Amid funding shortages, American colleges are turning to international students, who offer a lifeline to cash-strapped U.S. state schools.

Questions:
1. How many international students were enrolled in U.S. Universities last year?
2. What percent increase have universities seen in the enrollment of international students since the 2005/2006 school year?
3. Discuss what is happening to the financial reliance on tuition for state schools from the 1990s to the present day.
