Colleges here in NJ began requiring green cards or official immigration
visas before students could register for ESL programs.  They were
"threatened" with unannounced raids, if they did not comply.  Now a number
of colleges have very quietly backed off this and are admitting students
without proof.

Last month, adult ed. programs in Florida were asked to provide citizenship 
information on student registration forms.

In our view, this 'request' blantantly violates the Florida Consent Decree, 
so teachers in Alachua Cty. have so far resisted providing the 'requested' 
information.

Any discussion in other counties?

Thank you.
