Colleges quietly recruiting illegal alien students

Colleges quietly recruiting illegal alien students | The American Mirror:
"Kansas State University has built a “certain underground, word-of-mouth” system for aggressively recruiting illegal immigrant students, regardless of whether they qualify for President Obama’s Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals.
Over the last several years Kansas State recruiters have used privately raised cash to provide grants and scholarships to illegal immigrant students, and word is starting to spread.
Students like Maria De La Torre – an illegal immigrant valedictorian of her high school class in Missouri, where non-citizens must pay out-of-state tuition – are getting sweetheart deals that cover virtually all of their education.
...Kansas State is certainly not the first university to court illegal immigrants, however.
The Associated Press earlier this month highlighted similar efforts by Western New Mexico University, as well as City University of New York, Loyola University Chicago Stritch School Of Medicine.
Officials at Western New Mexico University are targeting high performing illegal immigrant high schoolers “using a combination of social media and face-to-face recruiting.
“Through Facebook, Twitter and Instagram, the school works to convince students they’d find a hospitable environment for immigrants and possible financial aid at the 3,700-student university located in the mining town of Silver City,” according to the news service."
