As I read American brain gain I research that Mr.Geoffrey Parker 
was a professor at St. Andrews University in Scotland, he was then 
offered a position triple his salary at the University of Illinois in 
the U.S. According to the education experts many students have crossed 
the borders to join American schools for better education.
    It 
was interesting learning others struggle and how they survived the 
struggle and still maintained to manage school. Last year out of 700,000
 American University professors 2,750 were foreigners. According to the 
education experts this number has doubled over a decade. For example at 
the University of  Illinois 270 of their teachers were foreigners. The 
largest number of foreigners from last year was from Canada with 
205, India with 193,and more, nearly half of the foreigner teachers came
 from Asia.
    Eventually, Professor Parker 43 years of age took
 the offer at the University of Illinois the same day it was offered to 
him, he was very excited. When he started working for them he knew it 
would be different but he didn't know whether it was for better or 
worst. It turned out to be for the better. In England they cut their 
schools budgets not only once but twice by 15 percent both times. In Mr.
 Smelser opinion which i agree with is "if you stay in school long you 
will have more money and more job opportunities with higher salaries. 
Stephen Duck came from England to the United States and made double his 
salary here in the U.S.
    Business and engineer majors have 
great opportunities once they receive their master degree. The amount of
 money wont change and neither will the people unless they choose to get
 fired or something. Mr.Duck says that there is more freedom in the U.S 
than their is in England.
 In conclusion this article is talking 
about how foreign students come to America to receive their education 
because it better.
