Nora Razon, a student at San Francisco State University, is shown working at a Mexican restaurant in Palo Alto, Calif., Friday, July 7, 2006. Financial aid would help students like Nora Razon, who came to California illegally when she was 2 years old from Jalisco, Mexico, and made it to San Francisco State University in spite of growing up in a home so violent she spent stints in foster care.  She couldn't get financial aid, but because California law let her pay in-state tuition she could afford to go to school by working nights as a waitress and commuting four hours roundtrip by train.
