HOST: Northwestern officials are preparing students and staff for possible immigration raids on campus. WNUR’s Brandon Kondritz explains.
The message is simple. If ICE comes to campus… comply.
A letter sent to certain departments lays out seven steps to protect Northwestern’s students and staff.
Among them? Check the warrant. Call your supervisor. Don’t encourage resistance. Stay as a witness. And know your rights.
Weinberg second year and lifelong Chicagoan Noah Padilla shares those rights on his Instagram story. He’s glad the university is doing the same.
NOAH PADILLA: Northwestern, you know, views everyone on its campus as simply human. That is a very comforting thing to know that Northwestern made that commitment to protect the people we love.
The university says it’ll connect arrested individuals with “resources” if necessary.
