DREAM Act on Good Morning America: Undocumented Students Struggle Toward College

The chancellor at UC-Berkeley, Robert Birgeneau, wants these rules changed.
"I am a very strong believer that people should obey the law," says Birgeneau. "These people were brought here by their parents. Many of them don't even know they were here illegally. So we need to provide them with a pathway to make sure that they are obeying the law."
"We need to access and educate and provide opportunities to every single talented person that we have here in the United States," says Birgeneau. "And if there are too many talented people, then we need to expand our educational system to make room for them. The United States is in a really difficult situation now in terms of our competition internationally. We cannot afford to throw away exceptionally talented and ambitious people."
Take a second and forward this to your respective chancellor/major department dean/head. Ask them if they'd be willing to take the same stand and explicitly support the DREAM Act.
Just a thought....
