Student Business
Saturday, January 01, 2000
I disagree with those who complain about Australian universities and TAFEs taking foreign students. If these foreign students are paying full fees, then we are exporting a service and employing Australians. We need such industries.
The problem of providing tertiary education for our own youth is a question of what we are willing to spend on our own. There need be no limit on full fee-paying foreign students, because it is strictly business. It pays for itself.
