Sanctuaries...

Since Election Day, administrators from several major universities have been under pressure to officially declare their campuses sanctuaries for undocumented immigrants, with petitions at each college gaining thousands of signatures.

The petitions at Yale, Stanford, University of Wisconsin-Madison and Brown all contain similar language. Each of the petitions claim that law enforcement and immigration officers cannot set foot on campus without administrators’ permission, citing a 2011 memo from U.S. Immigrations and Customs Enforcement.

New Haven, home of Yale, is already a sanctuary city, as is Oberlin and Palo Alto, where Stanford is located; Rhode Island, home to Brown, has designated the entire state as a sanctuary.

But Randa Tawil, a Ph.D. student at Yale who helped draft the letter there, says it’s still important to prompt administrators to designate campuses as sanctuaries because “Trump has threatened to federally defund sanctuary cities, and furthermore [universities] have a special obligation to create a safe environment for their students and families.”




Sounds like a job for the National Guard to me.... Mellow

Drafter, you obviously didn't get (or didn't read) the memo.

When the term was changed from ILLEGAL immigrant to UNDOCUMENTED immigrant, we are all supposed to forget, and never again acknowledge, that they are here ILLEGALLY. Just get 'em documented and everything's cool.

I have no clue where Randa Tawil got the idea that universities have an obligation to harbor criminals and give them a safe environment....whatever the **** that means

These university's are crazy. UofM is telling Michigan that it can pass its own laws because it has an elected board of regents, and that the states laws don't apply to them if they make an opposing law. Maybe it is time to defund the university's and let them survive on tuition, and their trusts.

A. Most sanctuary locations will accept only those undocumented immigrants who are not criminals. Do the math in your head and you'd realize that illegal = against the law = criminal. But i don't want to confuse anyone with math or sciency stuff.

B. It's not the grapes that matter. The Greeks and WOPS will pick those, like always. It's the lettuce that we need to be worried about. And strawberries.

Like that time Frank wore a clear plastic bathing suit to the beach.
I said to him: "I can clearly see your nuts"


grammar was never a strong suit.
