There are 100,000 Saudis who are students in the US and 350,000 students from Communist China. Does anybody ever ask exactly what do these students contribute to our educational system (besides money)?
It would seem that almost all of them would have passed a litmus test with their tyrannical governments. We are probably getting anti-democracy students.
Our government should limit foreign students to those coming from pro-democracy countries, with only a few exceptions for real genius-type students.
If all of these students were at the top 100 universities and the universities had 40,000 students each, that would give you about 10% of the students as coming from China and Saudi Arabia. Is anybody evaluating whether these students are making a positive contribution?
IMO they are probably among those who are attacking free speech and academic freedom on campus.
