Cornell University: Undocumented Students and Literature Student

cornell university: I am frightened, said one literature student, who asked not to be identified for fear she could be deported, according to Hamilton Spectator. But I am also encouraged to see people mobilizing and organizing and preparing for Trump to carry out his threat to deport millions of illegals. At Cornell University, in Ithaca, N.Y., more than 2,000 students and professors signed a petition asking the university to join other institutions and declare itself a sanctuary, or safe haven, for undocumented students. As many as 740,000 children and teenagers including this woman in her 20s were given temporary amnesty four years ago when President Barack Obama passed the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals DACA . Now these DREAMERS named after an earlier version of the act which was not passed fear they, or their parents, will be targeted if they come out of the shadows. They worked hard and paid taxes and put me and my two siblings through college, said the Cornell student, who attended a recent campus rally. My parents brought me from Mexico to Los Angeles when I was 8. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
