Feds: Student Visa Fraud Ring Found at Florida School

Associated Press: A Florida language school helped illegally obtain student visas for foreign nationals who never went to class, violating laws enacted after the September 11 terrorist attacks exposed weaknesses in the program, authorities said Thursday. Eighty-one student visa holders purportedly studying at the Florida Language Institute have been arrested. None was on any federal watch list or linked to terrorism, U.S. authorities said, though investigators were checking their backgrounds.
