A college in AZ to charge fee to fund illegal immigrants!?!?!?
 
As the article states this a an adminstration making a political statement.

If I were a student there I would quit.

If I had a child going there and was paying for their education, they would have to change schools as I would not pay the fee.

I would love to meet the president of that school to have him/her try to explain to me why they think this is the right thing to be doing.

Arizona college imposes mandatory fee to fund scholarship for illegal immigrants | Fox News

What is the incentive to handle immigration according to the law when the bleeding heart fools are promoting and facilitating those who do not abide by the laws of the land.

Hopefully this is and remains an isolated institution. Hopefully there are students and parents there that feel as I do and respond accordingly.

"Prescott College is tacking a $30 annual fee onto its $28,000 annual tuition to establish an annual scholarship for “undocumented” students, as part of a policy first proposed by students and faculty from the undergraduate and Social Justice and Human Rights Master of Arts divisions. Backers say it helps reverse what they call Arizona’s reputation as a “national example of discriminatory politics.”

You would pay everything but the fee? I could only afford a third of my kids tuition Your kids were fortunte.

I don't like Trump but I'll give him my vote since he is promising to kick the illegal aliens @$$es out of our country. We don't need criminals going to school with our kids.

It's OK. The other republicans won't call you a traitor. You can like Trump. Be open minded. He thinks like you do.

No offense, but what does any of that list have to do with Illegal aliens receiving a scholarship or even being allowed to register with the college? They are criminals, so I do not see the point of their being welcome at one of our institutions, other than a jail before deportation.

In 30 years, you won't recognize this country. For the last 5 years, there have been more minority births than white. More minority kindergarten registrations then white. We're on our way out. The world is becoming 3rd world as the "West" is bred out of their own countries.

And may have already passed the point of no return.

With the likes of Obama and free entry, open border, no law enforcement, financial aid to illegals and the like mined activity in recent months in Europe and already underway in France and Germany.....we are fast becoming the minority.

I have to laugh because we did nothing about it when we were decidedly the majority!!

We were "shamed" into letting it happen. We felt so sorry for blacks that we allowed them to live for free, pretty well too. Everyone else jumped on the band wagon and got a piece too. We're now being overrun. we're 5 years into no longer being the majority. Our best years are behind us, look at the 3rd world look of our cities and towns. If you didn't know, you'd think you were in another country.

America used to be the great Utopia. But, little by little the liberals and socialists have infiltrated the power structure until they have had enough power to change our country into the ghetto. I figure that I have about 30 years left and I figure that by the time our great country falls to the needy, subsidized socialists, I'll be about out of here. We had it great, and now the youth of our country are getting what they asked for, the keys to the car. How they treat that car is totally up to them. Because now that they are adults, they are responsible for all the maintenance (or lack of) and all the insurance and all the tickets they get. It's no longer up to the parents to bail them out. If they can't get it under control, then they deserve to lose everything their parents built for them. Immigrants are not the problem. Criminals and lack of enforcement is the problem. If you ask an immigrant that came in to our country legally, they will tell you that it is unfair that others get to circumvent the law and even get benefits when they do it. Like the old saying goes, the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence. Have fun with your European style socialism. I am sure that America can do it much better than all those other failed countries.

This what happened to the presidency after Lincoln was assassinated.
