There are many sides to the life of a university pres- ident - travel, conventions, administrative work and civic activities. Perhaps the most outstanding aspect to the life of the Richard A. Harvills this year was their trips to Latin America. On behalf of the Carnegie Corpora- tion and the Institute of International Education, Dr. Harvill visited Guatemala, Colombia, Peru, Argentina, Chile and Brazil in order to study the systems of educa- tion in Latin and South American countries. On his return trip he was met by Mrs. Harvill in Puerto Rico where they both attended the Conference on Inter- American Exchange of Persons. In pursuit of their current joint hobby which is studying Spanish, the Harvills visited the Guadalajara summer school last summer. In addition to his many administrative duties at UA, Dr. Harvill holds membership in numerous organiza- tions including the American Economic Association and the Kiwanis Club of Tucson. Most of Mrs. Harvill's civic responsibilities are cen- tered around participation in national organizations, She is also working with faculty members and foreign students collecting Pan American music to be used by groups performing at UA. Reading is one of the favorite hobbies of the Richard Harvills 1 I I VI 'I 1 Q i 'r I I.
