An article in the Washington Post discusses concerns that Ebola might curtail the flow of international students in the coming year. Interviewed for the article, IIE President and Chief Executive Officer Allan Goodman remarked, "American higher education has shown through repeated crises, whether terrorism, disease or natural disasters, that we want to keep our doors open. It reflects our enduring values—and the benefits that foreign students bring to our campuses ... including West Africans."
