ST. LUCIA, West Indies – You could say Briar Cliff University students learned the meaning of true happiness while on a 10-day mission trip to the island of St. Lucia in the West Indies, as a part of the University’s May Term Immersion Experience.

Traveling to the tiny impoverished nation in the British Commonwealth were BCU students Deanna Ayala, Racine, Wis.; Abby Buckhouse, Urbandale, Iowa; Jane Hartigan, La Vista, Neb.; Jake Rosenmeyer, Wesley, Iowa; and Chelsea Yockey, Moville, Iowa.
