One, it is illegal to use our military to guard the border. That is considered to be a "police action" and you cannot currently use the military for police. This was explored when we were trying to cut off the flow of drugs from the south.

Two, the educational visa thing gets tricky. This was explored as a way to keep Chinese students out of our universities to stem the flow of advanced technology (esp. military technology) from leaving our country. The majority of Universities will tell you that if we cut off foreign students, there won't be anyone to do the advanced research and grants work that foreign grad students do.
