NEWS’ VIEW: Just the beginning

We at the News join our community in condemning this ban on citizens of seven predominantly Muslim countries and all refugees, and we stand in solidarity with those it has affected. Trump’s directive is an affront to American values and to principles we as Yalies hold dear.
