"Fifteen of our country's most prominent business organizations have joined
together to express our deep concern about the United States' ability to sustain its
scientific and technological superiority through this decade and beyond. To maintain
our country's competitiveness in the 21st century, we must cultivate the skilled scientists
and engineers needed to create tomorrow's innovations.
...Our organizations feel strongly that the United States must respond to this challenge
as energetically as we did to the Soviet Union's launching of Sputnik in the
1950s. To remain the technological leader in the 21st century, we must establish
and achieve an ambitious goal: We must double today's science, technology,
engineering and mathematics graduates with bachelor's degrees by 2015."
