Another thing is the language barrier. Other than the profs who can't speak a lick of English that was previously mentioned, it is incredibly annoying when you're doing a group project and the Asians in your group tend to converse in their native tongue, rather than English, because it's more convenient or because they don't fully grasp the English language. Three of the past four groups I've done projects with(three groups were randomly assigned) have had the aforementioned problem(including a girl who couldn't speak English at all)
It's ridiculous if they are knowingly letting international students who can't speak English pass through the acceptance process
