if i can give you just the example of the program at harvard. i m here at a fellowship from the center of public leadership. every year they pick ten students from across the arab world to come study and harvard and this is fully funded by the government and there is no u.s. money that goes into it, but of the ten students there this year half of us wouldn t be able to come in if that ban is reinstated and even worse, the whole program might be in jeopardy. so again, we international students are not the people you want to keep out of the country. we go back to the middle east and we re ambassadors for the u.s. we ve experienced american kindness and american culture and we go back with that to our homes. as a mom, i always tell my kids there can be a silver lining to all of this, and i think yours will be this experience and ultimately what you take back and make it a better place. so ziad, thank you so much for
