Anita Herzfeld, director of the KU Study Abroad program, said Day was well qualified to replace last year's director in Costa Rica, John Augelli, professor of geography.
"Professor Day will make a very good director because he has been to Latin America several times and speaks Spanish very well," Herzfeld said. "He is also a very understanding
human being who works well with students."

In 1974, he was president of the International Division of the Association for Education in Journalism. That same year he was a Senior Fulbright Lecturer at the University of La Plata, Argentina.
Day said, "Students should think about a semester abroad. Students who study abroad find that they are much more prepared when if they never travel abroad again."

He will teach a reporting course at the University of Costa Rica and advise 25 students from KU who will be studying there.

Bushy said Student Organizations, which comprises a number of other student groups, and the Senate's unallocated fund would probably receive an increase, but he was not sure of the amount.
Finance panel overwhelmed by requests
Earlier in the week, David Amberli, vice chancellor for student affairs, said he would oppose a large increase in the student activity fee.
