>And though my thread title was about paying, it's more than that. Other than the most basic health care, I don't believe anyone here illegally should be given anything. Especially a college education. How are they allowed to fill out paperwork if they are undocumented? I can't even cash a $5 check if I don't have a valid license. They should not be here. Simple.

Which part of the "must pay out-of-state tuition, $7,465 for a full class load, which is more than the actual cost" did you understand as "given"? I do not consider anything one has to pay for as "given". It's paid.

They should not be here, but that's the feds' job to handle. Now since they ARE here, everyone wants to make a buck on them, including the colleges. 's just business.
