USC is a taxpayer funded university and is clearly using some of those funds to promote a sanctuary campus. Via Campus Reform: The University of Southern California is working to establish an “emergency fund” to cover travel and legal expenses for students impacted by President Trump’s executive orders on immigration. In an email sent last week to students enrolled in USC’s Price School of Public Policy, USC Graduate Student Government (GSG) Vice President Christina Gutierrez announced that the GSG had “nearly unanimously” passed a resolution titled “Denouncing President Trump’s Executive Orders Restricting the Refugee Resettlement Program and Travel from Seven Muslim-Majority Countries, and Reaffirming Support of Refugees, Muslims, Immigrants and Religious Pluralism.” The resolution not only demands that the administration issue a statement condemning the executive orders, but also that it increase funding for “mental health centers that serve Muslim, refugee, immigrant, international and other marginalized student groups,” as well as “provide culturally sensitive mental health services for individuals that hold more than one marginalized identity (LGBTQ+, Muslim, immigrant, refugee, undocumented, etc.).” According to Gutierrez, more than 250 USC students are directly affected by the orders, the second-largest number of any university in the country, prompting the GSG to add a provision to the resolution calling for “an emergency fund to cover travel and legal expenses of those students who are adversely affected.” A notation at the bottom of the resolution claims that the GSG Director of Campus Affairs has agreed to an initial allocation of $11,000 for the fund, which would come from the existing Campus Affairs budget. GSG board members and campus administrators, such as the Dean of Religious Life, are in the process of creating disbursement models modeled after the University of Michigan’s Rackham Graduate Student Emergency Funds.

The snowflake generation doesn't have a snowball's chance.
“The most dangerous man to any government is the man who is able to think things out... without regard to the prevailing superstitions and taboos. Almost inevitably he comes to the conclusion that the government he lives under is dishonest, insane, intolerable.” ~ H. L. Mencken
I'm disappointed, this article failed to include the Obama-era buzz phrases 'all hands on deck' and 'these are amazing people!'.

Maybe if I change my name to Jose Jiminez it will help. Now I may have to take a crash course and learn to speak Mexican. :-o

Impacted by our President's Executive order? Anybody who is in this country illegally and cannot prove they are here legal, needs to be deported. And if universities like these are going to flagrantly disregard his executive order and continue to aid and abet illegals, including fund for their travel and school expenses, then those universities need to be shut down permanently and their licenses taken away. This goes the same for the businesses that hire those illegals. Back in '95, customs agents were involved in numerous sting operations to bust down on businesses harboring and hiring illegals. Much of this was done in L.A. county. I remember watching this on the news. But it's not just our Southern borders we need to clamp down on but also the Northern borders as well. The University of Southern California is working to establish an “emergency fund” to cover travel and legal expenses for students impacted by President Trump’s executive orders on immigration.
