Beijing alone sends over 50 thousand students to the U.S each year. That is equivalent 7 percent of the entire Seattle population. The University of Washington has close to four thousand students from China. --SNIP-- Believe me, this will pay huge dividends for American and Chinese citizens,” said John Kerry, the U.S. Secret of State at Beijing’s press conference, as he gave out the first 11 travelers’ visa.

I would say something like 85% of UC Irvine is Asian, most of them ethnic Chinese.

They work. They study and they will give back more than they get from the US.

Contrast these students with the mass of baby mamas who will remain on welfare once they qualify. Stats reveal 43% of immigrants remain on welfare 20 years later. Guess which group.

Galt arrives just in time for Christmas.

That will change when ethnic quotas are rammed through the state legislature.

That equals about 500 Chinese students per university, college of other accredited degree issuing institution.

China pays the tuition for these students, which amounts to a tidy sum.

Paying the full tuition rate, they are making more seats available for American students (I thought this was a conservative forum).

“They work. They study and they will give back more than they get from the US.”
This has been my experience with my Chinese-born friends, now al proud American citizens. Doesn’t mean some shouldn’t be closely watched though.

Black faces: I counted them like you asked.

Number of black faces: None. Why is that? Don't they have black people in California? Sarcasm.

Why do you think they all pay full tuition?

Most Chinese grad students have tuition remission.

They often serve as near slaves for a Professor, usually Chinese him/or/herself.

Its notable that according to the article they seem to be following the rules, paying the fees and work very hard to learn English.
