Professors and Students Sue Trump Over Immigration Policies

In a series of lawsuits filed against former President Donald Trump, both professors and students from prestigious universities are challenging his administration's immigration policies. The lawsuits, initiated by academics and students at Columbia University and Cornell University, claim that Trump's policies have directly impacted their lives and careers.

At the heart of the legal actions is the accusation that Trump's immigration policies, particularly those enforced by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), have led to the wrongful deportation of students and the disruption of academic environments. Yunseo Chung, a student at Columbia University, and Mahmoud Khalil, another Columbia student, are among those who have filed lawsuits, alleging that their rights were violated due to these policies.

The professors involved in the lawsuits argue that the policies have not only affected their students but also hindered their ability to conduct research and teach effectively. The legal battles are drawing attention to the broader implications of immigration policies on higher education and the international academic community.
