Student Visas Pull Economic Jogger, Campus Waits Patiently
The world's most patient campuses have been left twiddling thumbs as visa delays and mysterious 'increased screenings' throw international students into a bureaucratic purgatory rivaling DMV Saturdays. While universities were gearing up for rolling out the red carpet this semester, a diplomatic snail race with visa officers instead played the role of the cruel bouncer. With no specific dates or CEOs to blame, the grand economic plan suffers as newcomers who fuel labs, tuition, and ramen cup economies are ghosted at embassy windows. Experts warn: if these delays go any longer, campus squirrels might unionize for less paperwork.

Visa officers took 'extra screening' so seriously, they invented a new sport: procrastinathon. Spoiler alert: nobody finishes, but the economy loses big.
