LAS 236 - Undocumented Students: Americans or Not? 3 hours
The U.S. Supreme Court mandates that undocumented children be accepted as students, but, because of current immigration laws, they are not accepted as citizens. This puts these students in an ambiguous situation. For many, the U.S. is the only country they know and English is the only language they speak. They nonetheless face enormous barriers to obtaining legal employment or trying to enter college. In this seminar, students will explore the sophomore level themes by examining student narratives, academic discourse, legislation, public policy, and media attention to the issues of immigration reform, social and political marginalization, and access to higher education for undocumented students.
Prerequisite(s): Sophomores only.
