and the favorite foods and beverages of the departed. Here are UGA, SLE celebrates
El Dia de los Muertos by building "altares" similar to the beautiful,
detailed traditional ones of Mexico. In these altars we pay tribute to people who
have recently died for noble causes or who were victims of havoc (i.e.American
soldiers, the women of Ciudad Juarez, the victims of the Peruvian earthquake, etc).
