The Campus Reform website quotes a range of university talking heads bemoaning President Trump's freeze on visas. Claims made include Michigan State alleging that "the proclamation would hinder the university’s ability to recruit international students." Others claimed they'd not be able to recruit faculty from overseas.
What's really going on here is foreign students are a gigantic cash cow that universities have learned to lean on. They provide funding for all the "diversity" administrators and victim group studies programs schools waste money on. And foreign scholars can often be hired more cheaply than Americans with the same training. Hat tip to Instapundit for the link.
