In a 5 February 1997 telephone interview an official with the National University of Mar del Plata stated that there is an organization called the Centro de Estudiantes de Ciencias Exacta y Naturales (CECEN) at the university, but specific information on its activities and the treatment of its members by the authorities could not be obtained by the DIRB because the university is currently recessed.

This Response is not, and does not purport to be, conclusive as to the merit of any particular claim to refugee status or asylum.
