"This is why Asia is winning, by the way." Winning at what, exactly? What a loaded statement... with absolutely no substance. Also, I'm not all that familiar with the U.S. college system, but if you were highly interested in math and science wouldn't you go to a different kind of university than a liberal arts college (i.e.one with a bigger focus on math, science, engineering)? So what is the relevance of comparing U.S. liberal colleges with 'Asia'?
