Laura Corin Posted January 30, 2017 Author Share Posted January 30, 2017 Well, he still might not be wrong, at least in the general sense. Student fees here in Canada are higher for international students for similar reasons, but universities also particularly like those students for reasons that are entirely about money. They are considered a very financially desirable population to appeal to. Oh, absolutely. But saying 'just cash cows' is extreme - we care for the overseas students and give them just the same education. And often find ourselves putting a lot more effort into their personal issues, because they are far from home. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katy Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Yes, it does have a negative connotation. But we're talking about a young man. Chances are he simply didn't think through that he was actually complaining. If he was neutral or positive he wouldn't have repeated strange so much. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
