Perhaps you've heard of the ship the MS St. Louis that in 1939 with 915 Jewish refugees from Germany that was denied entry into the US with an estimated 1/4 eventually dying in concentration camps. It was made into a book and a movie, "Voyage of the Damned" http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0075406/
I'm sorry but I believe that people who are not in the US legally should not be going to our universities, let alone receive financial subsidies. They should apply as citizens of the country that they are citizens of just as anyone else who is not a US citizen and be subject to the same set of rules. Universities, esp. state ones with lower in-state tuition costs have limited number of spots that should go to residents of the state. For every person who is not in the US legally that you admit into the state university at in-state prices, you are depriving someone who is a citizen and a member of the state. Completely unfair!
