Hunter College president says ICE barred from campus without legal orderHunter College President Nancy Cantor issued a campus-wide announcement on Jan. 28 stating that the college will not permit Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) personnel on the New York City campus unless legally compelled to do so.The message, titled “A Call to Find Common Cause,” was published on Hunter College’s website and framed as reassurance to immigrant students amid national unrest over immigration enforcement.“Consistent with the rule of law and CUNY policy, Hunter College does not permit law enforcement agents, including Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) personnel, to enter our properties except when compelled to do so by law,” Cantor wrote in the announcement.The statement references recent events in Minneapolis as “grievously disturbing” and emphasizes protections and supports the college says it has in place for members of the campus community, “regardless of citizenship status.”Cantor highlighted several immigration-related resources, including Hunter’s Immigrant Student Success Center, “Know Your Rights” materials from the ACLU, and connections to CUNY-wide and community organizations.The message also notes that Hunter is a member of the Presidents’ Alliance on Higher Education and Immigration, described as a national coalition that engages in public policy advocacy and provides toolkits related to federal immigration enforcement and actions affecting international students and scholars.In addition, the announcement promotes campus programming tied to immigration issues, including events within the college’s “Promoting Civil Discourse and Intellectual Dialogue” series and a Humanities Action Lab event focused on immigration and incarceration.
