Press release:

The California State University is committed to being an inclusive and welcoming institution of higher education that is enhanced by the students, faculty, staff and alumni from our global community.

We are deeply troubled by President Trump’s recent executive order that stands in stark contrast to the fundamental tenets of the California State University. We believe in the free exchange of ideas globally, central to which is our ability to welcome and interact with those from around the world.

When something threatens our ability to think beyond our borders and learn from the world as a whole, we will oppose it. When something impacts anyone in our CSU community – especially the most vulnerable – it impacts us all.

Therefore, we oppose the divisiveness of the recent executive order, and we stand with state and national officials in requesting that the President reconsider this policy.

Brain dead liberals. Opposed to a 90 day hold from 9 countries known for rampant terrorism to give the US some time to redo the background check system?

I suppose these same libs were blaming Pres Bush for 9/11 as well.

Yeah, so I’m a spoiled angry child and I’m rebelling against the normal responsibilities of adulthood and I demand that a parental government meet my needs. Stupid Trump wants to take that away. How dare he!

Sorry but you people need to get a clue…..Obama did the same damn thing for the first 90 days he was in office in order to secure our boarders. This is standard saftey!! Quit your damn whining and crying and give OUR leader a chance to do his job!!! So sick of the publicity all the cry babies of America are getting.

His job is a public service position, to serve all Americans, not to $erve the $elect Few 60 million votes he won. The US population is 316 million & if he was doing his job to sevre the whole US population, maybe it would be quiet. Instead these people are exercising constitutional rights we barely still have. What’s so wrong with that? Even if i disagreed with them, i’d be more thankful we live in a country with noise makers than none at all!
