Si él sabe cómo está el sistema con nosotros que somos internacionales ¿o no? ”

Because more people are going to keep coming to the university, so it’s going to be a constant problem just parking here on campus. Also, I know there is going to be a new education building as well. How is that going to affect our federal grants? What should we watch out for? … Because I honestly don’t know, especially with the new presidency.”

“I’m curious to know if we are getting a football team after all. I read something about it online and it’d be pretty cool. We don’t really have a college team locally that I can check out.”
