Abstract

In this reflection, the author—a communications officer for an international coalition of universities striving to serve the public through civic engagement— shares a personal story about undocumented student activism in the college arena. An undocumented student at the time, the author describes his first encounter with other activists, their impact on his leadership development, and how students around the country took part in a movement that led to executive changes to federal immigration policy.
