    Good morning,?

    Due to the recent activity of Immigration and Custom Enforcement (ICE) Officials across the country, Brazosport College President Vincent Solis has asked me to inquire about IHE policies/procedures if ICE showed up at your campus.? If you could please include what your policy/procedure outlines in the particular circumstances noted below.

    1. ICE shows up with a valid federal warrant for a specific individual who is an active student who is on campus attending a class.
    2. ICE shows up and requests to perform a “general sweep” of the campus looking to identify undocumented immigrants or those with expired student Visa’s.?

    ?I appreciate your assistance in this matter.?

    Foreign warrants are handled the same way regardless of whose warrant it is.

    Is there a compelling reason to serve the warrant during class, or can it wait until the class is over?

    In order not to disrupt the learning environment, we would utilize the department chair, Dean, or Provost’s representative to make contact with the professor and take the student to a nearby administrative office, where they will be met by us.? The arrested may be transported to our station for a brief period of time.? We would remove the person from the building with minimal fanfare (wait until next class starts) and by a direct route that minimizes contact with other occupants of the building.

    Notify Dean of Students, Director of International Programs, whoever you decide needs to know.

    Good morning.

    Since we don’t have any current protocols or a policy regarding this matter, I would like to be added to the list.

    Any information would be helpful.

    Best

    Steve
