I was helping my son plan his spring schedule and while looking at his core curriculum requirements I noticed that he needs 2 hours of PE to graduate. I called an asst. to the academic adviser and she verified that this is the case, even for athletes at the college. I asked if he could get credit from playing baseball and she said no. I was quite surprised! Is this typical at other colleges? If so, what type of PE do the players take and at what time of year? Sure seems like overkill to me.
