The Trump administration on Tuesday rescinded guidance issued by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement ICE earlier this month that would have prohibited foreign students fromtaking online-only courseworkin the fall, walking back an announcement that elicited a flurry of lawsuits and withering criticism from schools, lawmakers and states.During a hearing Tuesday afternoon in which she was expected to rule on whether to block the recent guidance for student visas, Judge Allison Dale Burroughs of the U.S. District Court in Boston said ICE had agreed to scrap the directive.
