An update on the lawsuit filed by AAU, @ACEducation, @APLU_News, and university co-plaintiffs to halt the proposed cuts to the F&A rates for Department of Energy research grants to colleges and universities: https://t.co/yQyisVk5KX https://t.co/nBydZaXkQK

So disturbing on so many levels.

BREAKING: More international graduate students at Johns Hopkins University have lost their student visas. The total is now "several dozen," up from around 12. We are the first outlet to report on this, here is what you need to know: https://t.co/ugaYTDP71C

Important story from @laurameckler and @SusanSvrluga of the Washpost. The first paragraph raises this vital question: Are we denying due process and punishing people for their views rather than their actions? https://t.co/u1pXr9lMvO

Vital message here from @AAUniversities. "The withdrawal of research funding for reasons unrelated to research sets a dangerous and counterproductive precedent." https://t.co/D7p5RDN2kz.

This incident at Tufts raises profound and disturbing questions. What messages are we sending about due process and freedom of expression for hundreds of thousands of international students on our campuses? Wherever they were born, remember, these are our students.

The Tufts graduate student detained by federal authorities in Somerville has been sent to a Louisiana detention facility, despite a federal judge’s order telling US Immigration and Customs Enforcement not to remove her from Massachusetts without notice. https://t.co/exfMgu3zx7

In the circle of ultra-competitive college admissions, this is not a small deal.
