Administration There is no typical day for the President of UNI, said Dr. John Kamcrick. However, there arc certain activities which recur regularly, like the monthly Board of Regents meeting, the scheduled committee meetings, and the Wednesday after- noon student appointments. Any of a great variety of activities can fill a ‘normal’ day. According to Dr. Kamcrick, the 1981-82 school year has been a good one for UNI. but it’s been a year of unccrtainitics too. Our North Central Association accreditation report turned out well, our faculty reached a new high in terminally qualified faculty members, and we continued to make progress toward becoming a good multi-purpose university,” said Ka- merick. On the negative side, it must be said that we have operated with a reduced budget because of reduced state income, and we have encountered increasing unccrtainity about the availability of student aid in future years.” President Kamcrick reminds this year’s students that “the value of higher education to the individual should never be measured by economic criteria .
