Cal Poly Pomona postponed its annual fall job fair this week after students, alumni and community members criticized its inclusion of Customs and Border Protection as an in-person recruiter, underscoring the heightened sensitivity about immigration agencies on college campuses this fall.

The interim president of the Los Angeles County campus with nearly 28,000 students — the majority of whom are Latino — said leadership responded to the criticism and decided to rethink their approach to job fairs.

So it looks like ICE wasn’t going to be there anyway, but the very notion gave the campus simpletons a chance to get all wee weed up and feel righteous.

The retarded College jerks. If they aren’t in love and kissing the butts of Muzzie terrorists, they are kissing the asses of foreign illegal alien invaders. Employers shouldn’t hire any retard with a college diploma. They are just subhumans who have been brainwashed and programed by the evil left.

Public service is noble. Protesting it, and job opportunities for others, is shameful. Civil service has been traditionally more stable than working in the private sector.

If I am in a hiring position again — and that is likely to happen next year — I cannot think of a single California or “Ivy League” school I’d hire anyone from.

Great way to expose the instigators of the protest and find out what illegal criminals or grifters they are trying to protect. Easily done.

Cal poly, Pomona used to be an almost impossible school to get into. My high school grades just weren’t up to it.
They must have changed a lot.
Full disclosure; I barely squeaked into Seattle U. and then Seattle Pacific U. some many years later. I graduated with Honors in Computer Science, class of “90” age 34.

Lots of regional state university students in the East would love to be hired by ICE (and get that $50k), with a move to CA just the adventurous icing on the cake.

what a shame how some large and costly (and in some instances taxpayer=supported like this one) colleges .... have rotted out

I won’t hire from any of these “enemy encampments” in our midst

hopefully, the taxpayers can get their heavy subsidies for these rotted out colleges terminated ASAP, and then turn the facilities over to some public good

Suspend any federal contracts, grants and all federal funding until the regents and administration facilitates recruiting.

Those “regional state university students in the East,” are smarter than you think! $50k is not enough and they want nothing to do with adventures in California!
