Thanks Dr. Esther.
Also, in case some of you did not see the original message:
Dear Mrs. Stroud:
This intended to inform you that I am the father of Cheju Paul Diaz, who want to study in your university on August. I and my wife are Christians missionaries, so our economy is rather low since my wife is in South Korea right now and I in Chiang Mai. This are the reason why I would like to ask to you if is feasible that my son Cheju Paul obtaine a scholarship from your university or perhaps a discount that could alleviate our multiples survival expenses as also we had a daughter of 18 years who is nearly finish Her high school in Seoul. Wishing you to meet our request, we can only wait for your welcome news. Our Lord Jesus Christ bless our lives in every moment of our lives, amen. Please accept my Sarmiento and Pleasanton greentings, José I.Diaz
I look forward to discussing options more. I have replied to Mr. Diaz briefly already and I would seek more information and let him know.

Yesterday I consulted with Aj Malee about this request for a scholarship for an IC student. She has a good suggestion for IC to ask for scholarships for situations like this.
This afternoon some of you planned to meet with James Krabill at 3 pm in the deans office of IC. James will not arrive until about 3:15. May I ask you all to meet and talk about Aj Malee's idea and discuss how to deal with this growing need in IC?
Thank you,
Esther

Good Morning Esther,
From a Student Development side of things is there any more information I should know in responding to a request such as this below? This is from a parent of a new incoming student for semester 1. As far as I know, there are no scholarships available for first time IC students, but once they are here they can apply for Community Service and Work Scholarship. Please let me know if there is something more to tell them. Or if there is someone in your office I speak to in more detail that would be helpful.
Thanks!
Mel
