I don't have a problem with illegals attending college. I understand the issues with our tax dollars paying for it but, some illegals know nothing other than the United States. However, I do have a problem with them playing athletics in college and getting scholarships for it. That money should go to someone who is a legal citizen.

What about other programs such as welfare and tax paid scholarships? Should those be reserved for Americans or only sports?

Two Questions: Do you really want people to be able to "buy" people (13th amendment)
& why punish the immigrant who came here legally on a greencard by not letting him get the scholarship and instead giving it to a criminal?
