“Wright State is going to be the kind of poster child for the kinds of abuses that are occurring under the guest worker program,” said Hal Salzman, a senior fellow at the John J. Heldrich Center for Workforce Development at Rutgers University.
Wright State is under federal investigation because it held H-1B work visas for foreign workers who didn’t work at the school. The university’s provost and a researcher have been demoted, WSU’s chief general counsel was forced into retirement and another top administrator was fired.
