Universities in Illinois are joining together in opposition to President Trump’s immigration order.  Just about every one of Illinois’ public universities, and a number of private schools issued statements yesterday pledging support for international students in the face of the President’s ban on travel from some several mostly-Muslim countries.  The university presidents all say they’re committed to open and inclusive learning environments for all students.
