The Physical Education Instructional Program provides opportunities for all students to develop competency in a variety of activities in sports, fitness, aquatic and specialized courses, while offering physical education credit courses necessary for fulfillment of degree requirements. Most of these credits will be taken in the Department of Physical Education, but other departments have courses that will satisfy either the physical activity or the wellness components of the requirement. The requirements are applicable to all undergraduate students across the five undergraduate schools. All non-activity classes are offered on a coed basis and most are letter graded.
Some classes carry an extra fee for equipment, transportation and instruction.
All students registered for a physical eduaction class, as of the first day of classes are liable for a physical education fee, as fees are non-refundable once classes begin. In other words, students who advance register for a course must drop it before classes begin if they do not intend to take the class. This fee applies to all students enrolled in physical education. Students are entitiled to a locker in either gym. However, failure to obtain a locker does not relieve the student of the financial responsibility for the fee.
