What fresh hell is this?

Why are American taxpayers funding this?

Columbia has one of the largest international student and scholar populations in the US.

Columbia University has 35,978 students enrolled

...:

Columbia University has more than 23,000 international students and scholars from 162 countries

And the parents of international students pay whatever Columbia asks which ups what Columbia wants and expects from American students. In addition, Columbia is top heavy as far as “administration” costs with nearly one non-teaching staff employee for ebvery two undergrads. They are not alone in that regard.

No idea who the author is, but she’s been living under a rock for the past 25 years.

Was one Baraq H. 0bama among them too? That’s why his college records were sealed.

Probably the same percentage of professors. I really hated taking Calculus under someone I couldn’t understand.

That number is significantly higher than I would have guessed.
No wonder there is so much crazy anti-American crap going on there!

BAD policy and a terrible mistake coming back to haunt them daily - In America, there are no longer proper education opportunities being provided to students; only indoctrination and hate are being offered as subject matter.

The US educational system no longer produces NEARLY enough students to fill our elite colleges

You don't know that. It is discrimination against white males that is the problem.

He was criticizing American education, not support for H-1B visas.

They charge foreign students more than students from America.

I don’t have a clue what you are up to. I don’t think any serious person on this site is in favor of the visas. The person you mentioned originally was criticizing the public education in this country for not turning out capable students, which is true — they are not. And his point being that the greedy colleges populate their student body with foreigners for the money. They seemed to be hostile to Americans.

When I was in college, there were many students from the Middle East. I assume they went home after graduation.

Private schools, prep academys etc. have always supplied the Ivy league with students. The failing inner city schools have nothing to do with that.
