On Wednesday November 1st the Management Team (Dr. Carmona, Dr. Rigobert and Mr. Smith) at the University of St. Martin (USM) welcomed Mr. E. Jerome and Ms. L. Myers from Monroe College to the USM Campus. The two institutions have had a very meaningful partnership, which has allowed for the seamless transition of USM graduates to Monroe College, for completion of their Bachelors Degree. Among the issues discussed at yesterday's meeting were: 1. Strengthening the relationship between the two institutions to allow for student and faculty exchanges; 2. Expanding program offerings at the undergraduate level, and 3. Offering joint degree programs (joint certification). These will find full expression in a revised MOU between the two tertiary institutions. Monroe College University of St. Martin
