Where Do International Students Work after Graduation? Optional Practical Training and the New Geography of Jobs
This article examines the geographic distribution of Optional Practical Training (OPT) employment by international student graduates of Missouri’s colleges and universities between 2007 and 2017. OPT is a temporary employment program that international students are eligible to apply for after graduating with a degree from a college or university in the United States. It offers twelve months of employment authorization, and students can work anywh…

The Impact of Migration on Poverty Concentrations in the United States, 1995-2000: Migration on Poverty Concentrations
Poverty is frequently conceptualized as an attribute of either people or places. Yet residential movement of poor people can redistribute poverty across places, affecting and reshaping the spatial concentration of economic disadvantage. In this article, we utilize 1995 to 2000 county-to-county migration data from the 2000 United States decennial census to explore how differential migration rates of the poor and nonpoor affect local incidence of p…
Poverty Catchments: Migration, Residential Mobility, and Population Turnover in Impoverished Rural Illinois Communities
Research has thoroughly documented how out-migration of the educated and skilled from rural areas leaves behind a poorer population and creates pockets of rural poverty. Recently, studies have recognized that the poor are also geographically mobile and that poverty migration patterns can reinforce rural poverty concentrations. In this process, certain impoverished rural communities in economically depressed regions receive a disproportionate shar…
Geographic Mobility and Residential Instability in Impoverished Rural Illinois Places
Impoverished rural places are often depicted as immobile communities populated by less skilled, less educated nonmovers who have been left behind by selective out-migrants. Yet certain poor rural localities exhibit high rates of in-migration and residential mobility, an underresearched phenomenon not easily explained by conventional migration theory. The authors explore factors associated with high rates of geographic mobility in impoverished rur…
