Updates from the Campus

Last week, La Colectiva was featured in an article in the Daily Illini. The story focused on La Colectiva's work with the DREAM Act and what we are doing to garner support for this cause. We will be holding an event on the 23rd of April at Plym Auditorium in Temple Hoyne Buell Hall. The event will include a Forum/Panel that will aim to inform and educate individuals of the campus as well as individuals from the community on the importance of supporting the D.R.E.A.M. Act. The event will take place at 6:30 P.M. and will end at approximately 8:00 P.M. We encourage everyone to attend and to invite friends, T.A.'s, Professor's, etc. If you have any questions about this event, please send us an email at lacolectivarso@gmail.com.

In addition, we have contacted our Student Trustee, Paul Schmitt, and he has stated his support for the D.R.E.A.M. Act. This is just our first step in attempting to get the University to support the D.R.E.A.M Act. One way you can help is to contact your college Student Senator and ask them to pass a resolution reflecting their support for the cause.
