The president of American University on Tuesday rejected calls to become a “sanctuary” campus, but offered her support to students who could be affected by the Trump administration’s decision to rescind President Obama’s immigration initiative known as the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program.

“While some presidents have declared their campuses as ‘sanctuaries,’ we agree with the findings of many other universities and respected immigration attorneys that asserting such a status would have no basis in the law,” American University President and former Health and Human Services Secretary under President Obama, Sylvia Burwell, said in e-mail to students obtained by the Washington Examiner Tuesday.
