Before HIGGINBOTHAM, JONES, and DENNIS, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Aiguo Xie, a native and citizen of China who entered the
United States in 1992 as a non-immigrant foreign student, has
petitioned this court to review the Board of Immigration Appeal’s
(BIA) dismissal of his appeal of an order of deportation. Although
he admits that he has not maintained his status as a full-time
student, he contends that he was wrongfully terminated from the
doctoral program at Rutgers University and that he is willing to
continue his studies.
*
Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined
that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent
except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.
R. 47.5.4.
No. 97-60772

A review of the record reveals that the BIA’s decision was
supported by reasonable and substantial evidence. See
Carbajal-Gonzalez v. INS, 78 F.3d 194, 197 (5th Cir. 1996); see
also 8 C.F.R. § 214.2(f)(5)(i). Accordingly, Xie’s petition is
denied.
PETITION DENIED.
