In response to the Trump administration's recent actions subjecting more than one thousand international students to visa revocations or other involuntary changes to their immigration status, the AAUP has written to college and university counsels to clarify that they are not legally bound to deny legal assistance or housing to students facing these threats. While some institutions have provided support to noncitizen students in such cases, others have hesitated to do so for fear of being held criminally liable. The AAUP letter addresses concerns that colleges and universities may have about "harboring" individuals vulnerable to threats of detention or deportation by the Trump administration.
