Those Foreign Students
Nashville , Tennessee - THE TENNESSEAN wrote an article about foreign students , BUTT , left out some interesting information.
Yes , it is true , foreign student tuition costs is usually 3 times higher , butt , the American taxpayer covers it just the same , not the "foreign" student.
Did you know: along with free college paid tuition , foreign students also automatically qualify for food stamps , social security checks and free medical services.
Did you also know , your Federal Government has a program in place , that encourages universities to hire foreign professors (instead of American professors) into tenure track positions? In return , your government (using your tax dollar$) pays the first 3 years of their employment package plus benefits plus research money and relocating expenses.
Having foreign professors gives foreign students a more "at home" feeling in school.
