Led by David Oxley, President of Pomona College, nearly 550 college and university presidents, to date, are signatories on the Statement in Support of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) Program and our Undocumented Immigrant Students. This statement sends a strong message to the president-elect and his incoming administration on the importance of DACA and “the critical benefits of this program for our students, and the highly positive impacts on our institutions and communities.”
Now is time for public and private higher ed leaders to be more vocal on policy issues that impact their students and campuses, and come together to form a civic coalition that protects students and their access to learning and, ultimately, prosperity.
Bravo presidents for using your voice in defense of education!
