In addition, because international colleges and programs are not restricted to foreign students, but are also open to Taiwanese students, in class students from Taiwan and Southeast Asia are often too shy to open their mouths, with the result that "discussion is dominated by students with the best English." This is a common problem experienced by many professors.
此外，由於國際學院及國際學程開的課並不只限於外籍生，本地生也可修讀，而在課堂中，台灣和東南亞學生怯於表達，導致「英語好的學生往往獨佔舞台、主導討論」，這是許多老師的共同困擾。
