Don't Fence Me In Brownsville

Rut-roh:

A proposed fence along the Mexico-U.S. border could leave a portion of the University of Texas at Brownsville and a Texas Southmost College campus on the Mexican side of the fence, a university official said Monday.

"I don't think it would be appropriate to fence off the university on the Mexican side of the fence," Antonio D. Zavaleta, UTB-TSC vice president for external affairs, said he told a government official.


It seems like the International, Technology, Education and Commerce campus would be "affected" if a border fence were to be built. Rather inconvenient, that.

Maybe V.P. for External Affairs (WTF-ever that means) Zavaleta could have a chat with the Palestinians about this. They seem to have some experience with such things.
