Student facing deportation delays graduation at UT Brownsville
Arturo Guerra, 21, a UT Brownsville senior and student government president, won a hold on his deportation after an immigration judge reviewed his case. He plans to graduate in December and perhaps complete a master's, while his lawyer hopes for DREAM Act passage. Guerra, who came to the United States with his mother and sisters at age 12, faces removal for illegally entering the US when he was 15. An indefinite stay leaves his future uncertain pending further hearings.
