A REMINDER TO STUDENTS DRAWS THE IRE OF LIBERALS

ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS URGED TO SEEK LEGAL STATUS 

A tweak in Texas state law was unanimously approved Thursday. The rule change by the Texas High Education Coordinating Board now mandates that Texas colleges must send illegal immigrants who pay in-state college tuition rates reminders that they promised to seek legal status in exchange. The rule change will not end the tuition break or the student’s ability to qualify.

Amnesty advocates say the reminders (which could begin as early as this summer) are unnecessary and could place students in jeopardy of deportation if they contact authorities without first seeking illegal advice. Since 2001, Texas has allowed illegal immigrants to qualify for in-state tuition rates saving the students on $10,000 on average at a four-year university and $3,400 at community colleges.
