On December 3, 2019, an immigrant from India, who grew up without much access to a computer, the Internet or even a telephone, was named the CEO of one of the largest technology companies in the world. Sundar Pichai, who was already serving as the CEO of Google, was appointed CEO of Alphabet, which is the parent company of Google, after Sergey Brin and Larry Page decided to allow someone else to run the global technology giant. Sundar Pichai did not own a computer until after moving to the USA to attend Stanford University in California on a scholarship. After he earned his Master’s Degree in Engineering at Stanford, he went on to receive an MBA at the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton Business School and was hired by Google in 2004. He was asked if he thought the American Dream is still alive and this US immigration success story replied that the United States continues to be a “land of opportunity.” Sergey Brin is another US immigration success story who, after moving to America from the former Soviet Union with his parents when he was 6-years-old, also found opportunities in the USA made available through a university education.
