The Physical Education program is directed to the twin goals of
lifetime fitness and wellness through lifetime physical activity. A wide range
of sports and activity courses are available to enhance the wellbeing
of the learner. Students can develop and implement their own personal
wellness/ fitness program with regard to exercise, relaxation, nutrition
and wellness principles. A total of four credit
hours in physical education may be applied to the total number of
credit hours required for graduation.
To fulfill the College's liberal education requirements, two credits
are required in wellness and physical fitness. A student must demonstrate
an understanding and appreciation of the importance of physical
care, development, and wellness, and engage in wellness and physical
fitness activity.
