BANKRUPT THE SYSTEM BY MAKING COLLEGES ADMIT ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS
November 30, 2007
RALEIGH NORTH CAROLINA — Effective immediately, a new policy requires that all community colleges in North Carolina must admit students regardless of their immigration status. Meaning illegal or not! Before the change, schools could decide themselves whether they want to enroll undocumented persons.
Wake Technical Community College is a school that did not admit them. Now, she and all other North Carolina community college are open to all students, even those who are in the United States illegally.
Everybody does not agree with the policy.
Before the policy change, about half of North Carolina’s 58 community colleges enrolled illegal immigrants. According to the figures, 340 illegal immigrants are taking students in classes at North Carolina community colleges.
If students can not prove they live in North Carolina, they have to pay state tuition, which is higher. Outside of the state, students, if they came from Florida, Tennessee, documented or undocumented, in fact, if they paying out-of-state tuition, they ‘re paying 140 percent of the actual cost of their education.
But it is the direction some people do not think illegal immigrants should get, regardless of the cost. Community College officials said they did not expect a mass influx of illegal immigrants to enroll in schools because of the policy change.
In the end it’s just another way to drain tax payers money into a corrupt system.
