Marina Schuster called on University of La Verne students to speak up and speak out against what they perceive to be violations of human rights.

“Never get tired of challenging assumptions of what you hear, see and read,” she said to the packed audience in the University of La Verne Campus Center Ballroom on Wednesday May 1.
