“ Foreign students already pay lot more than locals.”
*************************************************
I don’t know if that is true or not. But, if true, the more taxes would be raised from the institutions. And either way MORE AMERICAN STUDENTS would be going to those schools and fewer foreign students. And IMHO that’s a good thing,
That is probably true. In most cases I see, rich foreigners, particularly from China and India, will pay full ride, plus all costs, for their kids to be here.
Its big money for many of these universities, even public ones.
but let's think about what that means. That, and Federal money, allows these "elite" schools to fund themselves, certainly at the expensive of average American students. It also has turned our universities into centers of woke, global elitism, not American elitism. I used to think America benefited by having foreign graduates spread out in the world. Certainly the CIA and deep state thrive on that. But that influence, as the deep-state attacks on Trumps since, 2016, shows that influence flows both ways -particular back into the USA.
