We're going to see an exodus of foreign born students and it's going to hit college towns *hard*.
-
With a probable closing of Department of Education soon we're also going to see the elimination of Pell Grants probably. So basically colleges are about to be gutted.
Which is the Republicans long held goal. They need less college educate people, not more.

Foreign students often pay more tuition if I’m not mistaken
and university actively seek them out too, without they suffer financially. in the west state uni are suffering from under-enrollment so much they have to cut back classes and staff as it is, due to the lack of career development job search during covid. this will just add on to that.

They do, also it's a wider talent pool and more chance of recruiting the best and brightest.
its mostly because they pay alot more as a non-citizen and out of state, "the best student is usually secondary" its all about the money.

Sure, but it will seriously hurt universities by making them lose tuition and talent. By extension it'll hurt university towns by making them lose business and labor.
also makes thier reputation go down, if they start "racist policies" like that.

You're presuming universities exist to cultivate talent and procure tuition. But what if their primary purpose is to cultivate propaganda, gatekeep social clubs, grant bragging rights to fail kids, and provide sinecures to elite alumni and their friends.
By extension it’ll hurt university towns by making them lose business and labor.
New Haven, CT has one of the highest poverty rates in New England, despite being next door to Yale, home of an elite business school.
Few alumni seem to mind.
that maybe for places like harvard and yale, which has desires to return to a white student body, but not all universities have this desire.

Agreeing with an .ml person, what a day
But yeah , not going to their home countries uni maybe a question of their countries uni being 50 years behind (i attended uni in a 3rd world country as a chem eng and we were using equipment from the 60s and 70s)
probably less internship(if your lucky) and volunteer lab work as well.

That's only true for private schools.

Yeah they wanted to hurt the elite universities - but they missed their targets and will instead hurt all of the third tier state schools that actually have low enough barriers to cater to everyone.

Making US universities "Whites Only" again is a feature of this policy, not a bug.
I think they are much more enlightened these days. They are happy take brown & yellow if they have enough green.

Neoliberals were. But the backlash to even guys as hard-right as Vivek suggests tolerance for the any amount of diversity is plunging.

Yeah, that Vivek case was a highlight, wasn't it. Having that racist nutball come on his show and tell him she'd never vote for him because of colour was nuts.
