The president of Fresno State University's student body acknowledged publicly that he is an illegal immigrant after an anonymous tip Tuesday to the college newspaper, according to a report Wednesday in the Los Angeles Times.

Pedro Ramirez attends the university on scholarships and pays in-state tuition. When he was elected as student body president last June, he told the administration he would serve without pay — a $9,000 stipend — because he could not lie on employment papers, the Times reported.

The disclosure comes amid a debate about whether the children of illegal immigrants, many of whom have spent their entire lives in the United States, should be given a path to citizenship or at least access to in-state tuition benefits at colleges and universities

I wonder what he filled in on his Fresno State University application regarding "Citizenship".

That California Supreme Court decision allowing illegals to pay in-state tuition at CA state colleges is a joke.

Pedro should be deported.

Why can't we hang him in the town square..?
He's not even a real person he's a Mexican or something like that

Ridiculusness aside... I wonder what his major is?

Civics would be delicious irony.

I was going to make a "Pedro offers you his protection" joke but someone beat me to the punch.

I suppose that what he is doing is a form of Thoreau-esque civil disobedience?

Takers?

Yep, first flight to Guadalajara. On the down side, you'd have to start cutting your own grass again, Ivytalk.

If I remember it goes something like this in legalese...
"Quod licet Iovi, non licet bovi"
