banti321 Posted March 8, 2011 Report Posted March 8, 2011 WASHINGTON: Four influential US Senators have appealed to authorities, demanding a crackdown on "sham universities" helping foreign nationals "illegally" enter into America. "These sham universities are not real institutions of higher learning, but rather, operate solely for the purpose of manipulating immigration law to admit foreign nationals into the country," the four Senators said in a letter to Alejandro Mayorkas, Director of the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). Written by Senators Dianne Feinstein, Claire McCaskill, Charles Schumer and Jon Tester, the letter was released to the press yesterday. "'Sham universities' are gaming the system, and while they are at it, they're putting our nation's security at risk. This has got to stop," McCaskill said. "America is a nation of laws, and as we keep working to fully secure our nation's borders, we've got to lock any other back door that people are using to illegally enter our country.
