birdwatcherBreaking news and must-read stories -- A week from today, 17-year-old Arthur Mkoyan will graduate from Bullard High School in Fresno, Calif., with a 4.0 average. He's a valedictorian.
But as the Fresno Bee explains, he might not make it to college. He and his mother are being deported to Armenia, a country he left when he was 2. His family has sought asylum for 16 years and been denied. His father is sitting in a detention center in Arizona.
