The lines were long, the sun was heating through the umbrellas and tensions were high at yesterday’s #AsambleaRUM. There is a lot at stake, and while the student body seemed very divided between keeping the university on strike or not, a little over three thousand students took to the Isidoro GarcĂa Stadium to make sure their voices were heard. Â
While many had their own banners to get their opinion out there, many took to twitter and here’s what they had to say.
The anticipation for the #AsambleaRUM was high
Â
The sun was unforgiving and due to the massive turn out of the student body the wait was close to three hours long
Â
Â
And while it seemed like things were taking a usual turn, motions didn’t go through and the suggested agenda went on as previously planned.
Â
Confusion, confusion everywhere! Â
When the student started arguing with the president of the CGE…
Â
And when a student asked for the motions to be translated to English this happened…
Â
When the hunger was hitting like a truck
Â
Some said what we were all thinking
When people were arguing over the microphones
Simply relatable
Â
Â
Here are other reactions worth sharing:
Â
And, finally, when the queen spoke.
