If you want to get a sense of how international students are literally pawns to ensure that schools reopen in the fall, check this thread by @Ornithophobix https://twitter.com/Ornithophobix/status/1280244063019679750
On the question of graduate labor: https://twitter.com/AnushkaNes/status/1280235222441713664
If international students have to leave US now, many won't come back. A lot of people might actually leave academia. See this thread by @SouthAsianBuoy : https://twitter.com/SouthAsianBuoy/status/1280230431560880128
Even without this ruling, international students in the US are extremely disadvantaged. https://twitter.com/histori_an_ca/status/1280343846082273280
Yet another important reminder by @Ornithophobix that I can't stress enough. FYI: we are still living through a global pandemic. https://twitter.com/Ornithophobix/status/1280296142165676037
On why the blanket approach is so harmful: https://twitter.com/dadadocot/status/1280271199092662272
The stress, the anxiety and oh yes academics, please do your reading about immigration: https://twitter.com/kritikaldesi/status/1280249384417079296
Also logistics, people. You can't take a flight overnight and just leave. See this thread by @ankitbhardy https://twitter.com/ankitbhardy/status/1280272697348501505
On what you can do now: https://twitter.com/ChrisMarsicano/status/1280334719423561730
