It has always upset me to see foreign students on scholarship in public universities. It just means some hard working American student has to take out loans for their overpriced education instead of getting the scholarship.
So there's where you're wrong buddy, I married a girl from Eastern Europe. she was an exchange student back in the day came here in the United States to get her college degree because she loved it so much.
She worked her butt off to get a 4.0 every semester to get a lousy 1k scholarship. She changed her dream career from Econ to Accounting so she could get that money. You know why?
As an international student, she paid 9k per semester at a state uni for 12 credit hours.
As a citizen, I paid 2k for those same classes.
She graduated Suma cum Laude and we married, have two kids and she became a citizen shortly after. She's not the most conservative but she's not a leftist.
She's contributed more to US society than 30% of the jackoffs out there going to frat parties and the like. Is everyone like that? No. Is every student like her? No.
What hurts more is affirmative action.
P.s. only 5% of students are international on visa. Maybe 1M a year. US people are going to these schools en masse.
More important than foreign students is foreign money and foreign faculty
Letting foreign students to study and stay is very close to merit-based immigration.
Foreign students should be the bottom of the list when taking applications. Universities are far to happy taking CHY-na money..
Or better yet, allow as many foreigners as we can take and tax the living shit out of them.
