not.
Hey, it is just my educated opinion that we will never see a UW-Vancouver campus. It's not like I'm in charge of anything.

Whatever flaws you think exist with the current system of higher education in this country, it seems that the whole world still wants to come here for education.

Guess that depends how many USA Higher EDU grads you have hired, and how they contributed to your business. We hired many PhD STEM grads who were decent, but that had all received their undergrad and k-12 outside of the USA. So, they knew something before they arrived in the USA They just came for the 'nameplate', not the academics. (Good thing)

Those Stats don't qualify they can actually perform (which they likely can't if educated 100% in the USA). And... those would include the US Labor statistics who actually CAN work . (green card holders and legal immigrants who are employed in the USA) There are a LOT of them (fortunately for the USA employers). Hopefully 50% + at Vancouver Innovation Center, That's what we'll need to stay competitive and innovative.
