Mexico's ex-president is Yale's current director of globalization studies at the school.

Yale is defending him as he is being accused of starting several violent guerillas to fight agains the Zapatista Army For National Liberation. The ex president is being accused of 123 murders, 37 cases disapearences (spll?) and forcing 13 thousand poeple out of their homes during his reign as Mexicos president. This dude made a good move on leaving Mexico. I'm sure he would of ended up dead. There is a lot of people in Mexico that don't like him.
