Miramar College will be demonstrating their support for undocumented students by joining community colleges across California in Undocumented Student Action Week October 16-20.
San Diego Miramar College will be holding a wide range of virtual and in-person workshops, panel discussions, and resource events in support of undocumented students and immigrants.
Students are encouraged to visit the College's Dreamers Center which provide programs and services to help empower undocumented students to achieve their academic and personal pursuits and become active members of the community. The Center serves as a resource to help students with access to higher education, advocacy and educational materials, campus-based and community services, current events, engagement activities, legal aid referrals, legislative updates, and more.
