After reading this article, I think we shouldn't hold it against her that she is here illegally. We should pay for her university education. < /msm programming >
She sounds like an excellent candidate for the Universidad de Mexico City.
Owl_Eagle(If what I just wrote makes you sad or angry,
Why is it that liberals think it's ok for illegal aliens to break the law, but not ok for the rest of us? If I work really hard, can I rob banks and not go to jail? How many hours do I have to work in a field each day before it becomes ok for me to stab somebody? Or does hard work just make some lawbreaking ok?
Being a criminal tends to do that.
Since I have a hard time paying for my own kid's college education........exactly WHY am I supposed to feel concerned that AN ILLEGAL is having problems paying for school.........GIVE ME A BREAK!
She's ILLEGAL! It shouldn't even be an issue because she needs deported.
Lets' see...she's in the USA illegally. She's attended US schools for 4-5 years at no cost to her. She can't get a federal grant or loan because of her "illegal" immigration status. She can't get a job because of her "illegal" immigration status. Is college just something for her to pass the time? By her own admission a college degree will not help her secure a job in the US. Degreed lettuce pickers do not require a college education. See the illegal freeloader home now!
Don't Universities have some sort of poicy on Criminal behaviour. since she is ILLEGAL. doesn't that immediately disqualify her from attending most colleges.
Exactly........Deport her and then her problems will be solved. Her home country will no doubt pay her way through the school of her choice.
Isn't it amazing the the INS and the rest of our stalwart gov. employees can never locate illegals but every two bit liberal reporter can locate tons of them!!!
Just here to get the educational dollars that many US citizen can't get.
CRIMINAL status a roadblock to college

No kidding! This sort of story frosts me. My daughter wants to go to a California school too. We're considered "rich" so no help whatsoever, and we have to pay out-of-state tuition while the illegals don't. Their tuition is already being footed by the California taxpayers and they're whining the feds aren't kicking in too?
Not only that but this "poor illegal" wants to take poly sci so she can play Robin Hood and rook folk out of even more of their own money? (she sure doesn't sound like a conservative). Do we have a shortage of poly sci majors that we need to foot the bill for them? I don't think so.
Oh, please - shut the hell up!
I'm sure many fo us have stories about what we did to help pay for College. One summer, I shoveled snap beans off a truck and scraped and painted propabe tanks. Add that to taking classes and it was a busy day.
I feel no, NONE, ZERO empathy for this person.
Sorry for the rude remark in my post, if you need to pull the post, I understand. I'm just tired of hearing this sort of whining from illegal immigrants...

Oh Geez! What's the matter with you? That makes way too much sense.
......;^)
There's no uncertainty in my mind. The answer is NOT.
"According to the Texas House Research Organization, not helping students attend college costs states and contributes to an uneducated work force."
I've got no significant problem with spending tax dollars to pay for the education of US CITIZENS and LEGAL IMMIGRANTS who qualify academically. The rest should not only not have their education funded--=they should be rounded up and sent back to their home country.
