Colleges and universities across Pennsylvania and the country continue to report international student visas being revoked.
“I only have a semester left and there’s only three weeks left for the semester. We have finals coming up. So, with everything going on, it’s kind of hard to process,” Ma said.
Ma is referring to the sudden phone call he received from his designated student officer in regard to his student visa.
“She called me and told me she had to be the bearer of the bad news, and said, ‘Hey, I don’t know if you saw the email from the provost, but you’re one of the students that we are looking at that had their service terminated.’”
Murphy believes this may be happening from an expunged DUI case involving Ma in 2023. “That [DUI] didn’t result in the finding of guilt. I understand the records were expunged,” Murphy said. “The case was dismissed and expunged after he went through the process.”
These universities should be offering shelter and refuge to every last possible student who could have been and still will be threatened by this administration. God knows they can fucking afford it. Our kids deserve to know their schools aren’t going to throw them under the bus at the first sign of trouble.
Carnegie could very much allow them to finish online.

I grew up in an all white town. We didn’t segregate, there just wasn’t any brown or black folk. A hierarchy still emerged.
At the top you had your “Americans”, you can read that as English, German, Norwegian (lots of Norwegians) descendants, protestant.
Next you had the Catholics, your Irish and spare whomever from the first category who happened to be Catholic.
Then you had the Polish, (yours truly!). While still Catholic, we were still gross pollaks. Everyones favorite punchline.
Then it was the Slavic people, mostly Czechoslovakian, they had a reputation for being scary mofos so no one fucked with them.
At the very bottom you had the Finlanders. They were always starting co-ops and acting in a very socialist way, so no one trusted them. Fuckin Finlanders…
Fucking socialists? You’re crazy. Fuck the nice people!!! Mercadumb
Lol just can’t have it! It’s so stupid. Co-ops are awesome!
Although a bunch of them did go to Russia right after the revolution there only to eventually get purged by Stalin. Caused a lot of rifts in the community, to this day there’s still some who are very anti anything socialist.
They then focus outward and attack literally any nation they want to as the imperial center crumbles
