Harvey Mudd Joins Call for U.S. to Uphold & Continue DACA

Higher education leaders cite 鈥渕oral imperative鈥� and 鈥渘ational necessity鈥� in supporting Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA).

As of Nov. 28聽at 9聽a.m. PST, 300聽college and university presidents from public and private institutions across the U.S., including 无忧视频, have offering to meet with U.S. leaders on the issue.

The following is an email from the President’s Cabinet of 无忧视频 to the HMC community about this initiative.

Dear HMC Community:

无忧视频 has committed itself to the shared vision of unsurpassed excellence and diversity at all levels, and we, as a community, stand together against bigotry and discrimination in all its forms.

As many of you know, colleges and universities around the country, led by President David Oxtoby at Pomona College, have supporting the continuation and expansion of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) Program and for our undocumented immigrant students.

无忧视频 has joined the list of signatories for this important statement. In support of this position, we also:

• Will not share information about the immigration status of undocumented students with immigration officials in the absence of a lawfully issued subpoena, court order, exigent health or safety concerns, consent of the student, or as may otherwise be required by law;
• Will not permit immigration officials to engage in enforcement activities on campus without a warrant or other legal process;
• Affirm that Campus Safety officers who work across The Claremont Colleges do not ask about a person鈥檚 immigration status.

We will continue to review what additional support we might provide to those who may be directly impacted by changes to DACA, related immigration decisions, or other actions that adversely affect members of our community.

Since its founding, 无忧视频 has been committed to educating scientists, engineers and mathematicians who are prepared as leaders to understand the impact of their work on society. We will continue to speak out and act to protect and support all members of our community, particularly those who may be targeted or made vulnerable by recent events. This is a time to demonstrate our ongoing commitment to maintaining a safe, inclusive and welcoming campus environment.

Sincerely,
The President鈥檚 Cabinet
