“I’d feel like my safety was compromised…I wouldn’t feel very safe on a campus where people were being taken away…I just feel like it’s unfair — that they’d have to be taken away in a place where they should feel safe.”
“I would feel that it would be a violation of my civil liberty…As a Mexican- Salvadorian-American student, it does bring a bit of fear into my daily routine because my mother and father are both immigrants…and it wasn’t very easy for them to get here…I feel that to have such progress taken from you — no one should have to go through that fear.”
“I would feel very uncomfortable. I have quite a few friends who are here as immigrants. One of my best friends is here from Iraq, so it would scare me…I feel like this is a place that I’m supposed to be safe, and if my friends are feeling…attacked, it wouldn’t be good. I would feel upset.”
