Tutoring in the community and interacting with immigrants in the classroom is great way to put faces to the issues that we read about in the news so that we can learn about the immigration process and become educated on issues concerning the refugee and immigration population.
Check back on the website periodically to read about and discuss various immigration stories and issues that appear in the news.
Read the story: Missed court date, she'll be deported
This story concerning the likely deportation of Hoa Nguyen of Minneapolis appeared in Saturday's Minneapolis Star Tribune. "Nguyen, 29, came here from Vietnam on a student visa 10 years ago, earned a bachelor's degree at Luther College and a master's degree at the University of Minnesota, got married [to a US citizizen] and made a life in Minneapolis". She was jailed last month after an immigration hearing and is scheduled to be deported in the upcoming weeks.
