While a federal judge has issued a restraining order to temporarily block the administration's order, these students should explore their options for a backup plan.
Just hours after the revocation announcement, at least
five Hong Kong universities have signalled their interest in welcoming these students. The question is, will they be enticed to come to Hong Kong?
What we need is a targeted marketing strategy that can meet the needs and priorities of these students. Harvard students are among the world's academic elite – the crème de la crème. A mere unconditional offer may not be enough to attract them. Likewise, run-of-the-mill scholarships are unlikely to sway this financially capable cohort.

However, where Hong Kong universities may have a distinct advantage is in catering to the research aspirations of the graduate students among them. For those pursuing advanced degrees such as a Master of Philosophy or PhD, publishing in top academic journals is a critical benchmark of success. Hence, having an established and well-connected supervisor can help these students navigate the rigorous publication process. This symbiotic dynamic between student and supervisor is a major draw for scholars seeking the finest mentorship and professional networks.

FAW, China's oldest carmaker, eyes 10% of Leapmotor to boost stake in EV surge
FAW Group , mainland China's oldest carmaker, plans to acquire a 10 per cent stake in Stellantis-backed electric vehicle (EV) maker Leapmotor , as the state-owned automotive giant looks to enhance its competitiveness in the segment, according to Cailian, a Shanghai-based financial news outlet. The investment would pave the way for the two companies to jointly develop new EV models, fine-tune supply-chain management and bolster overseas expansion, the report said. Leapmotor declined to comment, while FAW could not be immediately reached for comment on Wednesday. Two sources with knowledge of FAW and Leapmotor's thinking said the companies were putting the final touches on an investment agreement that would benefit both parties by controlling costs and boosting research and development.

Trump slams Smithsonian for focusing on ‘how bad slavery was', threatens funding
US President Donald Trump suggested on Tuesday he will pressure the Smithsonian Institution – a premier museum, education and research complex for US history and culture – to accept his demands, just like he did with colleges and universities by threatening to cut federal funding. In a social media post, Trump complained about what he called excessive focus on 'how bad Slavery was.' 'I have instructed my attorneys to go through the Museums, and start the exact same process that has been done with Colleges and Universities where tremendous progress has been made,' Trump said on social media. The Smithsonian, which was established in 1846 and includes 21 museums and galleries and the National Zoo, had no immediate comment. Most of its museums are in Washington. The White House said last week it will lead an internal review of some Smithsonian museums after Trump earlier this year accused it of spreading 'anti-American ideology' and raised alarm among civil rights advocates.
