Nearly 100 students, including many undocumented immigrants [illegal aliens], have applied to Metro State University of Denver since the school’s Board of Trustees approved a lower tuition rate for non-residents who aren’t legal U.S. citizens, FOX31 Denver has learned.

And despite the threat of litigation and an opinion from Colorado Attorney General John Suthers questioning the legality of the Board’s decision, the school is moving ahead and reviewing those applications for the fall 2012 semester.
