College Blocks Illegal Student’s Deportation

[chanel]

In a brazen effort to help an illegal immigrant, a public university in Georgia is spending taxpayer resources to block the deportation of a student so that she can complete her degree next year.

The Mexican illegal alien (Jessica Colotl) graduated from a Georgia public high school and has attended Kennesaw State University since 2006. The suburban Atlanta college is Georgia’s third-largest with an enrollment of about 21,000 and Colotl pays heavily discounted in-state tuition that should be reserved for legal residents.

A few weeks ago police pulled Colotl over for a traffic violation and she got arrested for driving without a license. Colotl had no valid identification (her Mexican passport had even expired) and authorities discovered that she had been living illegally in the United States for more than a decade.

Last week the university managed to get Colotl released from an immigration detention center in Gadsden, Alabama so that she could enroll in summer and fall classes. The university’s president called it “great news” and said the community is “especially thrilled” that Colotl will be allowed to continue her studies.

This case has ignited fury among Peach State residents, lawmakers and media outlets that believe public resources should never be spent on helping an illegal immigrant avoid deportation.

I wonder how the students paying full "out of state tuition" feel about this.

Those who made the decision for the University should be charged with fraudulent use of taxpayers money.

The school should charge MEXICO! She should go back and give back to that miserable country. Maybe ALL of these illegals here being educated at OUR expense, should be forced to return to their country of birth and be part of the solution - OVER THERE!!! And of course, WE send the bill to Mexico! One can dream, right?
