Biography
Thompson is also Japan Study Abroad Coordinator for Ohio University.
I am a cultural anthropologist who teaches Japanese Language and Culture Classes in the department. I also run our study abroad programs including ongoing tsunami relief work in Iwate Prefecture, Northeast Japan. I have been at OHIO University for about 15 years. I really enjoy our department because we are so diverse. I am an OHIO Men’s Basketball fanatic! Do not hesitate to let me know if there is anything I can do for you.
