Colombia: Professors Dr. Keith and Lisa Terry went to Colombia this past summer to teach English to members of the national police force. Their job was to teach English to about 100 members of the national police force for six weeks. Dr. Keith Terry, a UNK professor, said, "They're working more and more with the American military. When members of the American military go there and work on projects, they want to be able to have one-on-one conversations."
