Passport to the World Journeys to Cuba

March 6, 2017 – Explore the “Pearl of the Caribbean” with Collin College professors Stephen Whitley and Frozina Goussak as they share their experiences and impressions of Cuba as part of the college’s Passport to the World series of lectures. The presentation, planned for 1-2:15 p.m., Tuesday, March 14 in the Spring Creek Campus Living Legends Conference Center, is free and open to the public.

Professor Whitley visited Cuba for the first time in March 2016 and Professor Goussak grew up in Havana. Together, the two will share the wonderful sights and sounds of this beautiful island nation, which was largely shut off to Americans for decades.
