Michelle Thompson of Windham is one of 29 Susquehanna University juniors participating in the Sigmund Weis School of Business’s London Program during the 2006 spring semester.

The program is designed to provide students with an international experience to develop and expand their learning capabilities and broaden their perspectives about possible careers. While abroad, students complete courses in operations management, quantitative methods for business, international business practice, and management and organizational behavior. They are educated in British theater, during which time they attend various plays and meet with several actors and directors. They tour various businesses throughout Europe from steel plants to investment banks. Many of the courses are exclusive to the London Program and are taught by British professors.

Thompson, a marketing major at Susquehanna University and 2003 graduate of Windham High School, is the daughter of Rhonda Lamb of Windham and Raymond Thompson of Wilmington, N.C.
