University of Oregon international student enrollment drops again - Dylan Darling, Register-Guard

International student ­enrollment at the University of ­Oregon dropped for the second year in a row — representing a more than $6 million decrease in annual revenue. The latest numbers are for the student count as of November, and include undergraduate, graduate and law school students. World economics and American national politics probably combined to cause the drop in students from foreign countries, said Chakris Kussalanant, Office of International ­Affairs ­spokesman at ­university. “There’s no ­denying that the current govern­ment administration has made the United States not appear a very ­welcoming place for a lot of ­foreigners,” he said. http://registerguard.com/rg/news/local/36320409-75/university-of-oregon-international-student-enrollment-drops-again.html.csp
