Another Atlanta College Vows to Support Students Who Are in U.S. Illegally

Emory University is getting some backup from another metro Atlanta private school after a Republican lawmaker threatened to cut off state funding to any higher education institution that declares it will defy President-elect Donald Trump if he tries to deport immigrants who are illegally in the U.S.  Agnes Scott College President Elizabeth Kiss said in a statement that the Decatur school would continue to support undocumented students, known as “Dreamers,” who were granted a temporary reprieve from the threat of deportation by an executive order from President Barack Obama.
