Assisting with preparation for another group of students to travel to South Korea

I have been blessed to continue my studies at Alabama State University in the Master of Accountancy program and to have the opportunity to work with Dr. Kamal Hingorani. Dr. Hingorani is the professor that wrote the proposal and received the prestigious Business and International Education Grant for Alabama State University which has made possible the study-tours to South Korea. He does not like for anyone to give him recognition for his acheivements but he has done wonderful things for ASU. I just wanted to give him a shout out for his accomplishment.
We are in the process of making the selection of students to make the trip in the Spring. These student's do not have any idea just what the impact this trip will have on them, if nothing more than a lifelong memory. I am so excited for them. I truely look forward to help with the planning of this trip and encouraging more students to become involved in this program. We are hopeful that we are awarded this grant for two more years in order to really get things off the ground and establish this program within our college.
