This report highlights the testimonies of perseverance and hope presented by the students at the hearing. These students share not only the formidable obstacles facing undocumented students but also the hope that comprehensive immigration reform will change their lives and allow them to fully contribute to American society. In an effort to make more information available to the public about the California and federal Dream Acts as well as the broader policy issues involving immigrant youth and higher education, the UCLA Center for Labor Research and Education will release a student publication in the summer of 2007.
