if he was still Mayor! =) Good times.
