BASIC Scholars express their thanks...
I want to say thank you for all the help and support this year. It really did make a difference... Without the ...support of the BASIC Committee, I believe I wouldn’t be able to continue my college endeavors. Thank you for believing in me and helping me to be one step closer to my dream. |
