GTCC Release (Guilford County, NC)
GTCC Marketing & Public Information | 5-5-2005 | Elizabeth McKinney

The Policy Committee of Guilford Technical Community College's Board of Trustees has voted to recommend the conditional admission of undocumented immigrants with the following limitations, subject to approval by the full board at its June 16, 2005 meeting:

* An undocumented immigrant may be considered for admission if he or she attended high school in the United States for at least 3 years and graduated.

* Undocumented immigrants may not receive state or federal financial aid in the form of a grant, a loan, or aid from a college source.

* An undocumented immigrant will be considered an out-of-state resident for tuition purposes per the North Carolina Community College System policy and Title 23 of the North Carolina Administrative Code.

* When considering whether or not to admit an undocumented immigrant into a specific program of study, the College will take into account that federal law prohibits the states from granting professional licenses to undocumented immigrants.

"After researching this issue for six months, I feel that this is the right action to take, since these children were brought to the U. S. by their parents and have had no voice in their legal future." Don Cameron, President, GTCC

"When considering whether or not to admit an undocumented immigrant into a specific program of study, the College will take into account that federal law prohibits the states from granting professional licenses to undocumented immigrants."

I'd support a law that would cut off federal funding for educational institutions that enroll criminal illegal aliens.

Me too, Rebel. Maybe we should demand lawmakers entertain this idea as well.

The fact that this is happening in multiple places across the country, nearly simultaneously, implies large scale planning. Now there's a conspiracy for you, and it's no mere theory, either.
