Southwestern College

They could have played rent-free in the stadium, and they didn't do it.

So where were the Chargers going to play? Southwestern College? Mesa? I mean, where were they going to play? There's nothing here.

No, nothing.

Nick and Ted, let me interject.

[risa] Todos es-- tuvimos esa conversación.

Claro, ¿no? Y, este, entonces me, me meto al Southwestern College.

Eh, ya estaba muy cerca de, de agarrar una associate's degree.

Termino ahí lo que viene siendo, este, dos años-- digo, perdón, dos semestres y me muevo a San Diego State.

Sí, sí, sí.

Pero también tus experiencias de vida, ¿no? Y eso me, me gusta siempre recalcarlo.

Eh, creo que comentabas por ahí tus experiencias, por ejemplo en la-- en Southwestern College, que de cer-- de repente decías: a ver, ¿qué está pasando aquí, no?

Sí.

After the massacre, there was a public outcry from the victims, families, and citizens of San Ysidro and the surrounding areas to demolish the McDonald's restaurant, and in September of 1984, the McDonald's was demolished.

Today on the property stands a satellite campus for Southwestern College's Higher Education Center.

Outside the building stands a memorial consisting of 21 white hexagonal pillars.

Each of the pillars is of a different height to represent the difference in ages of the 21 people killed that day.

The plaque on the memorial reads, The Southwestern College San Ysidro Center is dedicated as a living memorial to those who died so tragically on July 18, 1984, and to those survivors who continue to bear the scars of that day.

It then lists all 21 names of those who were killed.

This case brought about severe changes in the policies of the San Diego Police Department.
