Over the past week, some students like myself received emails from our home institutions and families asking us to come home. The U.S. embassy in Morocco says the embassy can get the students stateside next week at the very earliest, according to students still in Morocco. The two Clark University students were in an airport Thursday from 4 a.m. to 4 p.m. attempting to get a ticket. But I and the friends and families of roughly 17 American university students stranded overseas will be on edge until they all come home. Gari De Ramos is a junior at Clark University majoring in political science.
