Re:      Annual University Recruitment Information and Exchange Applications

Greetings from North Carolina! We look forward to welcoming your students to UNCG. Would you be so kind as to respond by replying to me that you received this email and include (if you would) your complete snail mail address, telephone number and fax number if anything has changed in the past year so that we can update our partner data base.
