The National University System was established in 2001 to meet the emerging challenges and demands of education in the 21st century. The System is uniquely aligned to connect a diverse population of students to a network of innovative educational programs that are relevant to their lives, careers, and the marketplace and are delivered in a format that respects competing life priorities.

Answer: YES
Long-term impacts, whether positive or negative on balance, depends upon how the U.S. acts and signals future continuing undocumented immigration. The endless system of court appeals under current U.S. immigration policies makes deporting these undocumented children essentially unenforceable. Processing such large numbers already costs millions even without considering long-range impacts of providing housing, healthcare and other welfare services. Whether they eventually become productive taxpaying job holders or additional long-term users of social services will also be determined. President Obama’s $3.7 billion supplemental request “merely” adds another 0.8 percent to already existing current year deficit spending of $492 billion.
