Now Let me Understand This:

My undergrad program was riddled with people looking for grants from NIH to fund the school. A friend of mine goes to US Pharm School which is constantly seeking financial support to fund their research programs and other stuff that they do up there. Would it not be realistic to assume that all schools everywhere including UWI, wont speak to Cuba as its communist and therefore governmetn funded, be in a similar position. If there were grant monies available to non US schools or Uni's, maybe people might not look at it the same way?

It is interesting to note the above and other posts about this. However, the earl dude above talking about the interview can be found in nearly all of the forums on here....saying similar and rather ridiculous things. I dont think his comments since they are WIDE spread on every forum including the so called big three are worth noting......Just my take on it........
