Alexander is the first person in the family to go to university. He is studying a degree in civil engineering at Birmingham State College, and is two terms away from graduating. He has worked as a delivery rider to pay the way, but this term the hours were cut and there's an unpaid balance of $4,150. The registrar has said Alexander can't enroll for the next term until the balance is cleared. Alexander has a first-class average, and an academic advisor has written in support. Graduating means a stable job and the chance to support the younger siblings. Without enrolling this term Alexander would lose his place and scholarship eligibility. Alexander isn't asking for a handout - He wants to finish what He started and help the next student. The payment will go directly to the Birmingham State College bursar's office. I'll post the receipt. Where the $4,150 goes: • Final term tuition: $2,300 • Exam and lab fees: $145 • Outstanding tuition balance: $1,705 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - Gloria
