'I only have a semester left': Carnegie Mellon student among those whose visas were terminated

Source: Tribune Live

“I was looking at it, and I’m like, ‘Shoot, is this for me?’ ” Ma said Wednesday.
Ma, who came to the United States from China in 2016, isn’t sure what will happen to him next.
“I was really just worried about my school because I’m so close from finishing up,” he said. “I only have a semester left, and there’s only three weeks left for this semester. We have finals coming up.”

Ma, 24, initially came to the United States for high school. In 2020, he was accepted at Carnegie Mellon to study electrical computer engineering with a concentration in signals and systems.

He is scheduled to graduate in December but now fears that will not likely happen.

He has no idea why he is being sent back to China before he graduates. He has finished high school and only has one semester left in college in the US.
He thinks it might be for a DUI he got that was dismissed and his record expunged. How many college students get drunk? It isn't like he traveled to another state to kill students there by stabbing them to death. These days you can be as innocent as a nun and still be deported.

This man has much to contribute to our country. I say deport Peat Bog Kegsbreath instead given his many incidents of drunken behavior and sexual assault-not to mention his dangerous gang tattoos 😡 And Kegsbreath is a demonstrated risk to national security
