SANTA MARIA, Calif. -- A student of mine was upset because children of illegal immigrants qualified for lower resident fees to attend college in California.
She, on the other hand, a foreign student from a Western European country, had to pay out-of-state fees that are considerably higher. In her mind, illegals in the United States are treated better than legal residents.
At first thought, she appeared to be right, but when you scratch beneath the surface, the truth is quite different.
