In its crusade against American universities, the Trump administration now appears intent on choking off incoming flows of international students—a group that has long driven scientific innovation in the United States and pumped tens of billions of dollars into the U.S. economy.
U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced on Wednesday that the Trump administration would “aggressively revoke” the visas of Chinese students, “including those with connections to the Chinese Communist Party or studying in critical fields.” Nearly one-quarter of all international students pursuing higher education in the United States come from China.
