Stone: International
curriculum expands

M. Priscilla Stone, Ph.D., has been appointed director of the Office of International Studies and adjunct professor of anthropology in Arts and Sciences, according to Edward S. Macias, Ph.D., executive vice chancellor and dean of Arts and Sciences.

Stone will direct the University initiative to expand the curriculum and programming in this major area of undergraduate and graduate education. In addition, the existing functions of international studies -- including funding programs such as the Fulbright and international program development -- will continue.

Under Stone's leadership, several programs have been consolidated in international studies. The Office of Overseas Programs, guided by Interim Director Robert Booker, now is directly incorporated into international studies. Booker replaces Michele W. Shoresman, Ph.D., who has become director of graduate and joint degree programs in the School of Law.
