Journalist Jose Antonio Vargas — who recently “outed” himself as an undocumented immigrant to the U.S. — will give a free public lecture at Ithaca College on Monday, Dec. 5. His talk, “Immigration . . . Beyond Media Myths,” is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. in Emerson Suites, Phillips Hall. It is sponsored by the Park Center for Independent Media.

In a “New York Times Magazine” essay published in June, Vargas described how he was sent from the Philippines to live with his grandparents in the United States at age 12, did not learn of his undocumented status until age 16 and went on to become a successful multimedia journalist. His article, “My Life as an Undocumented Immigrant,” drew both praise and condemnation, with some calling for his deportation.
