Wow, you need to grow some balls. You're not getting criticized, he was simply telling you that you need to be clearer when explaining things as to not mislead people. I'm not trying to be mean. I am glad you're trying to help and that you're a legal citizen and support DREAM, but people are going to correct you if your post does not have the right information because some people might believe it.
And what he said is correct. As long as you're undocumented (if your visa is expired) and you meet all the other requirements, you are eligible for in-state tuition in California. Check out the link he sent you; nowhere in it does it say that you're not eligible if you have an expired B1 or B2 visa. Actually, nowhere in it does it ask you to write down what kind of visa you have.
I would call the school and find out why exactly he was denied, because if that was the reason, it is not a valid one.
