Senate Bill to Stop Foreign Student Brain Drain

I came across an article that might be of interest to a lot of MBA students considering foreign students make up 40% of many programs. Senators John Kerry and Richard Lugar are working on legislation that would allow more foreign graduates of U.S. universities to stick around and start their own businesses here in the United States.

From speaking to many of my international classmates I know how difficult it can be to live and work here a year or two after graduation. This proposed bill would allow foreign graduates of U.S universities to be sponsored by investors to continue to live here and create businesses. This makes a lot of sense to me and would result in job creation and knowledge worker retention here in the United States.
