Over 50 international students from the University of Texas at Dallas (UTD), the University of North Texas (UNT), Texas Tech University, and Texas Woman's University were removed from the Student and Exchange Visitor Information System (SEVIS), effectively having their student visas revoked, the Texas Tribune reported.
