There’s a shortage of places in California nursing schools, but they have a plan — outsource Nursing School:
If all goes as planned, as many as 40 bilingual Californians now stuck on nursing school waiting lists will begin classes in January at a college in Guadalajara, Mexico — apparently the first attempt by any state to outsource nursing education to another country.

Program supporters say it’s a reasonable way to train more Californians, especially those who can work in communities that need more Spanish-speaking health care workers.[Outsourcing education,By Keith Darc?©, The San Diego Union-Tribune, September 16, 2007]

And of course the reason they need Spanish-speaking health care workers is because of the massive influx of illegal immigrants who can’t speak English.
