"International students do more than contribute nearly $13 billion to the American economy each year; they provide a personal connection that is essential to achieving peace among nations. For decades, international students at our colleges and universities have fostered a greater understanding among cultures, strengthening our image around the world and generating greater trust among peoples. Intensive English programs are a critical part of these interactions, easing entry into American culture and encouraging further enrollment from abroad."

-- Congressman Earl Blumenauer, Oregon
