U NIVERSITY OF ST. THOMAS | Annual Report 2008-2009
In May 2009, UST psychology students Yvonne Tran, Shermeen Abdullah, Whitney Baggett, Aidee Garza, Kailey Posterick, Brandon Yates, Margot Perkins, Sashi Nisankarao, Misbah Khatri, Richard Bradley, Travis Wedeking and Joe Konkel traveled to Singapore for a course in Cross-Cultural Psychology led by Dr. Elizabeth Maynard, assistant professor of psychology. Singapore was chosen, she explained, because East and West meet in Singapore, an island nation home to citizens of Chinese, Malaysian, Indian, and English ancestry. UST’s nationally recognized Study Abroad Program continually provides opportunities for students, many of whom have never left the country, to develop a global perspective.
