Douglas A Kibbee
Alejandro Lugo
Gale Sumerfield
4:00 pm

Third Floor, Levis Faculty Center 919 W. Illinois St. Urbana

Event Description

How are nations around the world dealing with the challenges presented by immigration? How do US policies differ from those in other societies? Are our own national policies addressing the most important issues and how might we reform these policies?
Each of our speakers will address the issue of immigration policy from a different point of view -- the European Community nations, Mexico, and the United States in comparative perspective.  Then we open the floor for your questions and ideas on the subject.
