A Hong Kong college has promised “unconditional offers” for international students at Harvard after the Trump administration revoked the Ivy League’s ability to enroll them.
Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) said it would help “ensure a smooth transition” for students who may be unable to enroll for the next school year.
The White House’s attempt to prevent Harvard enrolling international students next year is the latest blow in its fight with America’s oldest—and richest—university, which refused to comply with government’s demands to change how it hires and teaches. The U.S. government is cracking down on elite colleges it alleges are overrun by left-wing extremists and antisemitic movements.
If China decided to unilaterally implement democratic reforms, they’ll slingshot past the United States on the human rights front.
They wouldn’t have to be quick about it either, given how quickly Trump is trying to wipe out democracy.
It would be a surreal thing, but suddenly something that’s actually plausible.
Zero possibility.
The just need to open their system a little bit to let STEM people migrate in and have some academic freedom and economic success, the rest are just too far stretch. the ruling class and middle class has had very little interests to change the political order, now even less so.
Near zero.
Status quo is fine enough, but they would fucking crush it if they made the decision.
china does need innotative scientists to help develop thier own research and tech, since mos tof its obtained through espionage and just reverse engineering to a weaker version of the original tech.
