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.”

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.
