EXACTLY, Chas!UI screwed this lady over like nobody's business.  Everything is fine and dandy as long as the university is getting something out of the deal.When the university placed her in an unemployed status, they virtually forced her to violate (and terminate) her visa.  Instead of going to bat for her (and showing her that the university cares and has a conscience), they kicked her to the proverbial curb.  That is NOT the University of Idaho that I have learned to admire, nor is it the University of Idaho with which I care to associate.I have lost ALOT of respect for my alma mater.Seeya round town, Moscow.Tom Hansen
