Alexandra, freshman: “When people are being arrested and are then in police custody, they aren’t aware that they can say that they don’t want to talk to ICE. … Knowledge is power and that makes us free.” http://bos.gl/zRgGBl9 pic.twitter.com/2rOnNrbE0E

Prinsesa, freshman: “I have a lot of family that has been trying to get their citizenship. … My aunt, it took, like, 20-something years to get her citizenship. … Since she was older, it was much harder for her to learn English and pass the exam.” http://bos.gl/zRgGBl9 pic.twitter.com/ZrGdITL79q

Benny, freshman: “I came legally, but there are some parents that can’t do it legally. They should have more rights instead of being seen as criminals for trying to give their children a better future.” http://bos.gl/zRgGBl9 pic.twitter.com/QIj0npbrAG
