“Faculty are being supported in making case-by-case adjustments for students in extraordinary circumstances”
So, is the school admitting that there are people there who are in the country illegally?

Amid ICE enforcement, CSULA allows staff, students to work from home
California State University, Los Angeles, is allowing students and staff to work from home as U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement in the area and across the state takes place, according to news reports.
The university provost stated in a letter to faculty that students are “scared to take public transit and fearful of driving to campus,” the Los Angeles Times reported, adding scholars were told they have “the option of working remotely for a limited time due to extraordinary circumstances they are facing.”
“Recent events in the LA area — including the presence of heavily armed immigration agents in MacArthur Park earlier this week — have left many in our community concerned for their safety,” Provost Heather Lattimer wrote Wednesday.
In that high-profile incident Monday, ICE agents targeted a popular Los Angeles park that has a reputation of being what some call an open-air drug market and haven for criminals and gang members. But Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass descended on the scene, voicing anger at the operation.
Lattimer, in her letter, also wrote: “This week also marks the 6-month anniversary of the wildfires that disrupted the lives of many in our community. As a campus we recognize the significant harm that has resulted from these events and reaffirm our commitment to supporting our students, faculty, and staff and prioritizing your safety and well-being.”
There have been no reported raids on the campus, KTLA reported.
The CSULA website states its summer school session launched May 27 and runs through Aug. 9.
Erik Frost Hollins, executive director of strategic communications for CSULA, told the Fox News the public university is making “case-by-case” decisions for students, staff and faculty.
“Faculty are being supported in making case-by-case adjustments for students in extraordinary circumstances,” Frost Hollins said. “Similarly, deans and department leads are supported in making case-by-case adjustments for faculty and staff. These are all individual adjustments we can make within current policy. Importantly, we do intend to have a full and engaging on-campus student experience in the fall.”

Pay attention to the propaganda. The story that the left has been circulating is that EVERYONE is at risk of attack from lawless, masked ICE agents.
They want everyone to be afraid. So while this measure is definitely intended to protect illegals, it is also intended to make all the legal residents think that they should also stay home, just in case.
If you follow the Democrat narrative parallelism all the way to the end, you see that the part of “the concentration camp” in today’s performance is played by the (mostly socialist) countries these people were born and brought up in.
Gee, that’s not a good look.
