Ten students from the school's U.S.-Mexico border reporting class produced a multimedia project, "Bordering 110°," comparing the Nogales area with towns in Montana and Alberta. Students used drones, 360° video and audio to enhance the project, with help from Profs. Celeste Bustamante and Mike McKisson.
