I believe they've taken a different tactic here - attacking Harvard's ability to enroll international students, not the students' status directly.

- ceejayoz 1y agoThe article states "existing foreign students must transfer or lose their legal status"; this injunction would appear to pause that.
- ty6853 1y agoThe semester is already over, many of them went home. They'll simply be refused when they try to come back.
- firesteelrain 1y agoIt’s hard to do an injunction if there is currently no harm.
- Animats 1y agoThat's a real issue. If you're on a student visa, and were planning on coming back in the fall, leaving the US for the summer may be a bad move. Entry to the US can be denied arbitrarily. Deporting someone is harder.
- benlivengood 1y ago> Deporting someone is harder. It used to be harder and mostly seems to be a matter of ICE finding the right door to break down now.
- NewJazz 1y agoOr the wrong one.
- xethos 1y agoThey've got a deportation order, so somebody is being put on a plane to El Salvador. Whether the name of the person being deported matches the name on the deportation order is another question, but not one ICE seems bothered by anymore
- netsharc 1y agoUndergrad Buttle better watch out...
- fullstop 1y agoYou mean Tuttle, right? ;-)
- AlecSchueler 1y agoDeporting someone is just a matter of grabbing them off the street and shipping them out to El Salvador before the courts hear anything about it.
- chairmansteve 1y agoNot only refused, they may be locked up for a couple of weeks, as has happened to various tourists.
- ty6853 1y agoSure, I was locked up by DHS/immigration, and I am a US citizen. CBP/ICE/HSI doesn't really need much of anything to lock you up, when they did it to me they told me I wasn't even under arrest.
- mandeepj 1y ago> Sure, I was locked up by DHS/immigration, and I am a US citizen. Can you expand - what happened?
- Terr_ 1y agoIANAL but there are different categories like "detained" [reasonable suspicion, for questioning] and "arrested" [probable cause], and that's why the common advice is to just ask "am I free to go", which doesn't get bogged-down on finer-grained distinctions about why you might no be.
- ty6853 1y agoYes chained ("detained") in a jail cell, but not arrested, so no right to lawyer.
- gtirloni 1y agoICE begs to differ.
