[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow. You're right about the getting out and returning. And it's hard to see that happening much. Similar to: You hear that story, rarely, about say, a college basketball star who gets a really good education, then goes back and gets involved in his or her city community. Anecdotally, I have NEVER heard of someone getting out of KY or wherever, getting a masters or Ph.D., then going back to live and work in that same community. Not even a human interest story on the evening news. [/quote] There is a lot of unglamorous work people do who return to those regions with higher education. For example, faculty at regional state universities have PhDs, faculty at rural community colleges have PhDs and masters degrees, doctors at rural hospitals have medical degrees, and so on.[/quote]
