Hi Ms. Chavez-Casas,
Its Pedro Alemán. Everything is going great as it is now my second year in college!!! I have been meaning to contact you, because my school is starting a new program for multi-cultural students, mainly from a low-income community, who are interested in applying to my school or who are thinking about college. It is called Pathways to PC and it is going to be on November 4th. It is a one day event where high school seniors can see what is it like to attend classes here at my school, and also have Financial Aid sessions along with descriptions of scholarships my school offers for accepted multi-cultural students.

I know that it is a big commitment, and that it is far away, but my school will give some vouchers for students to fly into Providence. I was thinking of hopefully bringing 1 or 2 maybe 3 students to my school to come check it out. This is an opportunity that is once in a lifetime, and I know that my school has changed my life dramatically and will impact a SUHi Red Devil!!!! If you have any questions or would like to have more information, please please don't hesitate to contact the coordinator in charge of this event. Her name is Karen Vargas and her e-mail is kvargas1@providence.edu, and she would gladly answer any questions you have. Here is a link for more information!!!! We need more California, especially National City, kids here!!!!
