- Abstract:
The article discusses an explosion at the University of the Atlantic in Barranquilla, Colombia which killed four students. The explosion was caused by gunpowder which police believe was being used to produce small potato bombs for use in student protests against the university's planned reorganization and austerity policy which includes tuition increases. The school's budget crisis prompted the reorganization plans, and continues to threaten its stability as it operates under bankruptcy protection.
