Massachusetts College Students Join National Walkout for ‘Sanctuary Campuses’

In protest of President-elect Donald Trump’s immigration proposals, college students in Massachusetts joined a national walkout calling on their schools to protect undocumented immigrants on campus from potential federal deportation efforts. Organized under the hashtag #SanctuaryCampus, students at Harvard, Tufts, MIT, UMass Amherst, Amherst College, Mount Holyoke College, and other local universities initiated petitions and rallies Wednesday seeking assurances that their fellow classmates, who are undocumented immigrants, would not be deported.
