) reads: "Another Minnesota college student taken by ICE - this time in Mankato. University was not given heads up." Below it a letter from the Office of the President at Minnesota State University to the campus, it states "I am writing to share that last Friday, at an off-campus residence, one of our students was detained by officials from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). No reason was given. The University has received no information from ICE, and they have not requested any information from us. I have contacted our elected officials to share my concerns and ask for their help in stopping this activity within our community of learners. Our international students play an important role in our campus and community. They are a valued part of our campus culture. This action hurts what we try to accomplish as a universityโ€”supporting all learners to receive the education they desire to make the impact they want in their communities."

@georgetakei They say off campus residences, but many such residences are college owned. The question has to be asked as to how ICE knew the location of this person. The most likely answer imo is that it was provided to the either officially or unofficially from a university database.

In WA state, there were state government employees who would cough up addresses to federal law enforcement against state policy. The same sort of thing might be happening here.
