Right on. I mean this idiot from texas is trying to pass everything under the rug as "homeland/national security matter". Good for MIT to walk away from stupid restrictions that have nothing to do with homeland/national security matter. I mean the notion that all these students at MIT or any other high ranked research universities are toiling thier time and sometimes their money for 4-5 years so they can help Osama better understand the fluid dynamics is just stupid. And as for the people who are saying "why should foreign student take my spot on these universities", it's like there's a quota system or some kind of foreign student affirmative action program running at these places. Prof's who are doing researches are picking these foreign students b/c despite their bad/no english they feel that the foreign students have better chance of coming up with stuff that prof's can then publish and get tenure.
