Overview
- Students blocked both directions of Insurgentes Sur at Eje 10 Sur from about 2 p.m. before ending the action around 5:30 p.m. to march to Rectoría and submit a petition.
- Protesters are calling for Director Mónica Cejudo Collera to be removed, alleging a lack of response to reports of violence and harassment and citing what they described to La Jornada as a missed strike-protocol handover and refusal of direct dialogue.
- The demonstration is part of a wider wave of unrest across UNAM that recently saw roughly ten faculties on strike, with some schools shifting classes online.
- The Architecture community, on indefinite strike since October 13, is demanding stronger security, expanded psychological support for students, and repairs and upgrades to campus facilities.
- City transit police managed road closures as the blockade caused heavy traffic and affected Metrobús Line 1 service, and there has been no public resolution from UNAM on the specific demands.
