Best Practices for Keeping Our College Community Safe

• Inform students of their rights: If you can safely communicate with a student, let them know they have the right to remain silent and to request legal representation. They are not required to disclose their immigration status without legal counsel present.
• Remind individuals in your workplace of their rights: Students, faculty, and staff have the right to remain silent and are not required to disclose immigration status. Do not instruct or order anyone to remain silent; simply remind them of their rights.
• Conduct yourself professionally: Remain calm and respectful when interacting with immigration or law enforcement officials. Avoid casual conversation and do not provide any information about students or employees.
• Do not resist if ICE agents force entry: You may state, 鈥淚 do not consent to your entry,鈥� but do not physically resist. (Source: ACLU Northern California 鈥� 鈥淜now Your Rights if ICE Confronts You鈥�)
• Do not sign any documents. Wait for legal guidance before signing or acknowledging any paperwork presented by immigration or law enforcement officers.

Assembly Bill 130 (AB 130) of 2011, allows students who meet AB 540 criteria to apply for and receive non-state funded scholarships for public colleges and universities. Assembly Bill 131 (AB 131) of 2011, allows students who meet AB 540 criteria to apply for and receive state-funded financial aid such as institutional grants, community college fee waivers, Cal Grant and Chafee Grant.

DACA is an administrative relief that protects eligible immigrants who came to the United States when they were children from deportation. DACA gives undocumented immigrants: 1) protection from deportation, and 2) a work permit. The program requires that the DACA status and work permit be renewed every two years.

As a response to AB 130/131, the California Dream Act application was created to allow eligible AB 540 students qualify for California state grants (Cal Grant) and other financial aid benefits within California. Available each year, the California Dream Act grants access to the CCPG fee waiver, CSM Promise, and EOPS. We strongly encourage students to complete their CA Dream Application by the March 2nd priority deadline of each academic year. Additionally, undocumented students who are ineligible to apply to the CA Dream Act can still look into scholarship opportunities through our campus.
