"But we found out at about the same time that the American University of Afghanistan was not considered a priority by the US government, and we didn't fit the qualifications, evidently, of being at risk.
I understand totally that American citizens, green card holders, and those who helped the US military should be prioritized. However, our university people are very much at risk, yet we failed to be in that category according to the US government. We have had to depend on private assistance and on the Qatar government over the past two weeks to get our students out. Now I don't know what we do next.
BERGEN: Why were your students not considered to be at-risk?
SCHWEITZER: That's the question I've been asking now because the US government has been our major funder over the last 15 years, along with private donations. We have instilled in these students all the basic tenets of an American education: critical thinking, transparency, freedom of speech, tolerance. Our students love America because they knew that the United States was giving them this opportunity to get a world-class education."

Not Americans. They can stay right where they are or go back to where they came from.
I’ve found that every raghead claims to be an f’n student
I think I read that the school is 40% women and they are certainly at risk.
Did the president of the institution, from a remote safe location abroad, actually say the “students will be able to finish their degrees remotely”???
You have to be joking, right??!
The iPhone 13 should work
So, stinking leftist academics have suddenly figured out they are not a priority in a communist state! It couldn’t have to a more deserving group of people.

Hey. No worries. The Taliban promised they’d be NICE this time
They PROMISED JOE !!
Its why I believe the “25 California High School students and their chaperones” stuck in Afghanistan that the media talks about, are actually teen-brides being sold for chain-migration purposes to the USA.
As Lily Tomlin said, no matter how cynical I get, I still can’t keep up.
Nothing to worry about...
They are all toast, Jim...
Look for those 10-year old raghead kids learning to decapitate Christions and Americans on Taliban TV...
The United States Government contributed $100 million to this university. Part of that was to provide for a 2 year degree in Women’s Studies. (not a joke)
I bet those students enrolled in the Women’s Studies program are being hunted down and killed.
