#Resist! Four Maine college presidents sign national letter decrying Trump education 'overreach'
Riley Board, Portland Press Herald, Maine
Tue, April 22, 2025
"Four Maine higher education leaders have signed on to a letter accusing the Trump administration of 'unprecedented government overreach and political interference.'
"Safa Zaki of #BowdoinCollege, Garry Jenkins of #BatesCollege, David Greene of #ColbyCollege and James Herbert of the #UniversityOfNewEngland all added their names to the letter, published Tuesday by the American Association of Colleges and Universities. More than 230 presidents of colleges, universities and scholarly societies throughout the country have signed so far.
" 'We are open to constructive reform and do not oppose legitimate government oversight,' the letter reads. 'However, we must oppose undue government intrusion in the lives of those who learn, live and work on our campuses. We will always seek effective and fair financial practices, but we must reject the coercive use of public research funding.'
"Though the letter primarily represents private institutions, leaders from a handful of state colleges and universities signed on, including University of Massachusetts Amherst Chancellor Javier Reyes and Eastern Connecticut State University President Karim Ismaili. A spokesperson for the University of Maine system declined to comment.
"In recent months, the Trump administration has pulled or threatened to pull federal funding from higher education institutions that don't comply with his agenda on #StudentProtesters, admissions practices and #TransgenderAthlete policies.
"The administration has also revoked the visas of hundreds of international students. On Friday, the American Civil Liberties Union [#ACLU] of Maine filed a class-action lawsuit against the Department of Homeland Security [#DHS] and other agencies behind the visa revocations, asking that a judge restore the visas of any New England students who have had them wrongfully removed, and protecting future students from the same actions."

OH immigrant lured to ICE office with a promise to remove his ankle monitor—they threw him in co jail instead.
Reyes-Rodriguez's church was in process of helping him seek legal asylum—now they're demanding his release from jail.
"He's a barber. Not a criminal."
Using an ankle monitor to track ppl living in the US seeking asylum isn't unusual.
He's married with a 7-yr-old son & a toddler daughter.
#ICE has so far refused to give any details.

"It should HORRIFY you that it took a major news story for #DHS
to say publicly that it imprisoned someone in SLV 5 weeks ago.
The man never once got a trial. No judge ever found him to be a public safety threat or a member of a gang. No due process/nothing.
After secretly sending Mr Prada to be imprisoned in SLV w/o a trial, DHS now has the chutzpah to claim that nothing untowards happened.
Until today -didn't even acknowledge that this had even happened."
-A Reichlin-Melnick
"ICE went into the database where foreign students are tracked & deleted the record of at least 1,700 or more people because they had some minor interaction with law enforcement — speeding tickets, fishing citations, & other minor things."
Judges are ruling that wasillegal."
-A Reichlin-Melnick
"ICE must reinstate legal status of 133 INTL students on Tues."
