今日,密歇根大学安娜堡分校官方公众号再发声明--《校长声明:关于国土安全部留学生新政策》
密大态度:
☞ 强烈反对国土安全部7月6日宣布的进一步限制国际学生教育机会的临时政策。
☞ 鉴于全美许多地方对疫情控制不力,如果我们需要回到远程授课,我们的国际学生不应该受到惩罚。
☞ 我们继续反对对国际学生实行的任意限制。
☞ 废除或大幅度改变这一不必要的破坏性政策。
全文如下:
在密西根大学,我们加入高等教育界同仁的队伍,强烈反对国土安全部7月6日宣布的进一步限制国际学生教育机会的临时政策。
根据我们国际中心工作人员的初步审阅,该指南与密西根大学秋季课程安排不冲突。我们秋季将包括面对面和远程授课。该指南允许安娜堡校区的国际学生以混合模式上课。它还允许身处国外的学生在线上课。
鉴于全美许多地方对疫情控制不力,高等教育机构需要在授课方式上保持灵活性。如果我们需要回到远程授课,我们的国际学生不应该受到惩罚。
我们继续反对对国际学生实行的任意限制。国际学生一如既往并持续是我们社区重要的成员。尽管最初的审阅显示对学生的影响不那么直接,我们仍然同意美国大学协会(Association of American Universities,简称AAU, *注:密大是其成员之一) 的声明,称该政策“不理智,且对每年成千上万赴美的国际学生十分残酷。”
密西根大学将与我们AAU同仁以及其他商业和教育领域的同伴一起,进一步了解这项新指南的影响,并与国会领导和行政官员合作,废除或大幅度改变这一不必要的破坏性政策。

英文原文:
At the University of Michigan, we add our voice to the many in higher education to express our strong disagreement with the temporary policy announced July 6 by the Department of Homeland Security to further restrict the educational opportunities for international students.
Based on an initial review by our International Center staff, this guidance does not conflict with the University of Michigan’s plans for fall term classes consisting of a mixture of in-person and remote classes. The guidance allows this type of hybrid model for international students studying on the Ann Arbor campus. It also allows students outside the country to take U-M classes online.
Given the poorly controlled nature of the COVID-19 pandemic in many places across our nation, institutions of higher education need to maintain flexibility in how we choose to safely deliver our curricula. Our international students must not be penalized if our best judgments dictate that we need to return to fully remote instruction.
We continue to oppose arbitrary restrictions on international students who have been and continue to be valuable members of our community of scholars. Even with this initial review that shows a less direct impact on our students, we agree with the statement from the Association of American Universities – of which U-M is a member – that calls this policy “immensely misguided and deeply cruel to the tens of thousands of international students who come to the United States every year.”
The University of Michigan is joining with our AAU colleagues and many others in business and education to further understand the impact of this new guidance and work with congressional leaders and administration officials to rescind or substantially alter this unnecessary and disruptive policy.
