Undocumented students at NC Technical College Want Change In Tuition Policy

ABC NEWS article:

RALEIGH, N.C. (WTVD) --  "Dozens of undocumented students at Wake Technical Community College are pushing for changes to a policy that requires them to pay out-of-state tuition."

As one student puts it, "We all have dreams, we have American dreams that we want to pursue, and we just want to fulfill them." 

But isn't the first step to the "American" dream American citizenship?

Read the article:
Undocumented students push for change to tuition policy. 

One student said, "I think it's discriminatory because they give us the opportunity already to be able to study here. 

Are we as a nation setting these students up for failure by allowing them to attend universities that already have policies designed to prohibit abuses to the system?  Wouldn't our money be best used to provide tutoring for American citizenship rather than a college education that proves to be a dead end street without citizenship? The cart seems to be pulling the horse in this topsy turvy set up.
