US Plans to Expand Scrutiny of International Students' Social Media, Halts Visa Interviews and Freezes Harvard Contracts to Redirect Research Funding to Technical Schools
The US authorities are planning to expand scrutiny of international students' social media and have suspended visa interviews, generating widespread concern. In addition, reports suggest that the federal government may suspend its contract with Harvard University and consider redirecting research funding to vocational schools, raising fears of a potential brain drain that could damage America's long-term interests.
The Trump administration previously issued a ban on Harvard accepting international students, impacting the diversity and innovation capabilities of American universities. If these policies continue to be enacted, it could further exacerbate the outflow of international talent, placing the US at a disadvantage in global competition.
