Texas Colleges, Universities Get $2B In Federal Stimulus Money. Half Must Go Directly To Struggling Students. Patch 1 hr ago
Texas colleges and universities will get an additional $2 billion in the latest round of federal coronavirus stimulus funding half of which must be used for financial grants to students struggling due to the pandemic, the U.S. Department of Education announced Tuesday.
The federal government also announced that undocumented and international students can now receive those emergency funds, too, rolling back a Trump administration rule that allowed schools to distribute grants only to students who qualified for federal financial aid, which excluded non-U.S. citizens.

In late March, the sun smoldered on the onion fields outside the city of Edinburg, less than twenty miles north of the United States–Mexico border. Dozens of migrant workers and their families partook in the annual harvest
el rebote de la cebolla, as they call it. Some were teens participating for the first time; others, in their late sixties, struggled to keep up with the pace of their more vigorous counterparts. A few supervisors in the field had legal residency status, but most of those picking onions were undocumented.
