Dallas Area University To Hold Immigration Confrence
On Monday Sept. 8th the University of Texas at Arlington's 'Center for Mexican American Studies' will hold a conference on immigration in the USA and Spain. Of course the moderators mainly consist of hispanic professors at the University and others from around the area.
Michale Moore (a terrible professor by the way) and Senior Vice Provost will give the opening remarks.
Lets try and get some patriots out here to Arlington to this one side 'discussion' on immigration.
