It’s not just liberals who believe that undocumented immigrants should have access to college in this country. The Education Gadfly, a news bulletin put out by the Thomas B. Fordham Institute, says this week: “Concern about America’s out-of-control borders is not ill-founded, of course, but it’s difficult to envision a more punitive and ineffective solution to the problem than the one South Carolina has embraced.”

If you’ll recall, South Carolina has enacted a law barring undocumented students from its colleges and universities.
