It's just been revoked

More than 2,000 students potentially face deportation after a London university had its licence to teach and recruit overseas students revoked. London Metropolitan University has had its right to sponsor students from outside the EU revoked, and will no longer be allowed to authorise visas. Ministers say the university is not tracking course attendance and that many students have no right to be there. So basically, this means that two thousand students will have to find somewhere else to study or go back home. Elsewhere in London, the Paralympics is under way following a spectacular opening ceremony with the British team aiming to win a record 103 medals. And speaking of medals, the sheriff of Arizona's Maricopa County, Joe Arpaio, said yesterday in Tampa that the Obama administration should give him a medal for apprehending undocumented immigrants rather than investigating him for his methods. "I should be getting a medal. The president should invite me to the White House ... and thank me for helping the government fight illegal immigration and the drug cartels," Arpaio told members of the foreign press covering the Republican National Convention. I don't know whose side to take on this issue, but he should at least stop questioning Obama's birth certificate. We would've had the same issue with McCain, who was born in Panama.
