Odd, but Democrats like Elizabeth Warren don’t seem to cite things like this as contributing to the enormous cost of college:

From NBC News:

“Support for undocumented UC students has been a priority for Janet Napolitano since she became president of the University of California in the fall of 2013,” Steve Montiel, Napolitano’s press secretary told NBC News. “The $5 million she allocated for student services and financial support in 2013 was scheduled to end in June of this year, and now she’s providing another $7.5 million to UC campuses for the next three years. She’s also committing $5 million a year for at least three years to UC’s DREAM loan fund and $2.7 million over a three-year period to the Undocumented Legal Services Center at UC Davis, which will enable the center to expand the services it provides to students and then families.”

A former head of the Department of Homeland Security going out of her way to provide money for people in the country illegally helps sum up the Obama era nicely.
