Tufts Student Speaks Publicly After Release From Immigration Detention

A federal judge ordered the release of Rumeysa Ozturk, a Turkish citizen studying at Tufts University on a student visa. She is one of thousands of students who face deportation, as the Trump administration escalates its attack on higher education.

: “We love you.” “In the last 45 days, I lost both my freedom and also my education during a crucial time for my doctoral studies. I am so excited to get back to my studies, community, friends, professors and my students. America is the greatest democracy in the world, and I believe in those values that we share. I have faith in the American system of justice.”
