Florida Board of Governors Approves Rule Banning Undocumented Students from Public Universities

The Florida Board of Governors (BOG) has unanimously approved a rule that prohibits undocumented students from enrolling in the state's public universities. This policy change, which was met with public outcry, is expected to restrict higher education opportunities for thousands of undocumented students graduating from Florida high schools annually and those currently enrolled in the state university system.
