I took the title from this very good Bluesky thread by a journo. More links in the thread.

Wow—15 international students at the University of Central Florida have had their visas revoked as a result of the school's signed partnership with ICE. One was detained. Literally handed over to immigration cops by their own university. Despicable.

[...]

UCF is the largest university in FL by enrollment, and one of the largest in the country.

This is the only public comment they've made on the ICE partnership: "We are a public university that receives state and federal funding and are therefore obligated to comply with all state and federal laws."

Under UCF's agreement with ICE: "UCF police will select officers to go through training...Once officers complete training, it gives them certain federal immigration enforcement powers they normally would not have, including making arrests on immigration violations."

Campus cops deputized by ICE.
