"Physical Education for Women"

Miss Hoover, I have been hearing a great deal about the new
major physical education curriculum which was set up in the School of
Education last year. I have really heard more sbout it from the stand=
point of the men's coaching school instead of from the women's view
point. Did that new set-up affect the women's curriculum in any way?

Yes, Ruth, te women's curriculum was revised also, and we
believe wo have one of the best courses for the training of physical
education teachers.

I am interested in attending K. U. next year, majoring in
physical education, and I would like to know the general requirements
which I would have to meet.

The general requirements, Ruth, are made with the idea of giving
each girl a general knowledge of arts and sciences as well as a profes=
sional knowledge of her major subject ~- physical education. These are
the high school and general requirements -- 3 yoars of English, 2 years
of physical science or mathematics , 2 years of biological science, and
2 years of social science. If these have not been met in high school,
and not all of thom can be, they must be taken in the University.

Are there any specific general courses which mst be taken ot
the University?

Yes, Ruthe A girl must have 5 hours of rhetoric, 2 hours of
English literature, a 5 hour course in social science and the same in
history or economics, zoology, psychology, human anatomy, and a 2 hour
course in specche

Since I wish to teach physical education what educational courses

must I take to get my teachers cortifisate?
