USU Social Work Students show their support for DACA in front of the Cache County Courthouse on September 12, 2017
USU Social Work students and alumni demonstrated support for Dreamers and the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program on September 12, 2017 in Logan, UT. The current administration has announced plans to end the DACA program, putting 800,000 individuals at risk of deportation.

We’re proud of our students who are stepping up to the challenge in Utah.
