Community College Instructor Quits Over Barring Noncitizens From Adult Ed
Briefly

An instructor at Johnson County Community College resigned after the college mandated proof of immigration status for adult education programs. Daniel Tyx, passionate about teaching immigrant students, found the policy misaligned with his values. Tyx described the thriving English language learner program, noting the high attendance and enthusiasm of over 800 students. The resignation followed a federal executive order aimed at preventing taxpayer-funded benefits for undocumented individuals, prompting the U.S. Department of Education to revise its guidelines on eligibility for adult education programs.

The English language learner program at Johnson County Community College was thriving, with over 800 students who were consistently excited to participate in class.
