MTSU Alumnus Returns to Vietnam

QUANG TRI PROVINCE, Vietnam - The Vietnam odyssey of Middle Tennessee State University alumnus William "Bud" Morris has come full circle. The Murfreesboro native calls his sojourn with the university's Vietnam study-abroad class "the greatest experience of my life." Nine students signed up for a pioneering history course that requires them to compare Vietnam and the Vietnam War as depicted in American media with what they learn on a 14-day tour of the country that ends March 24. Morris, now an insurance agent who bleeds State Farm red and MTSU blue, returned March 21 to the area where he served with the First Brigade, Fifth Infantry Mechanized Division of the U.S. Army during the Vietnam War.
