I stumbled across the following opinion piece which appeared in the Boston Globe last month.

Wrote Miller: “Teaching in college, especially one with a large international student population, has given me a stark — and unwelcome — illustration of how Americansâ?? work ethic often pales in comparison with their peers from overseas.”
