7. What? Exactly what do you mean? We should disallow any and all
foreign students into schools because it might offend 'Jewish or female' sensibilities? Two problems there. 1) Maybe some people are offended by the admittance of Jewish students. Should we decide who can and cannot attend a school with that criteria in mind? 2) Females don't automatically find themselves in a dangerous or perilous situation just because a foreign, and in particular, Saudi young person is attending their school. So why should they feel threatened? I don't know of any school that forces females to fraternize with anyone, do you? I have rarely heard of any foreign students going on a rampage and mass murdering and raping co-eds. The Ted Bundy home grown types, yes. Foreign students, if you have some info that no one else has, please share it.

The problem is the cost of education in this country. And the glaring difference that you can see in this instance of the Saudi government enabling their young people to go to college with full aid and the American government telling its young people to pound sand. And even better yet, the jobs these uneducated, untrained American people will be restrictively suited for are being moved outside this country or are being filled with cheap immigrant labor.
