Illegal immigrants face threat of no college

Waaaaaa! Cry me a river, on your way back over the Rio.

Save the tax dollars for the tax payers! Worse is the stupid idea of in-state tuition for people who are not even citizens of the country! Who came up with this moronic notion in the first place?


Illegal immigrants face threat of no college - USATODAY.com: "Some states are making it harder for illegal immigrants to attend college by denying in-state tuition benefits or banning undocumented students.

In the past two years, Arizona, Colorado, Georgia and Oklahoma have refused in-state tuition benefits to students who entered the USA illegally with their parents but grew up and went to school in the state. That represents a reversal from earlier this decade, when 10 states passed laws allowing in-state rates for such students.

This summer, South Carolina became the first state to bar undocumented students from all public colleges and universities.

North Carolina's community colleges in May ordered its 58 campuses to stop enrolling undocumented students after the state attorney general said admitting them may violate federal law.

'The new trend is to kick illegal aliens out of college altogether,' says William Gheen of Americans for Legal Immigration Political Action Committee, which opposes taxpayer subsidies for undocumented immigrants."
