The other Open Doors

Ironically "Open Doors" is the annual Open Doors publication and website is a statistical analysis of academic mobility between the U.S. and the nations of the world. It is a comprehensive, national data and information resource on foreign students studying at U.S. institutions of higher education, foreign scholars who teach and conduct research at U.S. doctoral granting institutions.

The latest report on Trinidad Migration here states the

Stock of emigrants as percentage of population: 27.7%

Emigration rate of tertiary educated: 78.4%


Despite the statistics, like the narrator of Bedside Manners, I have returned to my homeland.
