'Sunflower' Is Voice Of 13 in Costa Rica
Page 7
Costa Rican reaction to the Dominican Republic crisis, coffee plantations, houses on stilts, and a "hunger for English" are among the varied subjects discussed in the second issue of "The Sunflower," a newsletter published by University of Kansas students spending their junior year in Costa Rica.
Thirteen students, accompanied by director Carlyle H. Smith, left Kansas in February to begin their study at the University of Costa Rica in San Jose.
Comments from the student-written articles in the issue include:
Regarding the Dominican Republic crisis, David Diepenbrock from Shawnee Mission wrote: "... We (the United States) had statements of support or condemnation from the three major political parties of Costa Rica. Their opinions ranged from apoplexy on one hand to gullibility on the other. ... The (University of Costa Rica) student government denounced the intervention and this was the signal for all the lunatic fringe organizations to run off hand-bills of denunciation..."
JUDY BEEMAN, Oxford: "Costa Ricans love to have a good time, and dance seems to be their favorite way of expressing their gaiety. As in most countries of Central and South America, the Latin rhythms are favorites although there are a few people who have accepted the 'twist' and 'shake.'"
Terry Fouts. Shawnee Mission:
"Here in Costa Rica there is a hunger for English. This interest is both
academic and practical. The practical side is easily seen by comparing the salary of a non-English-speaking secretary ($500 per month) to that of a bilingual secretary $1,200 per month). The ability to speak English comes in handy in almost every business because of the tremendous amount of trade with the U.S. and the ever-increasing U.S. tourism to this part of the hemisphere. . ."
AND FROM DIRECTOR SMITH:
AND FROM DIRECTOR SMITH.
"We have had good times together, have worked hard and it is quite revealing to see the changes which have come over each member. Most have matured and have become more self-reliant. Some of us have taken on some Costa Rican characteristics and if things continue as they have been going, we should return home a far better group than that which landed here in February."
The group will remain in Costa Rica through November as part of a broad exchange program with the University of Costa Rica, largely financed by both national governments and the Carnegie Corporation of New York.
Other members of the group, which includes four University of Colorado students, are: Ralph Loeffler, Kansas City, Mo.; Judy Myers, Overland Park; Judy Holden, Basehor; Marilee Neale, Galveston, Tex.; Theda Herz, Olathe; Kathy Sayers, Centerville; Karen Hamil, Sterling, Colo.; Kathryn Jend, Colorado Springs; Constance Jeanna Sweet, Fort Collins, Colo., and Margaret Ann Weimer, Denver.
