It’s a great way to remove h1b fraud and abuse but you do burn down a bit of your garage in the process of getting rid of the rat.
- kelnos 1y ago"At the expense of universities" may not be the plan for this one, but to the current administration, it's certainly a bonus.
- stackskipton 1y agoIs it really at expense of universities? From what I understand, most are getting Master Degrees but very few are doing research. I've seen plenty of H-1B coworkers with Master Degrees but very few did research, it was just extra computer science courses.
- cuttothechase 1y agoMajority of CS/EE/MBA type grad programs across all universities are heavily enrolled by foreign students. Most of them end up paying out of state fee. This is a significant chunk of revenue for many colleges to keep their budget in shape. Even in conservative states, lots of colleges are reliant on this stream of income. A loss of this stream is going to put a strain on them to balance their budget, or seek more help from govt.
