Minnesota officials are investigating the detention of a University of Minnesota graduate student by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement at an off-campus residence. University leadership received no prior notification about the detention and were not informed by federal agencies. The identity of the student remains confidential, raising concern among local leaders. Minnesota’s Senator Amy Klobuchar and Governor Tim Walz have expressed their distress over the situation, emphasizing the importance of international students and demanding transparency from federal authorities. The university is providing legal support and resources to the detained student while awaiting answers.
The detained student is enrolled in business school at the university's Twin Cities campus. University officials said the school is providing the student with legal aid and other support services.
The University of Minnesota is an international destination for education and research, and we need answers regarding the student’s detention and its implications.
