What are your thoughts on this article? I'm an international student myself currently on OPT STEM.
I feel OPT and then OPT STEM are justifiable to the 2x/3x fee we pay to the universities, at least for the ROI+some profit. And there's no denying it that more and more universities are benefiting from this by introducing shorter academic programs, and churning out graduates at an increasing rate. Here's the best part: most of these "professional" academic programs do not offer any sort of funding for students, irrespective of how qualified you are.
We are on our own!

Suspend OPT program so American college grads can find jobs

Sure, everyone's allowed to have an opinion, but at least run a basic fact-check before publishing!
I wonder why this guy canβt find a job after graduation..
Secondly, the only people that benefit from the high fees are the rent-seeking bureaucrats, tenured professors and real estate developers associated with universities. They are pretty much just leeches on society with their outrageous fees.
Some massive amount of universities in the US are going to go bust in the next 2-3 years and it will be a huge boon for the United States as lower cost and more effective forms of instruction replace them.
