Noted: Laura Minero, 26, is a PhD student in counseling psychology at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and has found strength in organizing and supporting other undocumented students. Her parents came to California from Mexico in 1995; her father works at a dairy and her mother at a meat-processing facility.
Even before Trump was elected, she and three other students founded a Dreamers organization at UW-Madison to raise scholarship money for undocumented students, who cannot apply for federal financial aid, and to provide emotional support for students because of the divisive campaign rhetoric.
