'The bridge closing would completely change life for everyone here on the border.'
As President Donald Trump continues threats to close at least parts of the southern border if a deal can’t be reached on border security, universities and individual students are making contingency plans.
“Every day I have to worry about not being to either go home to my family or to go to school and work,” Castillo said. “The stress and anxiety over this situation have added on to the stress I already had as a master’s student with big amounts of coursework and other research projects.” But, time is a gift and there’s no guarantee that Castillo will know in advance that the border will be closing. In that event, she would be stuck wherever she was in that moment, and Castillo prepared for both the day she is bound to Ciudad Juarez or bound to El Paso.
“Notifications have been sent to faculty encouraging them to work with students who may be impacted if the ports of entry are closed,” the school said on its website. “Students are encouraged to work with their faculty to identify a plan for continued success academically.”
