I am in 2 minds about this. I often think that making changes for US readers (and viewers) underestimates their intelligence. Then I read some of the regular newspaper reports highlighting the insularity of US education, for example, the supposed inability to recognise locations outside the US. For instance, many US residents allegedly don't recognise the difference between Australia and Austria! Maybe it is a self-fulfilling prophecy if this is in fact true. Certainly my impression of higher education in the US is that it is mostly rigorous and the standards generally high. Is it really true that US residents require the mollycoddling they are given?
I'd suggest reading the original whenever possible.
