Hi Whan,
How are you? How is school going this year? Jennifer is back in Cincinnati and sends her regards. She is getting ready to present her thesis proposal and begin classes.
I wanted to write to thank you for the lovely gift. I have it on the wall in my office where everyone can see it. Thanks as well for helping Jennifer with her work. She has done very well, and I know you are part of the reason why.
I look forward to seeing you again soon and also to working with you when you start on your PhD. You, Jen ad I should be a good research team. In any case, enjoy the year. Please say hi to everyone and tell Dean Tarawut that I am sending another two really good students this year. One is a Chinese-American woman who speaks Mandarin and the other is a Fijian-American who was a Peace Corps Volunteer in Thailand for 2 years and speaks Thai. They should be fun.
Best regards,
