I’m looking for other Brits affected by this. Have you been stopped at the border recently too for this reason? Please DM me or comment if you’d be happy to speak to me for a story. Thx

Everyday is a good day to ask this.
If you (or someone you know) is currently considering #university, raise this issue with them & ask them to ask the institutions they are looking at - especially if they are able to attend an open day.
Ask the uni before you choose.

Is today a good day to flag that some Universities still don’t have policies about lecturers having relationships with students…..

For the first time, the entry exam for the Mexican foreign diplomatic service accepts a second #language from those spoken by the country’s diverse indigenous communities including Maya, Mixteco, Nahuatl or Zapoteco
Better late than never.
This is truly #MexicoOrgullo

Por primera vez, el concurso de ingreso al Servicio Exterior Mexicano permite acreditar el segundo idioma con una lengua indígena: maya, mixteco, náhuatl o zapoteco. Es una opción adicional que amplía las capacidades de nuestra red consular.
