Binger Center for New Americans, accusing it of promoting “far-left immigration activism” by training students to shield undocumented immigrants with criminal records from deportation. The center reportedly hosts radical events like “deportation abolition” and issues advisories teaching attorneys how to “scrub” criminal records to avoid removal. Critics warn this undermines the legal system and Constitution, questioning whether law schools should be teaching activism over legal principles. The center’s Detainee Rights Clinic also trains students to navigate ICE, including advising them to distrust the agency. The university has not yet responded to the allegations, fueling debate over law schools’ role in social justice and immigration law.
