Western Michigan Institute has formalized an agreement with the DR that will allow scores of Dominican students to study at the university through government sponsored scholarship programs. The initial stages of the agreement were signed on 7 January and finalized on 23 January. In all, 60 Dominican students have registered as undergraduates for the Spring '08 semester. A press release from the university informs that President John M. Dunn traveled to the Dominican Republic for the signing ceremony and that Ligia Amada Melo de Cardona, Minister for Higher Education, Science and Technology (SEESCyT), signed the pact on behalf of the DR. The WMU-DR agreement is based on an ongoing initiative called the Dominican Scholars Program, which was launched in 1996 by President Leonel Fernandez.
