BOSTON (AP) -- An undocumented Harvard University student is facing deportation to Mexico after being detained by immigration authorities at a Texas airport, the student said Friday.
Eric Balderas, 19, who just completed his first year at Harvard, said he was detained Monday by immigration authorities when he tried to board a plane from his hometown of San Antonio to Boston using a consulate card from Mexico and his student ID.

A consulate card is issued by the Mexican government and is an illegal alien ID card.
Its proof of Mexican citizenship to those that don’t hold Mexican passports.
Buh-by

Deport him then cut all funding to Harvard and jail the dean of admissions for allowing him to register.
Thanks, I’ve never heard of it.
Shaking my head.
More than likely, he has stolen some American’s chance at attending Harvard and that sucks.

I don’t know about that, plenty of schools have lots of international students. But the proper procedure is to apply for an F1 visa and show that you have the wherewithal to afford life in the United States with the agreement that you’ll go back to your own country at the end of your schooling.
Illegal isn’t a race it’s a crime.
Bad enough he’s illegal but he had to call attention to himself by “coming out” as an illegal in March and participating in protest rally’s. My kid has a 4.25GPA and wants a spot at Harvard. She’s legal, give her the seat and the money.
And what about his parents? Maybe he can stay, and they can go.
I guess if I robbed a bank, but I went to Harvard, it would be OK.
No, his hometown is somewhere in May-hee-co. He's an illegal-alien activist, taking part in sit-ins, no less, so I don't believe him when he says he "lost" his Mex passport that he'd been using previously.
The whole thing is a set-up by the America-hating pinkos, with the apparent intent of challenging the requirement that aliens use real ID. The little twerp probably used his illegal status as an admissions selling point to get into Harvard on a "victim" scholarship. (Yes, some hard-working actual American lost a shot at Harvard so they could say they have an illegal student.)
Besides breaking the law against illegal entry, I'm guessing he also lied to immigration authorities when the interrogated him. He needs to get tossed out on his Commie butt. Then he won't be heard from again, which may break his heart, but the law is the law.
He's not eligible to obtain a student visa.
The real tragedy is that he was likely a student at Harvard under a scholarship granted to minorities. As a result, some American kid, such as my nephew, was denied admittance.......
Obviously his home town is NOT San Antonio. But that's Harvard. Last week or so they found they had admitted a psychopathic liar with a false-front academic history, and kept him for three years. Whaddya expect from a diploma mill that considers barack obama an honors graduate.
Let him transfer to the U. of Mehico.
Assuming they are willing to accept semester hours from Harvard.
Adios...
