        II.  Addition to Physical Education Curriculum



             A.  PE 127  Jogging



                 1.  Course Description - The primary aim is for overall

                     cardiorespiratory development by jogging and walking

                     as the main mode of exercise.  These will be 

                     supplemented by flexibility and condition exercises

                     for muscle tone.  Prerequisite:  physical examination.



                 2.  Rationale



                     a.  The course has been tried under Special Topic

                         Designation during the two (2) semesters of

                         1980-81 year.



                     b.  The course was offered in 6 sections with an

                         average enrollment of 23 students.



                     c.  The student response, those who actively took

                         the course, seems to be highly enthusiastic.

                         This statement is justified by responses of

                         Physical Education Department "Student Evaluation

                         of Faculty and Course" form.

                     d.  The concept of jogging is almost universal in the

                         society of the day.  The student should have some

                         theory and facts along with the jogging for 

                         individual fitness.  



             B.  PE  132  Archery



                 1.  Course Description - This course is designed to 

                     introduce the student to the many facets of the 

                     sport which may be utilized avocationally throughout

                     one's lifetime.  Material for study and practice

                     will include:  archery tackle, history, safety and

                     skill fundamentals.



                 2.  Rationale:



                     a.  This course concept has been tried out under the

                         Special Topics designation during both semesters

                         of 1980-81 calendar year.
