HIGHER EDUCATION BUBBLE UPDATE: Heavy Recruitment of Chinese Students Sows Discord on U.S. Campuses. “On some campuses, wealthy Chinese students stand out for their extraordinary opulence—and fuel resentment in the process. Ashley Yao, a student at Stony Brook University in New York, speeds to classes in a tricked-out BMW X5 M sport-utility vehicle. The 25-year-old wears haute couture and hangs out with other wealthy Chinese-born university students who drive candy-colored Lamborghinis, Ferraris and McLarens. Ms. Yao, who lives in a four-bedroom house her parents bought for her, says she finds it difficult to connect with the U.S. students on campus.” It’s all about the money.
