It is that time of the year again when most students are asked to write thank-you letters for scholarship donors. Many of you will receive an email sometime today reminding you to please go in and write a letter or two! If 70% of students who have been asked complete their letters, we will say “thank you” for saying thank you with an additional free lunch during the June intensives. Your letters need not be lengthy – just a few words of gratitude are very welcome. If you did not receive an email asking you to write a letter, don’t worry, there will be opportunities in the future for you to express your gratitude. Letters are due on April 2.
