Bougdanos has been working at Niles North for over ten years as a Dean and holds her MSW degree and Type 75 certification (Illinois Administrative Certificate).

Early in the story, we learn that he wasn’t a good person, a good father, and a good son. He also explained one time in his life, he was admired what a group of people did in his school that would lead to his doings. Luis Rodriguez wrote “A crew of mean people got out, armed with chains, bats, metal pipes and zip guns… I froze as the head stopping came dangerously my way. But I was also intrigued. I wanted this power. I wanted to be able to bring the whole school down to its knees and teachers squirm” Pg 42. This quote shows off how much anger he have when he was little and the path he chose to be in gangs. He could have chosen the path of his brother Rafa to be good in school and play sports. Early in the story, people were mean to Luis at school, at the park and the streets. One specific part that made Luis who he is when his mother, his brother and himself went to the park.

This quote shows off how much Luis was influenced that the Latino community didn’t have the same rights, free to do something and being heated from their race. The anger he had from the woman got stuck in his mind, but when he saw the crew that terrorized the school, his anger manipulated him so he could do the same as the crew did. He was just a kind boy that had a bad influence of his

The majority of our friends from middle school either never finished high school, were not eligible to apply to college, or decided not to attend due to a lack of resources. In Barrio Logan the cycle of life and the cycle of poverty go hand in hand. I believe my community along with other disadvantaged communities deserve more, not more than everyone else, but enough to live a dignified life. Education is said to be the great equalizer and I believe in that wholeheartedly. Everyone should have access to a post-secondary education regardless of culture, background, or socioeconomic status. For this reason I am dedicating my life to this cause. There are only a handful of people from my neighborhood with access to the resources and knowledge that I have as a college student. It is my civic duty and moral responsibility to help those in need. Change is being made at the community level, but it must also be made at the systemic
