University of Michigan isn’t Playing Along with Donald Trump’s ‘#Muslimban’ as they Refuse to Release Immigration Status of Students

The University of Michigan has released a
statement on Saturday, taking a stand against
Donald Trump’s #MuslimBan, by refusing to
release the immigration status of their students.
In a statement, the University repeated their
policy on non-discrimination, privacy, and public
safety. Here are some of the key points in the
press release:
– The University of Michigan welcomes and
supports students without regard to their
immigration status. We will continue to admit
students in a manner consistent with our non-
discrimination policy. Once students are admitted,
the university is committed to fostering an
environment in which each student can flourish.
– The university complies with federal
requirements associated with managing its
international programs. Otherwise, the university
does not share sensitive information like
immigration status.
– Campus police do not inquire about or record
immigration status when performing their duties.
– In accordance with federal law, the enforcement
of immigration law rests with Immigration and
Customs Enforcement and Customs and Border
Protection. Campus police will not partner with
federal, state, or other local law enforcement
agencies to enforce federal immigration law
except when required to do so by law.
– The university maintains a strong commitment
to the privacy of student records for all students,
consistent with state and federal laws. We do not
provide information on immigration status to
anyone except when required by law.
– The university offers in-state tuition to
undocumented students who meet certain
conditions.
– The university offers confidential counseling
services to all students.
Universities across the country are scrambling to
reassure students and prevent them from leaving
the country.
