Physical Education and Athletics (PE)
Six physical education (PE) units are required of all students, except transfer students, whose requirements are based on entering status. Sophomore transfer students need 4 units and junior transfers 2 units. Students who do not feel safe in deep water are encouraged to take a swimming course.
Most physical education courses meet two hours a week for one semester, for 2 PE units. Some courses, however, meet for half a semester, for 1 PE unit. Fees are indicated where required.
All students who are interested in trying out for an athletic team should contact the coach directly. Students should realize that there will be tryouts and selection at the beginning of each sports season. All teams practice five days per week. Practices are geneally held 4:30-6:30 pm Monday through Thursday and 3:30-4:30 pm Friday. If you have not yet been in contact with the fall sport coach, please do so as soon as possible because you must be invited to preseason training, which begins August 24th for fall sports.
