RE: Science scholarships help Hispanic students overcome barriers
if mexican students want role models, there are a few. first dr. molina, winner of the nobel prize. secondly, though the students in the u.s. cannot see them, all the very good scientists working in mexico doing important and good work. the country is loaded with them. mexican students in the u.s. might consider coming back to mexico and attending college there where it is far cheaper. grad school is available and most of that will be paid for by scholarship or fellowship. there are many first class universities and med schools and a number of great grad schools. best of all, if the students remember any of their , or their parents' language, they will have an advantage for as they go on to do research they have to write their publishable papers in English.
and where did the earlier poster get the number of foreign scientists coming to the u.s. to work; 75000/month. he must have had a bad dream to make up the number.
