Mexican city university involved in conflict — centre for rendezvous (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

juarez

'mexican city' is the definition.
(Ciudad Juarez is a Mexican city)

'university involved in conflict centre for rendezvous' is the wordplay.
'university' becomes 'u' (abbreviation for university).
'involved in' indicates putting letters inside.
'conflict' becomes 'jar' (if something jars, it conflicts or clashes).
'centre for' says to take the centre.
The centre of 'rendezvous' is 'ez'.
'u' placed within 'jar' is 'juar'.
'juar'+'ez'='JUAREZ'
