The US government announced that it would revoke Chinese student visas.
The Trump administration’s decision to revoke Chinese students’ visas, which are in the hundreds of thousands, is the most recent development in its campaign against US universities and international students.
The US Secretary of State has also announced that new student visa applicants’ interviews will be suspended, and that their social media posts will be more rigorously screened.
The decline in revenues for American schools and universities is anticipated to be significant because China is the second-largest source of foreign students in the US after India.
Harvard University has already experienced funding cuts as a result of US President Donald Trump.
How are the US and other countries likely to be affected by academia and research?
