WASHINGTON, DC,Oct. 11, 2019: On Twitteryesterday, President DonaldTrump falsely declared theDeferred Action for Child-hood Arrivals (DACA) pro-gram unlawful, reiterated hisadministration’s desire tohave the Supreme Court endthe popular and successfulprogram, and called for law-makers to work on legisla-tion – a transparent attemptto hold Dreamers hostage inan attempt to win radicalchanges to our immigrationsystem.

According to FrankSharry, Executive Directorof America’s Voice: “DACAis lawful, popular and ben-eficial to both hundreds ofthousands of Dreamers andthe country as a whole. TheTrump administration’sdrive to kill DACA is unlaw-ful according to multiplefederal courts. Young immi-grants who grew up pledg-ing allegiance to our flagdeserve to be formally rec-ognized as the Americansthey already are. Trump’s at-tempt to ruin their lives inpursuit of a racist and xeno-phobic agenda deserves togo down in history as one ofthe ugliest chapters of thisugly presidency.

“President Trump andStephen Miller’s game is asobvious as it is disgusting.They are determined to cre-ate and then exploit the endof DACA and the despera-tion it would cause to lever-age legislation that wouldradically restructure ournation’s immigration sys-tem. They want to codifyinto legislation what theyare currently attempting toimplement by administra-tive fiat – slash legal immi-gration, end legal immigra-tion categories used mostlyby people of color, gut asy-lum for refugees, indefinitelydetain kids and families, andbuild an ineffective andcostly border wall. All poli-cies that would never have achance of enactment asstandalone measures.

“They won’t get awaywith it. Following Trump’sdecision to end DACA in Sep-tember 2017, Trump talkeda good game while Millermade sure the White Housetorpedoed every serious bi-partisan effort to achieve alegislative deal. Their realgame is to combine hostagetaking with a shamelessshakedown. Sound familiar?

“The bigger question iswhether the Supreme Courtwill, once again, enableTrump’s radicalism by end-ing DACA.

“To date, SCOTUS hasauthorized the Muslim ban,approved Trump’s nationalemergency declaration thatallowed him to raid militaryprojects to build his borderwall, and greenlighted thereturn of asylum applicantsto violent conditions in coun-tries they passed through ontheir way to America. End-ing DACA would be yet an-other blow – to immigrantssettled in America and to theSupreme Court’s reputa-tion.”

GRCC offering Saturday classes to makecollege more accessible

students overall.“Our mission is to

serve the people ofWest Michigan, andwe are finding moreways to connect with them,”GRCC Provost Brian Knetlsaid.

“The expanded offeringson Saturdays are great oppor-tunities for current students,new students, or people whowere working toward a de-gree and were interrupted. Thetraditional schedule often isnot an option for studentswho are working around jobsand family obligations. Manyof them can benefit from theseexpanded offerings.”

The Saturday classescomplement current offeringsthat provide flexibility to stu-dents, including onlineclasses and hybrid classes thatallow students to work onlinein addition to classroom ses-sions. The college also is ex-ploring an expansion of thecurrent seven-week classschedule in some areas.

The efforts are intended tohelp people continue or startan education that can helpthem advance in careers andimprove – in some cases, trans-form – their lives. There were

about 280,000 adults inKent and Ottawa countieswho have not attended col-lege or have not completeda degree or certificate, ac-cording to 2017 statisticsfrom the federalgovernment’s AmericanCommunities Survey.

The changes come asstate leaders call for increas-ing the number of Michi-ganders with college de-grees or certificates, andadding programs to help re-duce costs of attending forresidents age 25 and older.

“GRCC offers high qual-ity programs with excel-lent faculty and we wantmore people in West Michi-gan to access that quality,”Knetl said. “A flexibleschedule helps make usmore accessible.”

People interested in en-rolling in Saturday classesor any other GRCC classescan contact the Admis-sions and Enrollment Cen-ter at (616) 234-3300 oronline at grcc.edu/enroll.

Walton helped theCuyahoga Community Col-lege Foundation raise morethan $1 million for Tri-C stu-dent scholarships by head-lining the Foundation’s an-nual Presidential Scholar-ship Luncheon.

The sold-out event tookplace Friday, Oct. 11, at theRenaissance Cleveland Ho-tel on Public Square. Morethan 1,000 people attendedthe luncheon, which was pre-sented by PNC Bank.

“This event is about mak-ing an investment in thepeople of Northeast Ohio,”said John Skory, chairpersonof the Tri-C Foundation. “Oursupporters make it possiblefor Tri-C students to pursuetheir ambitions.”

Since its inception in1992, the Presidential Schol-arship Luncheon has raisedmore than $21 million to helpstudents with financial needpursue higher education andachieve their academic andcareer goals.

Tri-C collaborated withBialosky Cleveland on the ex-pansion of Metro Campus Cen-ter, which grew from roughly70,000 square feet to 106,000square feet through better utili-zation of the 2-acre site.

The revamped buildingserves as the heart of the down-town campus. It houses a foodcourt; a Barnes & Noble book-store; student government of-fices; classroom space for HighTech Academy and other col-lege prep programs; and a con-ference hall for events and meet-ings.

Metro Campus Center be-comes one of four TriC struc-tures with LEED Gold certifica-tion, which represents a signifi-cant improvement in opera-tional efficiency, sustainabilityand health compared with abuilding simply built to code.

It joins the Advanced Tech-nology Training Center inCleveland, the Eastern Cam-pus Health

The death of long-timeLatina activist DoloresRodríguez is being feltdeeply by all whose lives shetouched in one way or an-other over the years. She isbeing remembered in manyroles: as mentor, educator,counselor, confidant—allmarked by her deeply-rootedCatholic faith, communityservice, and political activi-ties.

“We have a new angel inheaven. She was a friend tothe Hispanic community,”wrote Carmen Barbosa in anemail to friends and family.“She will keep an eye on us inheaven.”

Ms. Rodríguez, 78,worked for decades at theEconomic Opportunity Plan-ning Association (EOPA) asa case manager. The Univer-sity of Toledo graduate wasforced into retirement a fewyears ago following a stroke,according to family mem-bers. She passed away Tues-day, Oct. 8, 2019 in her NorthToledo home.

“With a heavy heart andfond memories, I extend mythoughts and prayers to thefamily of my Catholic sisterDolores Rodríguez, the manyfriends and family members,”wrote Roberto Torres in aFacebook post. “Yes, Lola, Ihave been going to church.Thank you ma for sharingyour journey in Christ withthis young disciple. You willbe missed.”

“Lola,” as she was calledby many, was well known formentoring young Latinas,always hoping they wouldpick up the mantel of Latinoleadership. Many of themtook toFacebook toextend theirthanks posthu-mously.

“I will missour talks, yourboldness, andyour humor,”wrote SabinaE l i z o n d oS e r r a t o s ,Adelante, Inc.executive di-rector. “Thankyou for youre n c o u r a g e -ment, advice,and supportover the years.Rest peace-fully, love youalways!”

“Our Latino communitysure did lose a great one. Mydeepest condolences andheartfelt prayers going out tothe family,” wrote YvonneRamos Ybarra, lead singer ofYvonne y Fuego. “May Godwrap his arms around youand may you celebrate theblessing of having such anincredible woman as a matri-arch to our Toledo. She willbe missed by many.”

“My condolences to theentire Rodríguez family. To‘Lola,’ thank you for yourkind heart, your compassion,and your dedication to theLatino community in NWOhio,” wrote Lisa Canales.

“The path you walked won’t beforgotten and the doors youopened will not be shut. Thepride for this Latino commu-nity will be felt in the souls ofthose you touched.”

“A true legend and an inspi-ration to so many. My condo-lences to the family. You willtruly be missed,” wrote GuisselleMendoza McDonald. RicoNeller of La Prensa wholeheart-edly agreed.

Born Dolores Garáy in SanAntonio on Nov. 22, 1940, Ms.Rodríguez first settled in North-west Ohio following her mar-riage at age 18 to SantosRodríguez, Jr. They first movedto Lima, where some of herhusband’s relatives resided. Thecouple later moved to Toledo.

Ms. Rodríguez first com-pleted an associate’s degree inchildhood development, thenworked as a preschool teacher

for a decade, part of that timewith the Head Start program.She later earned a bachelor’sdegree in counseling and guid-ance, both diplomas from UT.

Ms. Rodríguez spent manysummers teaching the childrenof migrant farm workers and wasemployed for a time as a socialservices worker at theGuadalupe Center. But herheart of community service,according to those who knewher, extended well beyondthat—ensuring strugglingLatino families had what theyneeded at Christmas andthroughout the year.

“What a beautiful woman,cool lady that was my friend,”wrote fellow Latino activist

Benito Lucio. “Condo-lences to her family. Lolaearned heaven with all herwork in the community.”

A devout Roman Catho-lic, she taught religious edu-cation classes and was ac-tive in Hispanic ministry forthe Toledo Catholic Dio-cese. She also was a long-time member of the formerSt. Hedwig Parish near herNorth Toledo home. Behindthe scenes, Ms. Rodríguezbecame known for ensuringyoung Latinas and Latinosattended church and teach-ing them the proper way toact as emerging leaders.

For all of her efforts, Ms.Rodríguez received 2003César Chávez Humanitar-ian Award from Adelante,where she did volunteerwork and could be seen atfundraisers galore. She wasalso a member of the Span-ish American Organizationand Latins United. Therewas rarely a Latino cause ornonprofit organization thatshe did not support in someway.

Ms. Rodríguez was apowerful force within theLucas County DemocraticParty, working tirelesslyto support candidates onthe campaign trail, help-ing with party fundraisers,and doing much of the be-hind-the-scenes work of apolitical activist that of-ten goes unnoticed.

“We are truly saddenedto hear of her passing. Shehad been a warrior for theentire Toledo area, theLatino community, and ourparty over the years,” wroteparty chairman Kurt Youngon the Facebook page ofthe Lucas County Demo-crats. “Our prayers are withall of her loved ones.”

Ms. Rodríguez was pre-ceded in death by her hus-band in 1974, by son Ri-chard in 2014, and by sonRobert in 2017. She issurvived by three daugh-ters and two sons, threebrothers and a sister, 23grandchildren, and 21great-grandchildren.

A funeral Mass was heldFriday morning, Oct. 11, atSts. Peter and Paul CatholicChurch.
