MSJC Applauds Supreme Court Decision to Uphold DACA Program

黑料不打烊 (MSJC) commends to uphold the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program.

It鈥檚 been a long time coming for the roughly 700,000 Dreamers the ruling personally affects nationwide.

鈥淲e at 黑料不打烊 applaud the decision. This is a long-overdue victory, not only for Dreamers, but for all of us. The diversity on our campuses and in our communities enriches all of us and we will continue to stand by all of our students to ensure they succeed," said Superintendent/President Dr. Roger Schultz.

MSJC was selected to partner with the Perris-based TODEC Legal Center to provide free legal support services to faculty, staff and undocumented students at the college. Learn more at msjc.edu/undocudreamers/todec.html

鈥淲e know that education is the path to building a strong community and improving livelihoods. We鈥檙e glad this issue has been resolved and that our DACA students can focus on achieving their educational dreams without concern of their status,鈥� Dr. Schultz said.

The DACA program allowed undocumented individuals who were brought to the United States as infants or minors to attend colleges and universities and get jobs so they can contribute to this country and help our communities. Many of the individuals in the DACA program have no memory of a home outside of the U.S. and consider this country their home.

MSJC reaffirms that it fully supports all of its students, regardless of immigration status, race, religion, age, gender, sexual orientation or any other demographic. The college protects student privacy, which under federal law requires the college to keep student information confidential.

MSJC will continue to uphold its mission and values that call for providing 鈥渜uality, accessible, equitable and innovative educational programs鈥� to all of our diverse populations.
