Impacts of the Executive Order

Executive Order: “Protecting the Nation From Foreign Terrorist Entry Into the U.S.” was signed on Jan. 27, 2017 barring immigrants from seven countries entry into the United States.  The Institute for Global Engagement and the College community at large has long recognized that diversity and inclusion is a core value for success at our institution.  While we are aware that various aspects of this order may be modified, we are actively monitoring the situation and how it could affect any students, faculty or staff members.
