Student visas revoked at multiple Michigan universities


Listen Later

The Trump administation has revoked visas of hundreds of international students across the nation.  

An unspecified number of students at Michigan State University and Central Michigan University have had their visas revoked. 

Two students at Grand Valley State University, four at Wayne State, one at Eastern Michigan University, and twelve enrolled students and ten graduates of the University of Michigan have also been affected. 

The reasons are not clear. The Trump administration says it’s focused on students who are – in the words of Secretary Marco Rubio — “Hamas supporters." 

Today we’re going to talk about the crackdown on campus speech, and other ways the Trump administration has silenced voices of dissent opposing the war in Gaza.

GUEST:

  • Huwaida Arraf is an attorney who has done legal work representing some of the students who protested Israel’s war in Gaza on the U-M campus.
