DACA is a program under Homeland Security that allows children who are undocumented, in or graduated from high school and crimi- nal-record-free to apply to for temporary de- ferment of deportation from the United States. DACA participants are given an employment card, allowing them to apply to colleges and work legally. The program benefits approxi- mately 800,000 participants — called DREAM- ers after the bipartisan Development, Relief and Education for Alien Minors (DREAM) Act. This was a bill introduced several times which had bipartisan support from legislators including Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-UT. “DACA provides people who grew up in America a chance to stay in America,” Jackson said. The issue of illegal immigration was brought to the forefront of American politics in the 2016 presidential campaign, and in some cases transcends partisan lines.

By Matthew Harris NEWS WRITER

Utah State University is making an even greater push this month to cement itself as the top destination for students who love getting outdoors. USU will be in competition against over 90 colleges across the U.S. in the annual Outdoor Nation Campus Challenge spanning from Sep. 18 to Oct. 15. All outdoor recreation programs in Cache County are either involved or can be otherwise made use of during the competition. The purpose of the challenge is a nationwide initiative to increase outdoor activity and recreation and, in turn, physical activity, particularly among college adolescents. Chase Anderson, the director of development for the USU School of Applied Sciences, Technology and Development, submitted the application months ago on behalf of the university. He first heard about through an outdoor-related publication he subscribes to. “We thought it would be a great way to rally the university behind something that our program believes in,” Anderson said. The challenge is held through an app called

SPORTS Aggies take care of Aggie soccer business at home, off to strong 2-0:sweep Idaho State start By Sean Coghlan SPORTS STAFF WRITER

One weekend, two wins and more than 2,000 miles later, the Utah State soccer team im- proved to 5-2-1 on the campaign. The Aggies defeated Eastern Michigan 2-1 Friday and then headed to the Bay Area to defeat Oak- land 3-0 on Sunday. Both of the weekend matches were the first times the Aggies had played these opponents. On Friday the Aggies traveled to Ypsilanti, MI. to take on the Eastern Michigan Eagles. Freshman Ashley Cardozo would score a pair of goals to lead the Aggies to a 2-1 victory. Cardozo would score in the 65th minute with a long-distance shot, and then in the 82nd minute would curl in a free kick. The Eagles would score within the final seconds of the match to avoid a shutout. With the pair of goals on Friday, Cardozo has tied the Aggie record for goals scored by a freshman. In 2008, Shantel Flanary scored five goals by the end of the season. Cardozo has scored five before conference play begins Sunday saw the Aggies taking on the Golden Grizzlies of Oakland, who were 0-8-1 coming into the match-up. The Aggies would score once in the first half and twice in the second, sealing the weekend with a 3-0 win. First half action was seldom as both teams were getting the feel for one another. It wasn’t until Cardozo was fed a pass by Bailee Ham- mond in the 39th minute. Cardozo would find a cutting Kanyan Ward for an easy goal. Ag- gies up 1-0. The Aggies would score again midway through the second half. After a booming cor- ner kick from Cardozo and a header from senior Wesley Hamblin towards the box, Jordyn Chung-Hoon deflected the ball past the goalie to double the lead 2-0. Later in the half, after Chung-Hoon out-bat- tled an Oakland defender, forward Alecia Rob- inson took a cross from her teammate and drilled home the Aggies third goal of the after- noon. Goalkeeper Sara Cobb started and notched three saves but would be replaced by last year’s starting goalie Grace McGuire. The duo would go on to record a combined shutout. The weekend series were the final non-conference matches for Utah State, as they fin - ished with a record of 5-2-1. The Aggies will play one more weekend away, in California, as they take on San Jose St. and Fresno St. After that, Utah State will have their first home match in over a month as they host San Diego St.
