Please remember to send me an email with your research topic if you have one or your request for one if you'd like some direction. You are encouraged to work together to find out how all the tools and databases in the system work.

- Why are conditions so bad in Haiti, and why are Haitians not generally given refugee status in the U.S.?

- Why did the president of El Salvador ask the U.S. not to deport Salvadorans?
- What are the three classes of Central America refugees?
