Following Great Britain's exit from the European Union, the Netherlands aspires to become the new top destination for European students.

According to the Office of Education at the Dutch Ministry of Education, Culture and Sciences (DUO), the number of international students rose by 6,163 for the 2018-2019 year compared to the previous year’s statistics, making the total amount of international students in the Netherlands rise to 81,392. Education, primarily tertiary, has had an important place in the Netherlands' agenda for the past decade, a fact that is justified by the large amounts of money invested in this sector.

Brexit is expected to bring significant changes in the European Union not only regarding economic and foreign matters, but also education. UK universities attracted hundreds of thousands of people per year due to the high level of services they provide and their centuries old reputation as some of the oldest universities in Europe. The uncertainty concerning the conditions under which European students will study in the UK has led a lot of them to consider options, such as Dutch universities.

The low tuition fees, along with the plethora of employment opportunities offered in the country, have concerned other Member States, such as Germany, Italy, Greece and Belgium, which are the main countries of origin of international students residing in the Netherlands. Experts have claimed that the phenomenon of brain drain and its consequences are expected to deteriorate within the next year, putting the cohesion of the Union in jeopardy.

    whale spotted in illinois river A humpback whale was spotted near Morris IL in the Illinois River today. The sighting comes just days after 2 Great White Sharks were seen frolicking in the same area. While not impossible, it does seem unlikely. It is thought that the whale may have followed the sharks as they sometimes do in the wild. The whale would of had to travel over 1250 miles to get to this location. The Marine Biologist Association will be in town for a full investigation. Until we have answers, we are asking folks to keep their pontoons and fishing boats docked.

    two great white sharks found swimming in mississippi river near saint louis, missouri. While it is not entirely impossible, it is incredibly uncommon for salt water dwelling creatures to stay for lengthy periods of time in fresh water. However, two Great White Sharks have managed to survive the trip and make their way up the Mississippi River somehow. Believed to have started as a mating couple, the two are assumed to have swam the 920 mile journey from the mouth of the Mississippi River that is connected to the Gulf Of Mexico. Officials in Saint Louis have contacted the Missouri Conservation Department and will likely have a team in the river soon to capture the two lost sharks.
