SCHOOL OF PHYSICAL TRAINING.

Physical Training B1: A student who elects this course must take it, either
wholly or in part, during his first year, and complete it by the end of his
second year.—Lectures and physical exercises. The lectures treat of the gross

anatomy of the body, the physical functions and mechanism of important organs,
the nutrition, growth and development of the body, its maintenance and care, including
the prevention of disease, and the problems of community hygiene. The
exercises consist of indoor work in the gymnasium and of outdoor work. The
latter is made of those sports and games which are under the general control of
the Faculty Committee on Athletics, and such other activities as the faculty shall
in future direct and for which adequate supervision shall be provided. As rapidly
as facilities increase, further work will be offered for those interested, and
particular attention will be given to those who wish to prepare themselves to be
teachers of physical education.—(B.A. or B.S. credit, 3 session-hours of electives-at-large.)
One lecture and six hours of physical exercises per week. Hours
to be arranged.
