University of Delaware students and alum protested in support of international students who had their visas revoked by the federal government. The protest, held on April 16, saw current and former students gathering to demand more action from the university and the government.
The school is one of many across the country facing visa cancellations for international students, including Temple University, the University of Pennsylvania, Penn State University, Rutgers University, and Rowan University. Students at the University of Delaware walked out of classes and gathered in front of Old College Hall to voice their anger over the lack of due process in the deportations.
University officials said they were not given a reason for the visa revocations by the government. They have created a website to help international students understand their rights and access legal counsel. Mohammad Abdul Muqtedar Khan, an international relations professor at the university, expressed concern that targeting foreign students legally in the country would ultimately harm America.
The university spokesperson emphasized the importance of supporting international students and complying with all applicable laws while providing necessary resources for them. The protest at the University of Delaware highlighted the growing concern over the treatment of international students and the impact it could have on the country’s reputation and prosperity.
