[QUOTE="Agamon, post: 4302447, member: 184"] What I was thinking there is that the UN might not sponser a teen that can turn paper different colors, or grow their hair really fast...unless further research can show that it may be of some use to helping the global community in some way (say the start of some untapped potential...there's those words again:D). The UN is not being completely altruistic here...but I'm getting ahead of myself. And not to say they turn away thousands of apps and accept only a few. There are only a relative handful of elites at this point. Not all elite powers are useful, but those of the students at the Institutes will be, and those that are deemed worthy are not turned away. But then, not all of them sign up either. The cause of the breakout from a couple years ago is not certain, but it is certain that, if the current trend continues, the number will increase as time goes by, thus the schools that are bigger than they currently need to be.
