Mayte Lara tweeted after graduating from Crockett High School in Austin
But the Texas teenager also mentioned that she was 'undocumented'
Federal law does not prohibit states from providing in-state tuition to undocumented students
High school graduation season is in full swing and Twitter and Facebook are jam-packed with pictures of jubilant teenagers but one girl's tweet has landed her in a whole lot of trouble.
Mayte Lara, from Crockett High School in Austin, Texas, tweeted: 'Valedictorian, 4.5GPA, full tuition paid for at UT, 13 cords and medals, nice legs, oh and I'm undocumented.'
(snip)
The fact that Lara has publicly admitted to being undocumented will not, however, compromise her offer of full tuition at University of Texas.
A spokesman for the university said: 'In accordance with state law, Texas universities - including the University of Texas schools - have for decades granted two-semester tuition waivers to valedictorians of Texas public high schools, without regard to their residency status.
'State law also does not distinguish between documented and undocumented graduates of Texas high schools in admissions and financial aid decisions. University policies reflect that law'.

The little parasite ought to have to pay back ever dime she sucked out of the system upon graduating from College or be immediately sent back south to clean up the sess pool she and her breeders came from!
I suggest little miss ‘undocumented’ apply for citizenship because college and ‘nice legs’ will be pretty useless when filling out an e-verify’d job application.
Intelligence without wisdom is a load of books riding on the back as an a$$......
She’s lying about her legs.
It’s not even a close call.
Robbing and stealing from America.
Sidelining NBC Americans.
It’s quite the business, these days.
Several of our countrymen are in on it.
I know a lot of people upset that an illegal immigrant student from Mexico whenever pays in state tuition but a kid who came from New Mexico last year pays two to three times as much as out of state tuition.
I guess many schools aren’t really on a 4.0 scale if some courses earn five points and students can score higher than 100 on some exams.
All you say is true.
She WILL sneak back in. For those kind of weak, godless people, COMPLAINING is the key. Following through? Not a chance. That takes backbone.
No doubt.
I was in academia for forty-four years and teachers, from B.A./B.S. to Ph.D., and all I can say is: YOU ARE RIGHT.
I got along with all the men in my department but not with the women. They knew better than to challenge me so they just left me alone. My best friend was the department secretary.
My mother had taught me EONS ago that the secretaries control the world. She was correct.
I knew it before I read that far. Some Texas colleges give two and four year full rides for Vals. Disgusting. She stole this from an American student. Her butt needs to be on a one way trip back across the border or in jail.
I pine for her lamentations as the BP is loading her on the deportation bus to Mexico on national tv.
Maxi caca.
NO one likes a bragger.
The advanced placement is a racist joke as TOO many of those students are either:
Chinese girls, young women
or
minority males who are WAY too obvious in their absence. They crash and burn because they don't belong there. It's NO favor to them.
Almost all the tokens crash and burn unless they happen to be very educated and/or intelligent. They just get to see, up close and personal, how deficient they are for competing with the rest of America.
I worked in this golden state for 44 years in public education as an instructor, so I kinda DO know what I am talking about too.
Agreed! My grandfather immigrated here from Germany in 1930 and as an adult flew the American flag outside his house every day. It went out at dawn and came down at dusk. During winter there was a light to keep it properly illuminated. He was proudly patriotic and never lost sight of all that he was afforded here. Only English was spoken in public or when guests were over.
When he left the German economy had been in ruins and for years food had become incredibly dear. Everyone was eating turnips out of the forests (which were apparently abundant) but meat and bread were delicacies to be savored as they were rare.
This little brat has probably never known true want but Karma’s a bitch and Let’s hope it catches up with her.
As a fellow immigrant, my Grandfather would be disgusted with this woman’s attitude.
and as she moves on with her life....what other “cash-backs” will she sign up for....once you tasted free grapes, difficult to stop
AP and dual credit classes get the students higher GPAs. The AP tests are jokes half the time because you can make great grades all year but if your teacher doesn’t prepare you for the final test then you’ve wasted your time and money. Dual credit classes are a guaranteed college credit if you pass.
That little smart mouthed crimillegal likely already has a year or two of college under her belt from high school. With the year’s free ride from UT and the scholarships she’s received just for her illegal status (there are more of those than for your bright US white student - BTDT), she’ll get her degree for free.
After that, all she needs to do is kiss up to any uber lib Austin company or join La Raza and she’ll be running the city in no time. More “Keeping Austin Weird”.
she does have nice legs...
Heh. There are companies that won’t hire people with very high GPAs. Too often these high GPA students are simply eggheads with the ability to memorize for and pass tests but don’t really understand any of it.
Valedictorian with a 4.5 GPA?
What kind of sorry a$$ high school is this?
My local high school, the valedictorian had a GPA of 5.1, is a national level swimmer and he’s going to West Point.
