Deportation of College Student Raises Concerns During Thanksgiving Travel

The recent deportation of a 19-year-old college student from Babson College while attempting to fly home for Thanksgiving has sparked protests and ignited a debate about immigration policies. Detained at Boston’s Logan Airport, the student was reportedly removed to Honduras despite a court order that allowed her to remain in the U.S. This incident has drawn attention from peers and faculty, who are voicing their support and condemning the actions of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Many express concern over the implications for international students and the overall climate of fear surrounding holiday travel amid strict immigration enforcement. Legal advocates highlight that the student could have contested her deportation as a minor, raising questions about the mishandling of her case. Babson College is reportedly providing support to the deported student as her case continues to unfold.
