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.
