The Rise Of Speed Deportation And The Role Of Discretion, Shoba S. Wadhia
The Rise Of Speed Deportation And The Role Of Discretion, Shoba S. Wadhia
Journal Articles

Noncitizen Students And Immigration Policy Post-9/11, Victor C. Romero
Journal Articles
The purpose of this article is to describe the post-9/11 world for noncitizen students and scholars in light of recent federal legislation, specifically focusing on three laws: the USA-PATRIOT Act of 2001, the Border Commuter Student Act of 2002, and the proposed Capital Student Adjustment Act, currently pending in Congress. In all three, Congress is seen trying to walk the fine line between providing fair access to postsecondary education to noncitizen students and guarding against the possibility that such institutions are being used as a springboard for terrorist activity.
