THE HIGH COST OF IMMIGRATION DETENTION CENTERS
This study introduces the high costs associated with immigration detention centers. Models will demonstrate the significant difference that goes into funding for immigration detention centers compared to Alternatives to Detention Programs, both which are funded by taxpayers dollars. My research explains how the continuation of mass deportation and detention would have negative effects on the economy. Potential for new jobs and increased human capital would halt, and many families and US-born children would be impacted negatively by the effects of deportation and detention. Policies which focus more on funding Alternative to Detention and citizenship would be beneficial.
Post-Grad Plans
Post-Grad Plans
The pandemic really changed my perspective for what I want to do after graduation. At first I planned on going straight into the work force by beginning a career in advertisement and marketing. Then after a few years apply to grad school for Economics. However, after living through a still very apparent pandemic I have begun to realize that I have artistic dreams that I want to pursue. I am giving myself a year to chase after my dreams of becoming an actor. I think it is better to try rather than to live the rest of your life wondering what if.
