Great, another Gov agency to watch us.
Oh, my Lord:
If we remain/become the best and the brightest nation we will attract the best/brightest students. If we are not first rate then we will have the same uphill battle that England and Canada do in attracting doctors.Quote:
....to enhance our nation’s economic, scientific, and technological competitiveness by finding new, innovative ways to encourage the “best and brightest” international students to study and remain in the United States while we maintain our national security standards.
In his first two years FDR established 65 new agencies. I believe they are all still alive and well.:(
Obama. God:mad:
I don't think we need to "attract" doctors, I think we need to groom them.Quote:

We have artificially extended childhood in this country, and our high school drop out rate is showing that we need to rethink the options we give teenagers. Generic high school educations and generic college degrees in nonproductive areas of study is giving us a generation of people with degrees who aren't qualified to do anything.
We shouldn't be importing doctors, we should be growing doctors. A huge roadblock to that end is that we have a bunch of education majors and other self-proclaimed academics driving the education bus, and if they can't make the demographics of the programs fit their philosophy, then they will shut down the programs rather than deal with the reality.
