How many guys from other countries does it take to win a National Championship? Good thing they all attended classes on campus the entire year..... :-) Makes everyone feel proud to see the American Record holder on the 4th place podium.

    Isolationism does not work economically or socially. We tried that route in the 1930s which only deepened the global depression and ultimately failed. Foreign students and workers bring revenue to our economy as well as contributing to our society as whole. I work and attend school with people from other countries, some plan to stay here others plan to return home. Out sourcing of jobs is something that comes with realizing we live in a global economy, while I dislike the idea on principle I realize that it is part of a capitalist economy. In either case, it really is unrelated to NCAA competition, in my humble opinion.
