[quote=Anonymous]Aaron Dowd, 18, a high school senior in Maryland, said he applied to the University of Toronto two days after the presidential election, at his mother’s urging. Mr. Dowd will pursue a mechanical engineering degree and hopes to use it to do medical research. Initially, “Canada was nowhere on my list,” he said, adding that his top choice had been the University of Maryland. Studying in Canada “was basically going to be a plan B just in case things in the country went south as a result of the new administration.” But when the National Institutes of Health and other research institutions began to experience cuts, Mr. Dowd’s plan B appeared to be the “safest option” for his education and future career, he said.[/quote]
