I attended Colorado State University at the height of the 60s' student unrest, from September 1968 to April 1970. One day I went to the Lory Student Center to a political gathering of international graduate students. My interest was to see just what was going on. I got there early and sat in the back of the room. As I was beginning to relax, a student from an African country suddenly approached me in a direct and unfriendly manner, and said: "Where are you from?" I said: "I am from Peru." He said: "Oh, we are friends... you are too far." It was then that I began to realize that politics and geography can make strange bedfellows.
