My granddaughter was livid because they wouldn’t speak English in the lab in a NYS college.

“Universities” will get up in their trees like a bunch of howler monkeys over THIS!

They LOVE all the $$$$ they get for admitting foreign students.

"Cotton Is Right About Restricting Chinese Student Visas"

Definitely the right thing to do.

Quite a few US University Engineering and Science programs will go under though.....

Yeah, life sucks. Especially if you are an enemy of the USA. Educating the Chinese to beat us is STUPID to the max.

What the colleges are not teaching them they are stealing.

It’s really a shame that we don’t have more than a handful of Senators that side with the citizens of the US.

Not because our kids can't get in, because the CCP pays more, it's about $ for the schools. As I have been told, we are suffering from "Democraphic Inversion" Yours (and mine , trust me I know) aren't good enough to get in. Maybe they will at least get a better chance to get in, if we cut the CCP off.....

Why continue any policy that serves the CCP’s desired ends?

Send the sons and daughters of China's thugs back to mommy and daddy. Stop student exchange programs... close the doors of our Universities to them... We need to grow up.

The United States didn't accept the children of Hitler's 'elites' during World War II - accept them to steal our technology and spy on us.. and we shouldn't accept the children of China's 'elites' either.

Is Harvard in bed with the Chinese?

My son applied to several PHD programs for Biological Engineering. Almost all the labs at places like Harvard are Chinese students. Some labs are 100% Chinese. He did a little research on why. Apparently, China tests its students and promotes the education of it smartest pupils out of 1.5 Billion people(5X the US). These elite students go to elite schools within China. The government pays for them to study abroad in the US or UK or elsewhere.

These Chinese undergraduate students typically pay universities like Harvard FULL tuition room and board. They are not looking for monetary assistance like so many US students or poorer students from 3rd world countries.

IF they are from a wealthy Chinese family they may even sponsor the research at these Universities. Kind of like Carnagie built various buildings at many universities back in the day.

...and low cost employees / indentured servants for the final customer, which are H1B consuming multinational corporations.

….and they are complete idiots for doing so. All they are doing is propping up overpriced real estate values in Boston, and supporting a vastly overrated educational brand.

The physical plant of today's universities is obsolete.

Then tell them for every foreign student they accept, they get a fine or reduced federal monies for other things. They can’t have it both ways.

CCP China has WAY too much influence over univerisities,media, etc. in this country. Pray people are beginning to wake up.

I believe all the leftist indoctrination, push for more moral degeneracy, repression of conservatives, shut down of free speech etc. at campuses in last 10 years has been pushed by CCP influence over Universities with their traitorous money. (Just like it was Russian influence in the 60s/70s hippie era, I believe it is CCP influence here in the last 10 years.

Exactly right: it’s all to do with money. Many moons ago when I was in college, there were constant complaints about the behavior of Saudi and Iranian students at the nearby grad achool. Cheating, plagiarism, laziness, predatory behavior toward females, etc. But they were among the very few students paying full freight, and some of them even made monetary gifts to the schools. Of course they weren’t spies (as far as we knew) but, yeah, it was all about the schools’ greed.

In the late 1970’s we cut off all the Iranian students. There were boat loads of them.

TRhe same should happen to China

US universities and colleges are in the pocket of the Chinese and that ensures Chinese admissions.
