This has been long overdue, and if I had my preference, we would limit or end any extremist Muslims from coming to this country. Currently, we have terrorists from our supposed Middle East allies and that needs to end now. With today’s technology, we need to run background checks on any foreigners wanting to attend our universities, but that is not the case.
Our Universites love foreign students whether they are anti-American or not, and that is insane. Who would teach their enemies to come back to attack them? This is crazy. In addition, it is time to clean out all the anti-American activist professors promoting our destruction. I have no problem if a professor doesn’t like our country, but as soon as they start promoting something, anything to replace our Republic, they need to go. Free speech is one thing; activism is another. All IMO.

“Since 1978, foreign students have been admitted into the U.S. for an unspecified period, enabling thousands to become “forever students” by perpetually enrolling in courses to avoid departure. The final rule ends this exploitation through several major reforms:
Fixed Admission Caps: Nonimmigrant students (F visas) and exchange visitors (J visas) will be admitted for the length of their specific program, not to exceed a maximum period of four years.
Mandatory Federal Extensions: Visa holders requiring additional time to complete an academic program must formally apply for an Extension of Stay (EOS) directly through U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). This transitions oversight from university staff back to federal authorities and subjects applicants to biometric vetting, background checks, and fraud screenings.
Reduced Departure Grace Period: The time allowed for F-1 students to prepare for departure, transfer schools, or change status following graduation is reduced from 60 days to 30 days.
Program Change Restrictions: The rule introduces strict limitations on academic changes.
This is going to have a serious, positive effect. It will definitely cut down on the number of people in the country illegally.”
