Now in present day,no changes have been made for this group of students.All students paid the $800.Many students couldn't pay that amount and left their studies.Students that don't have good resources needed to left the university because it was obligated to pay the $800.This $800 were the reason to the government budget,because the government budget was exceeding.
In March 7,2011 Ana Guadalupe the Rio Piedras Chancellor was assaulted by students.Dr.Guadalupe was sorrounded by angry students and was whisked to a campus security vehicle which was then attacked by students,who broke vechicle mirrors and windows.The students did this action to the Dr.Guadalupe saying "she provoked these attacks with her intransigent politics".They are angry because the administration selected by Luis Fortuño’s government has made changes without consulting employees or students, decisions that have cost the university dearly.
The government will not make any changes about this situation because they need to make money for the government's budget.Until now many protest are occuring still in the university.I think that in a future there will be changes made and many students will benefit.The university and the government are violating the first amendment of the constitution,because they are not letting the students to have freedom of speech and opinion.

Struggle...
The students of the UPR are defending themselves by protesting and stoping the clases for 24 hours.The teachers of the university defend the students in everything.The students don't fight with anybody,but if the police officers hits some of the students,they all defend their selves.They also used as method,doing assemblies with the director and explain to him what the students want and their feelings.
At first,the students were protesting in a peacefully way,but as the time went on things were getting more intensive.Students were agressive with the police.Too many students were arrested and charged in court of offensive abuse with the police.Students were using gas pepper to defend their selves,they were throwing rocks to the police and the police hitting the students with their sticks.Too many violence occurred in the UPR.Now is a little bit much better in the university.
Students use as another method of protest,to draw in front of the university and in the street.They drew words symbolizing their protest.They use to sit in a street and stop the traffic.All of this just because of the protest.But all of this things they were doing for the police was not right.The police use to hit the students,they did not matter whether it was a women or a men.By this, many people that were not from the university,entered to the university and defend the students,because what the police was doing with them was very ugly and very sad.Many parents of this students put charge in many of the police officers.

Students are mistreated...
The students of the UPR are suffering all this year along and all because of their rights and the abuse with them.The students are defending their rights and are protesting in a peace way,but the government sends police troops to the university.This police man's are saying things to the students or abusing of them and they are defending themselves,but when a student tries to defends the police arrest them and take them to court.
The students have been mistreated by their own director and by their own government.The government requieres them to pay $800 for the coute.That is a public university and they pay the two semester and no more.But the government wants that they pay that $800 that many students don't have the resources to pay that amount.Many students that are in this public university is because they don't have the money to be in a private one that is more expensive.What all of those students are doing is protesting so that the government and the director of the university canceled the $800 coute.
The government is violating one right of the Constitution.They are violating the freedom of speech of those students that are trying to defend their rights.They are protesting in a peacefull way,but when they see that the police mans are coming to them,they defend themselves like all humans does.The students are not studying like they wish too.Now they are studying with a bunch of police man that the government decided to leave them there in the university like if the students were prisioners.I think that is a mistreat by the government,because the students are not free like they always were since they started there.The government should let them express their feelings and thoughts so they can get to a great deal.

Public students have rights too!
Every student should have every equal right,no matter what color,religion or type is that student.The US government made this Bill of Rights for students,because when they are in university,they need to protect that university.Many students today are in fight for their university.Every university has their own problem not all of them have the same one.Every university has a student council.This student council is a group of students that talks with the director and say to him what every one of the students want or feels about the university.
Students in public higher education have substantially greater rights than students in primary and secondary education. First, the vast majority of students in public higher education are legal adults; thus, the state does not stand in loco parentis in relation to them, as they are their own guardians, possessing the same rights that all citizens have. In addition, public universities and colleges are institutions dedicated to the free exchange of ideas, the concept of academic freedom, and the concept of shared governance. This translates to the fact that free speech and participation in governance of the institution by students is common.
Students rights' in the context of higher education often extends to concepts like:the right to form groups of their choosing to express their views, and receive funding for them;the right to speak freely, assemble, and demonstrate;the right to due process and an impartial hearing in any disciplinary matter;the right to participate in the governance of the institution;the right to make rules and regulations and have primary responsibility for the governance of student conduct;the right to do as they will, so long as they harm no other.
