Foreign Students Worry They Could Lose Aid Under New Indiana Law

August 15, 2011, 11:38 am

Indiana colleges have been flooded with queries from international students worried they could lose financial aid under a new state law that says public assistance for postsecondary education is available only to U.S. residents or “qualified aliens.” Overseas students on visas are not included in the definition of qualified alien, but college officials and the legislation’s sponsor say the measure, which took effect on July 1, was meant to single out illegal immigrants and will not affect foreign students in the country legally. Still, the law’s unclear language has alarmed international students who are concerned they could lose tuition waivers, graduate stipends, and fellowships.

4. Air conditioning (it’s been brutal)
5. Time with family (#1 on the list, but made possible by 1-4 listed above)

1. My down the hall colleague: we combined our research students into a team and I had the best research summer ever

3. iPhone
4. Liaden Universe novels

1. iPhone 4 – for doing everything fast, my iPhone can let me check email, look up bus schedules, find a book at the library – can’t live without
2. iPad (1) – Love it for really digging into those long emails, reading magazines (color is transcending), downloading pics from camera and uploading pics to blog or Facebook.
3. Kindle – just got this and love it for reading books. Can’t wait until it works with my library’s Overdrive service.
4. Kauai Coffee – OMG! If you haven’t tried it you must. My (wonderful) hubby gets me a monthly subscription every year for my birthday and so each month I have a fresh bag!!
5. Timbuk2 Eula bag – Just got this and I have no idea how I lived without it! I can pack my iPad, Kindle in back divider, my other essentials in the middle (wallet, inhaler, sunglasses, etc) and in the front pocket my pens (have to have at least 3 different colors), keys, bus pass…I can pack so much, in an organized fashion. Since May it has been to Ohio, New Orleans, Hawaii – super easy to get devices out for security. Now I want another in hot pink! (I have a high-vis orange.)

3.fresh produce (great summer for radishes, cucumbers, tomatoes, basil in boston) from csa and greenhouse bed at the food project
4. iced coffee (summer staple)
5. pop/dance music (nicki minaj, lady gaga, jlo, pitbull, rihanna, etc.) ignited by my brother-in-law’s 7pm-7am Mexican wedding in mid-May, refueled by a road trip to Michigan in late June/early July, and sustained by Spotify

1. iPhone (honestly, it scares me sometimes how much I love that phone)
2. Trip to Door County, WI. My husband and I discovered Door County last summer and made our second trip there this past July. It will likely be an annual trip, as it’s the perfect vacation spot.
3. MacBook Air. I have a 12-month contract and we’ve been short on work studies this summer, so I’ve had to work the front desk now and then. Being able to bring the Air means I can work the front desk but not have to deal with the ancient Windows desktop that sits there. Plus, I can haul it all over town and to meetings without getting a sore back from carrying around a heavy bag.
4. Live music. Forget Austin, Kansas City’s where it’s at if you want jazz. In addition to the regular monthly outings to see our favorite local band, we added some new clubs/bands this summer, which has been a lot of fun.
5. Air conditioning.

1. Family time. Both the kids will be in school every day from this fall-on, so this summer was particularly fun.

2. The Annual Epic Road Trip West. Lots of driving, but cool Flagstaff mountains, followed by cool San Diego beaches. Alas only one day at Comic-Con this year, but all four in 2012!

3. Kindle. Picked up just before #2, and love it as a Swiss Army Knife of text-based media. Reading’s very nice, and browsing frankly outstanding. Nice growing cheap app collection and an “experimental” but quite capable browser. Best of all: full-on 3G with no subscription fees, ever. Bliss.

4. LA Noire. Still working my way through it, but a hell of a game. Basically like playing through a James Ellroy novel. Very impressive innovations in gameplay and a jaw-dropping reproduction of 1947 Los Angeles.

5. Falling back in love with comics. After a few years of slowly souring on the output of the Big 2, my heart soared again on reconnecting with old friends (Alan Moore), finally getting around to old classics (Los Bros Hernandez), and discovering some recent ones (Brian Wood’s DMZ). And as much as I boldly explore the digital, this was all on glorious, lovely, gorgeous paper. As it should be.
