This article does a good job of showing how complicated this issue is by going beyond the simplistic arguments for or against providing in-state tuition to undocumented students. Good job!

Human trafficking stories have not been as widely publicized as other immigration issues have dominated the conversation. Human trafficking still happens all over the world, and reform is needed to address this issue.

The issue of immigration in the United States is widely reported, but there lacks the comparable amount of coverage in other nations. This story illustrates how immigration in Europe is also a contentious issue and the struggles these countries encounter.

I think this report is a good example of how not every group should be characterized in the same way. Latinos, like other groups, are complex and multi-faceted. I think that is why the results of the survey are so divided.

This story raises a good issue regarding the undocumented immigrants who are currently in the removal process. While it makes sense that the U.S. wouldn't want to house undocumented immigrants who are violent criminals, it look likes all crimes are being painted with the same brush. And we know there can be vast differences in the types of crimes committed.

The monopolies of companies like Blue Cross Blue Shield have been reported, but I wasn't familiar with the situation in Michigan. While I think this sheds some light on the topic, I think more background information would have been helpful.

This is a pretty shocking story that is preventing qualified students from receiving an education. If undocumented students aren't eligible for financial aid, why are some Georgia schools saying they will allow undocumented students if they pay out-of-state tuition?

This story does a good job of touching on a variety of issues with immigration reform, mayoral race and federal investigations. But it is difficult to delve into these issues that can be so comlpex.

This is a story that examines both sides using hard data. It is a good example of how the same information and research can be used by opposing viewpoints to pursue their agendas.

With the United States immigration topic heating up, it is important to remember what issues other countries are facing in terms of immigration. Perhaps the U.S. can see which methods are worth exploring and which ones are ineffective.

It is important that this issue is being brought to light in a way that is not as black-and-white as has been portrayed in mainstream media. Maybe this can in some small way help bring about more thoughtful discussion.

I found the links within the blog to be especially helpful in supporting the author's position. While this is an opinion piece, I think it raises some very valid questions.

Yes, this story does a good job of explaining what the issues are and possible solutions. But it is lacking some of the context.

This story brings attention to an issue not widely reported on. Even after searching online, I could find very little on the general topic.

I think the statistics provided in this column shed light on the issue of undocumented immigrants coming into the U.S. But I noticed the author might be making an assumption that the immigrants are mostly from Mexico. The data presented doesn't indicate the countries of origin, so this could either be better explained or omitted.

The story is a good illustration of the ongoing debate over what laws fall within the jurisdiction of individual states versus those exclusive to the federal government.
