i dont get what is so bad about this. a bunch of people tried to get into the US through student visa fraud by joining a fake college, they get busted, they get sent back to their country. am i missing something here?
They were given student visas and assumed they were going to a real school. They were only here illegally because their student visas werent valid because it wasnt a real school.
according to the wikipedia article there were no instructors, no classes, there wasnt even a campus (streetview of the school is an office building on a highway lol). so it seems like most of them enrolled in this phony college just for the visa, they had no intention of actually studying there. whole thing seems like an obvious racket to me (and it was), although I guess maybe there were a few very gullible people that somehow did not notice what this whole operation was about.
This is pretty bad justification. After the fact saying they should have known better instead of just admitting that this isnt a thing the government should be doing?
Not to mention that the "university" was also accredited ---
