And Andrea Leeds Armstrong, of the university's committee on Virginia status, said last week after reading the memo, "I'm glad this decision came down," clarifying that students could make their own case separate from their parents. "Let me just say, I'm really happy to get this advice."

This week, the university asked Lopez to reapply for in-state tuition
Because he is 18 he can re-apply without the issue of his parents illegal status clouding the situation.
Ok folks, lets move along nothing more to see here..

They aren't be penalized. They got a free high school education. Pretty good for someone here illegally. Blame their parents for bringing them here if you want to blame anyone.

P.S. What the hell has this got to do with guns?????

It is no secret that Hispanics are more prone to gangs, especially when they live in the bad neighborhoods. The parents didn't bring him here, he was born here.
