Rodolfo

The high school teachers in Tolimán told me: "Rodolfo, don't stop studying, go to Querétaro and apply to the universities. I wanted to continue studying so much, but the truth is that after finishing school I didn't have enough money to stay in college, so I decided to take a three-month break and go to work in the city. The three months turned into six and then nine. I worked in construction here in Querétaro and every two or three weeks I went back home to see my family.

There are encounters that change your life forever. If I am studying Criminology today, I owe it to the encounter with a book that crossed my path when I was still in high school: "Forensic Science" by Alex Frith. From the first pages I was captivated by the amazing variety of techniques to discover the perpetrator of a crime. A drop of water, a fragment of skin, a footprint in the dust, even the flight of flies can help in the interpretation of a crime scene.

Lissete

I am 18 years old and my mother is 37. At my age, she was already pregnant with me, the first of seven siblings. She made it to the fourth grade of elementary school, then she had to go to work when she was still a child. She finished elementary school years later, with INEA, studying at night together with me and asking me for help with the most difficult homework, because at that time I was already in high school.
