Just curious... an answer of yours on the humanities refdesk edit
I found your humanities refdesk suggestion to the singaporean-malay student to consult an immigration lawyer odd.
University policy on refunding fees should a foreign student be unable to complete their course due to immigration law changes IS something the University could comment on - I wouldn't know if they would necessarily have any plans at this point as to how they will handle this situation should it ever arise, but it can't hurt to ask.
But how could any lawyer advise on a hypothetical law which at the moment is nothing more than a bunch of Trump statements / thought bubbles? If there was already a draft version of a proposed law before congress, a lawyer could advise what the law would mean for his client should it be passed. But with Trump's immigration reform proposals, we're a long way from that point. The specifics of any actual legislation which may eventuate are largely speculative, and are still subject to a winding procedure before even a draft version emerges. (BTW, from my understanding of Trump's words, he only plans to "blacklist" those countries where background checks cannot be performed. I doubt Singapore, a first-world country with effective police and intelligence services, would fall into this category. But like everything, that's speculation). Just curious, do you expect a lawyer to be able to advise in this situation, and if so, how?
You can respond either here or on my talk page. Thanks :) Eliyohub (talk) 16:12, 17 November 2016 (UTC)
