A group of College of Charleston business students and their professor will depart today for Cameroon, Africa, to bring new technology to elementary schools in the developing nation.

Students Brittany Errico, Courtney Marous, Will Munce and Carolyn Upchurch along with Dr. David Desplaces will take 11 laptops and a Smart Board to the city of Douala. During the 10-day trip, they will install the equipment and teach the students and teachers there about the technology and how it can benefit them. The group also will share their experiences on topics related to economic development, including entrepreneurship, environmental sustainability and business ethics.
