MIT warns foreign students of possible visits from ICE

The visits are carried out by the department's Immigration and Customs Enforcement unit and are meant to verify that students are engaged in relevant “work-based learning experiences” and that employers have the resources necessary to supervise them, according to the department's website.The Trump administration has placed foreign researchers under sharper scrutiny as it tries to curb intellectual property theft by China and other governments.

In 2018, Chinese national Weiqiang Zhang was sentenced to 10 years in prison for conspiring to steal proprietary rice seeds developed in the U.S. and giving them to visitors from China. He previously received a doctorate at Louisiana State University. Last June, MIT President L. Rafael Reif warned that the fight against espionage threatened to create a “toxic atmosphere of unfounded suspicion and fear." He said some Chinese students and researchers on campus reported feeling “unfairly scrutinized, stigmatized and on edge" because of their Chinese ethnicity.

All of you people talking s*it about ICE...YOU people are the problem. YOU people are the true enemy of the United States. YOU people are the traitors of this country. YOU people are the ones who should be locked up and forgotten about.

Hey nice of you to obstruct justice...👍🏻.....🖕🏼let's warn them if they may be breaking the law. Freaking amazing

And the problem is?

Why does ICE care about international college students working? That is waste of resources when there are plenty of MS-13 to be rounded up. Anything for an arrest statistic?

Oh no! Enforcement of existing laws. How outlandish.

good, what is wrong with that?

ICE = American KGB

They probably should

Defund ICE into the grave in 2020

I loathe this administration

Thank you Ice.
