As a Dreamer Ally, I support Dreamer students and promote their sense of belonging and safety as they pursue their higher education goals. I commit to not sharing your status with anyone if you reveal it to me, but also remind you that when interacting with faculty, staff, and offices around campus, you are never required to reveal your immigration status.
