Congratulations to doctoral student Ryan W. Booth who has received a Fulbright U.S. Student award to spend nine months in India exploring socio-cultural characteristics attributed to indigenous soldiers during the British Raj up to a century ago.
His work adds an international element to his dissertation, and may well lead to a new global thread of research in the area of military history.
Booth is WSU’s 62nd student to receive a Fulbright since 1949, the ninth from the his…tory discipline, and the fifth to study or teach in India; the next-most-recent studied there in 1965.
