I think it is a perfectly valid question as well. I am CS grad student and I notice the same thing. I am along the same lines of not being concerned about the having a lot of foreign students, but instead about having too few American students. The worth of a Bachelor's degree today is the same as a High School diploma in 1950. Too many people do not see college as an opportunity learn, and see it as more of an opportunity to escape life at home. As soon as their four years are done they take an often meaningless job when they are capable of more productive work. The fact that people do not graduate in four year regularly anymore means that people should not go straight into college from high school either, and instead should work some form of service job, e.g. military, foreign relation, etc.
