Community College immigration report

I wrote a story last month (click here) about the N.C. Community College system's efforts to sort out questions about allowing undocumented students into classes. (Audio on the topic is at this post.)

At the time, consultants were giving an oral report to the community college board on their findings. Today, they handed over a written report detailing the history of the immigration question here and comparing North Carolina to other states.

I wasn't able to make the meeting down in Asheboro, but after a quick reading of the report it looks like the consultants offer up three different policy options: ban undocumented kids all together, allow them to come in a in-state rates, or a middle road that would end up charging them more for access to the community college system.

In my quick reading of the report, I didn't see a recommendation that the system go down any one of those three paths.
