In May 2016, 10 students from SUNY Oneonta traveled to the Arizona/Mexico border to participate in the Borderlinks Experience. BorderLinks is a nonprofit based in Tucson, AZ, that focuses attention on cultural understanding and the human side of mass migration. The six American and four international students from SUNY Oneonta who participated in the BorderLinks program did so in part because each had a personal connection to the immigration issue.
This digital project was produced in both English and Spanish, and photo/video content was crowdsourced over social media by students in the program. This project was produced to highlight the strategic plan of SUNY Oneonta to internal and external audiences.
