a.  Rationale for creation, revision, or deletion:

 

1.     The Breadth Requirement of a second writing course outside of the department is being eliminated for the Health and Physical Education major. It has been difficult for students to gain enrollment in such a course due to the limited number of courses offered. The HPE program requires the students to do a great deal of writing that is appropriate for their professional development in several of the required courses within the department. This will reduce the number of credits required for the major from 125 to 122.

 

2.        There is also a revision in the organization of the Breadth Requirements for the major to eliminate confusion with the Breadth Requirements in the College of Arts and Science. (The new organization of the Breadth Requirements is presented at the end of this document.) This change will have no effect on the courses/credit hours required.

 

b.  Summary of program:

 

There are no changes in the required courses for the major, other than in the Breadth Requirements, as described above. The new Breadth Requirements for the major are presented below.
