A $65 million Yes for St. Cloud schools; U of M student deportation hearing

Several Minnesota school districts yesterday asked voters to approve more funding through ballot questions. The biggest, the St. Cloud School district, got voter approval to raise $65 million for upgrades to security at Apollo High School, and a new athletic facility.

The University of Minnesota grad student currently detained pending deportation proceedings will be back in court on Friday.
