Colleges and universities experiencing significant drop in international student enrollment. “Universities all over the country are experiencing…drops. Arizona State University reported a fall semester decline for the first time since 2020. Declines have been announced at universities in Texas, Missouri and Illinois. The state of Massachusetts is expecting about 10,000 fewer new international students this year.
‘One would describe the situation with international students to be very much in flux with tremendous levels of uncertainty,’ says Fanta Aw, who leads the Association of International Educators, or NAFSA.” #academia #AcademicChatter #universities #college #HigherEd #Students #StudentVisas #TrumpAdministration
MAGA aren't happy, but then they're never happy so why do some people obsess over placating them over everyone else? Is it cowardice, is it because they are MAGA but too chicken to admit it? Fuck them all anyway...

State Department’s New Hobby: Collecting 6,000 Vacant Student Visas

Over 6,000 Student Visas Revoked by US in 2025 Amid Stricter Immigration Policies: The United States government has revoked more than 6,000 student visas since January 2025, citing security and criminal concerns as the reasons. According to officials from the US State Department, about 4,000 of the cancellations were linked to cases of assault, burglary, driving under the influence, and support for terrorism. In addition, student visa and […] http://dlvr.it/TMYsWD #News #StudentVisas
📢 The US State Department has quietly rolled out a controversial new requirement for international students. 📱 Applicants for F, J, and M visas are now being told to make their social media profiles publicly viewable during the visa process. 🤬
🔍 The goal appears to be enhanced vetting, but it raises serious concerns:
🔓 Loss of privacy for global students
🌍 Disproportionate surveillance based on nationality
📉 Chilling effects on speech and expression
💬 International education depends on trust and openness. This policy could send the opposite message.
Is this smart security or a step too far?

Yet another example of ‘it’s the funding model, kids’.
Wherever there are uncapped government #subsidies to private businesses the opportunities for profit are huge. Industries shape themselves around maximising throughput / turnover & profit.
Where universities are not funded adequately to perform their functions of offering education & research, the role of highly paid executives is to implement systems that bring in maximum income - often by rorting uncapped programs & screwing the people those programs are meant to serve - in order to create funding streams to keep basic services afloat. Staff are screwed. Students are screwed. Vice Chancellors & aspiring leaders are paid astronomical sums to abandon their ethics.
Add to this a visa system that invites those who can pay to take endless courses as a path to permanent residence & we have a perfect storm.
This is a failure of governance.

…Citing news media reports, #Harvard’s amended complaint said that the #Trump admin had convened a group of senior officials to brainstorm additional ways to punish Harvard, even after Judge Burroughs issued an order on May 23 banning #DHS’s initial plan.

…The latest filing, an amended complaint, followed a string of court actions by the #university against the #Trump admin, part of a battle that began in April, when Harvard refused to comply with a list of federal demands.
The government asked, among other things, for Harvard to bar students *hostile* to *American values* & to allow an audit of #faculty & #students to measure “viewpoint diversity” at the school.
