Duke is the latest university in North Carolina to have international students lose their ability to legally study or work in the U.S. amid a State Department crackdown on university students allegedly involved in pro-Palestine protests.
Two international students and one Duke alumnus had their F-1 student visas terminated in the first week of April, according to a Duke International Student Center email that was sent to Duke international students.
The government said that Immigration & Customs Enforcement (ICE) was notified of the revocations. The emails did not cite reasons for the revocations, stating only that "additional information became available after your visa was issued."
