Does anyone know what colleges are planning for if international students evaporate?

Wow. I never thought about your last sentence.

Because that’s not how that works. Pregnancy doesn’t prevent deportation. And as we’ve seen recently, they are fine deporting non-citizens without their kids. Or with their American citizen kids.

In my program 100%.

You support family separation I guess?

I do not. But that doesn’t mean OP’s “loophole” exists”. I’m just pointing out that coming here as student with a plan of getting an American citizen girl pregnant and staying doesn’t work, and could backfire if you are deported and have an American citizen kid who stays with mom. Having a child with a citizen— even being married to a citizen— doesn’t stop deportation. PP is full of it.

It also has impact now, this summer, in real time.

DP. All I know is, I managed a lab of Chinese grad students and ALL the women managed to get pregnant during their PhDs and they made sure it was with an American, even if they barely knew each other. One girl asked me specifically if she needed to marry the baby daddy to get a green card, along with how her parents could get theirs, and of course I had no idea. I never saw an American having a baby until they safely had their PhD, and I never saw two Chinese students hooking up.

World War I. The Great Depression. World War II. COVID-19.

We managed to survive these catastrophic calamities, but surviving the absence of Chinese Communist spies in our colleges might be more than we can handle.
