The Undergraduate Senate (UGS) has officially endorsed the upcoming campus-wide walkout and teach-ins scheduled for Friday. These events are part of a larger nationwide student strike aimed at protesting violence associated with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
By passing the bill, the UGS has shown solidarity with students and community members participating in these actions to raise awareness and call for change regarding immigration enforcement practices.
**Why this matters**
The UGS’s support highlights the role of student governance in responding to social and political issues affecting the campus community. The walkout and teach-ins provide a platform for dialogue and education on immigration policies and their impacts, fostering engagement among students and staff.
