HEAD HUNTING

I had a friend visitor last week-end from Istanbul. We chat all day long. The conversation came to our children while he said that his son ( 28) who just graduated with a degree from the university where he studied “Comparable English Literature”. Immediately after  he was his application for doctorate to Stanford University was accepted. Now he is continuing to study with full scholarship for five years, paid housing and a small income for a living.

Isn’t it very miraculous? A brilliant Turkish guy attracted with marvelous conditions to the best university in the world. I am more astonished as he is not a high-tech man , nor a programmer.
He did not invent anything neither he is the owner a successful start-up.


I am pretty sure that the administration of this university is very farsighted. But why we are unable to evaluate the opportunity in our native country ?

Looks like a hat trick or magic !
