Morehouse College
Morehouse College President David A. Thomas publicly declared the historically Black men's college will not cooperate with ICE operations targeting students. "If immigration services were to show up in Morehouse, we would not cooperate," Thomas told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, calling deportation of students "not a moral practice."

Police Chief Charles Prescott added: "You're not going to drag people out of here in handcuffs."
