"Dos de Octubre; no se olvida" is a historical motto that still resounds in the hearts of Mexicans familiar with the events of 1968. "Second of October; don't forget."

No, I'm not referring to the Olympic Games set in Mexico City that same year, but of the military shooting of students and civilians resulting in unknown hundreds of wounded, dead and disappeared individuals during a student meeting at Plaza de las Tres Culturas in Mexico's Tlatelolco.

When the university implemented the idea of the Task Force, students cringed at the suggestions looming on the horizon.

How is it humanly possible to complete dozens of hours of homework each night when you already have long-term projects, tests, extra curricular activities and a social life competing for your time?

Think of it this way: in an extreme situation, a student spends eight hours a day in class.

Saturday Night Live comedian Tina Fey's impersonation of Alaskan Gov. Sarah Palin is

spot on-smiley, clueless and dangerous.

Dressed in Palin's now infamous rimless lasses, the comedian's imitation of Sen. John Mc-Cain's vice presidential pick is a hit with American audiences and has even joined the campaign coverage.
