SR: Deportation Of UI Scientist Wrong

"She's a damn good scientist," says Patricia Hartzell, professor of biology and biochemistry and former dean of Dziewanowska's department. "She's really good." But none of that matters to an immigration bureaucracy more concerned with the letter – if not the spirit – of the law and the proper way to pose for a photograph. So the 64-year-old scientist could be rounded up any day and deported. Never mind that she has a husband and son here/SR Editorial Board. More here.

Question: Do you agree?
