Navigating Immigrant Illegality: Higher Education and Student Affairs Professionals’ Experiences With Undocumented Students In The Southern United States
Abstract: For this reflexive essay, I examine how immigration policy influences the student affairs profession, with a particular focus on undocumented students. I will first review how immigration and student affairs intersect. Then, I will discuss ideologies that shape Southern student affairs. Finally, I will share brief findings from my research and what I have learned from Southern student affairs professionals who work with undocumented students.
