ALIPAC’s William Gheen is in apparent seclusion tonight after his humiliation before the North Carolina Community College Board, which voted in September to allow undocumented immigrants to attend their 58 colleges. In a packed hearing room of the State Archives building, supporters of this proposal outnumbered opponents 9 to 1. 51 of the 57 signed up to speak were in favor of the proposition.
