As I understand it, foreign students pretty much pay for a lot of US Schools. Anyone who has had to pay out of state tuition knows what's happening. So essentially, the more foreign students, the more spots for American students.

The "kids" in the original article are likely PhD students. They are not paying tuition. You and I are likely paying for their education with taxes. (This is likely a small part of the overall higher education picture.)
