\u00a0<\/em>San Marcos, CA — Palomar College President Dr. Joi Lin Blake issued a college-wide statement on September 4, 2017 reaffirming the college\u2019s commitment to support all students.\u00a0 In her email message, Dr. Blake stated, \u201cThe action to eliminate the DACA program would be contrary to our core values as an institution and principles of access, diversity, equity and inclusion which are central to our educational philosophy.\u201d\u00a0 She further reiterated the Palomar Community College District Governing Board\u2019s Resolution that \u201creaffirms its commitment to undocumented students, and all students who meet the minimum requirements for admission, regardless of immigration status\u2026.\u201d<\/p>\n

The College has counselors on-campus to meet with students who may be affected by today\u2019s White House decision.\u00a0 In addition, students are encouraged to refer to the Palomar College website AB 540 and Immigrant<\/strong>\u00a0Resources<\/a>\u00a0for campus and community resources.\u00a0 Earlier this year, the College retained immigration counsel to ensure up-to-date analysis and support regarding the implications for DACA students upon program repeal.<\/p>\n
