They work with and for their members to strengthen public trust in research through education and dialogue.
KNOW YOUR RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES SESSION – FOR FACULTY AND STAFF
What do you do if Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) comes to your classroom looking for a student? What if you are asked for a list of undocumented students? What are impacted students concerned about? What resources are available for impacted students? If you are interested in the answers to these and other questions, and want to learn more about supporting undocumented students at OSU, join us for a Know Your Rights & Responsibilities Session for Faculty and Staff with OSU’s Undocumented Student Care and Wellbeing Committee and immigration lawyer Maria Cobarrubias on Thursday, February 22 from 12-1pm OR 2-3pm in the MU Multipurpose Room (MU 13). Coffee & water will be provided. RSVP by Monday, February 19 at http://dce.oregonstate.edu/rights. Walk-in attendance available depending on space availability.
