The fact that international students are willing to pay 3-4x what in-state students pay, joined with the reality that the cost of college has tracked at 500% of average consumer price inflation?
It definitely isn't a zero sum gain for everyone. A lot of money comes into our economy in general from international students. And in a sane environment, we would try to keep them here when they graduate.
But pretending it isn't an important component of college price inflation in a country ruled by supply and demand, and the power of the almighty dollar, doesn't make sense either.
