You have not been paying attention - I expect better of you and others on this board. Deal in facts only, not your emotions. If you think you are correct, you are not paying attention. Previous Message
Nope. I paid attention. Individuals who have broken the law are subject to "getting swept off the streets".

You are a liar. Previous Message
Oh, I'm current, and FAR more aware than you on these matters.
What is "Louisiania"? What continent is that nation located in?
Again, what "Gestapo"? What "fascism"?

Snatching people off the streets and sending them to Louisiana and El Salvador and soon South Sudan and Libya, soon. Be current or go back to sleep. Previous Message
What "Gestapo like groups"? What fascism?
THOSE are lies! Previous Message
You call me a liar? I find that it lacks merit or factual basis. I am familiar with groups in India that handle all the paperwork for Indian students to study abroad. They guide students to determining where they want to study abroad, do all the educational and visa paperwork, set them up for a consulate or embassy meeting depending where they are in India, and onboard them. Most of these students' first choice are US schools. Now, through my multiple contacts, many are backing out because of our current administration's policies towards international students. These students would rather lose their downpayments and all monies already paid than come here to risk their freedom. These people go into big debt to come here $ 60k-$100k minimum, that their family can sign up for their opportunity to come here and study. Also, these students and their families are aware of students already here who have been harassed, taken away by ICE or other Gestapo groups, as this news is quite common in Indian media. These people have told me that less than 45% of their hundreds of potential students are coming to US schools as fear of fascism and violence, and out-of-control administration is blatantly obvious, and other study abroad companies have the same statistics. Also, these groups have connections in China who have said the same. So instead of calling me a liar, why don't you listen and learn about what is going on from the student and their family perspective? Previous Message
I'm calling you a flat out liar. You don't know a single 18 year old Chinese or Indian kid that isn't coming to Long Beach State because of President Trump's policies and they don't feel safe at LBSU because of it.
You Sir, are a LIAR!! Previous Message
I already know many Indian, Chinese, and other international students who were accepted, have declined, and are not coming to our university due to poor policy from the federal level and concerns for their well-being and safety. Hundreds have declined. Previous Message
Unfortunately this will affect all colleges and universities. The recruiting of foreign students had benefited LBSU as they pay higher tuition and fees to get in.
Yesterday Kristi Noem indicated that the restrictions at Harvard could extend nationally to all collegiate institutions. It this happens it would definitely affect our ability to recruit athletes from foreign countries athletes.
