More Chinese Students Abroad Are Deciding Not To Return Home.
Hertling, James
Chronicle of Higher Education, v43 n29 pA51,A53 Mar 28 1997
In 18 years, over 260,000 Chinese students have left China to study abroad, and only about one-third have returned. Their flight is compounding the devastation of China's knowledge and talent pool that began with Mao Ze-dong. China is encouraging study abroad, to rectify the loss of a generation of academics, and is most interested in science and engineering students. (MSE)
