I used to avoid sharing my political views as the current admin requires immigrants to provide their social media accounts to the gov. But I am sick of this. It was never about the legal status or criminality of immigrants. 6 years of being away home, no conferences abroad since 2019, and now more?

Universities are not subject to the H1B cap, so they have many, many H1Bs.

If they're subject to the new $100,000 H1B fee, that would be catastrophic to many departments.

Thank you for sharing this! Noticed the intentionally misspelled words. What a time

Lastly, I can't help but wonder if it's really about the internationalization of American universities, or the "colorization" of American universities. Why does the author pick on students from global south, who are usually racialized as "non-white" and therefore being othered?

3/3 That said, as a former Ohioan, I highly recommend Chinese food in Ohio. It is amazing. 🙂

2/3 Chinese students are wealthier than domestic students without support of any data, focusing on Chinese students in Ohio (who still remembers the last false claim about immigrants in Ohio), being surprised with authentic Chinese food in Ohio--just irked me. The amount of othering is disgusting.

1/3 This is a lot I want to say to argue against this article but I am simply too exhausted to do the emotional labor... I would like to assume the author wrote this article in a good faith, but the first paragraph--cherrypicking on one student driving an expensive car, saying that

This article reinforces the (blatantly false) stereotype that international students (esp. Chinese students) come from wealth and are privileged, and therefore, they do not deserve opportunities as much as domestic students do. Disappointed to see this from nyt. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/01/o...

So proud to watch @rzhprfshr.bsky.social ROCK her first in-person ICA presentation! 🌠

Misinformation diffuses on social media , but does it impact citizens' factual beliefs and misinformaiton sharing. And if so, how? In my presentation @polcomm.bsky.social‬'s panel at #ica #polcomm, I will present a novel way to understand the effect of misinformation w an experiment. Don't miss it!

Hi #PolComm, I will present my dissertation which develops a trust-based theory of misinformation belief and sharing in social contexts using a dyadic interactive experiment on oTree at #ica25. The presentation will take place on Saturday at 1:30pm in Centennial F, Hyatt Regency. Come check it out!
