A third group of students from Drake University departed for
Uganda in mid May to join students from Makerere University Business School in
a joint seminar on sustainable development.
The group is documenting the trip on a blog at www.mubs-drake-seminar.blogspot.com.
The 16 Drake students are collaborating with eight students from
Makerere. They are accompanied by Drake faculty members:
- Debra Bishop, assistant professor of
management and international business - Jimmy Senteza, associate professor of
finance - Tom Root, associate professor of
finance
The group has visited the Queen Elizabeth National Park, the
Wildlife Education Center, several rural villages and a tourist attraction —
the Bunyonyi Resorts, among others.
