Illegal immigration on the mind of NKU group
HIGHLAND HEIGHTS - A new political group has sprung up at Northern Kentucky University that is aimed at informing students about what they say are the perils of illegal immigration.
College Students for Security (CSS), a conservative group that was born during NKU College Republicans meeting, focuses on combating illegal immigration in the United States.
“As College Republicans, we had the idea to take the single issue of illegal immigration and focus on it,” NKU College Republican President Eric Cranley said. “This was such a hot topic during the elections and an issue that a lot of campaigns focused on.”
Steve Ward, a member of College Republicans and a founding force behind CSS, said he hopes the group will soon become recognized by the university.
“We have 15 people already signed up so all we need now is a faculty advisor,” Ward said. “We haven’t asked anyone yet to be the advisor but we’re getting ready to.”
Ward and Cranley are both senior Business Information Systems majors and they said that while the group was the brainchild of the Republicans, it’s really a group for anyone concerned with national security.
“Immigrants crossing the boarders and coming in freely affect a lot of things,” Ward said. “We’re not looking to protest anything, the group just wants to inform students about what is going on in the world. With our boarders being so open, any unknown terrorist can come in.”
