Democratic Sen. Sherrod Brown emphasized the need to keep college graduates in Ohio on a conference call with university media Wednesday.
"One of the missions I have as a senator … is, you know, how we make our state more livable, more attractive, more open to people your age so when you graduate, you stay," Brown said, noting that a large number of college graduates choose to leave Ohio.
"In 2008, only about 60 percent of bachelor's degree-holders and 55 percent of graduate degree-holders still lived in Ohio three years after graduating from an Ohio institution of higher education," he said. "Fifty-eight percent of Ohio college students say they plan to leave the state after graduation."
