K«« COR.NHUSK.£l »»» iMMUtaiMiiiBai THE GIRLS ' GYMNASIUM Women ' s Athletics THE Division of Physical Education for Women is unique among departments of its kind for the extent to which it reaches into every University woman ' s activity during her stay on the campus. This division is under the direct supervision of Miss Lee. It is unique in the spontaneity of support which it receives. Physical education is required of all young women entered in the University for the first two years of residence except, (1) students over twenty-five years of age, (2) students entering with advanced credits, and (3) students carrying no more than six hours work. Special individual gymnastics are arranged for those physically unfit to participate in the general work. A four-year course is offered in the Teachers College in physical education. The purpose of this course is to prepare young women to direct physical education in the schools of the state as well as to prepare them to teach one or two academic subjects in combination with physical education when- ever necessary. All who take this course must be physically fit at the time of entrance, being able to produce a health certificate from a physician declaring them to he in condition to undertake such work. Close check upon the health conditions of these students is maintained by a yearly examination by the University Department of Student Health. The completion of this course entitles the student to the degree of Bachelor of Science in Educa- tion, the University Teachers Certificate, and the certificate in Physical Education. The Women ' s Athletic Association, working in conjunction with the Division of Physical Educa- tion for Women stands as sponsor for a full program of sports. It carries the healthy stimulus of competitive athletics to all women of the University through its intramural activity. As a member of the Athletic Conference of American College Women, it takes a definite stand against intercollegiate athletics for women. Its slogan is Every Nebraska Woman in some sport and a sport for every Nebraska Woman. How largely successful the Association and Division have been in carrying out this slogan is witnessed by the variety of sports offered, including as it does: Archery, horseshoe pitch- ing, bowling, rifle marksmanship, speed ball, hockey, soccer, Nebraska ball, basketball, horseback riding, tennis and for Physical Education Majors track is taught. Participation in these sports leads to the honor award granted by the Women ' s Athletic Association — the privilege of wearing the Nebraska N . As evidence of the fact that W. A. A. is interested in things other than those merely caUing for athletic prowess we may cite the Dance Drama, original clogs, folk dances. Song Contest, and Co-ed Follies as activities supported by the Association. -194— s« « N !KI€T€€KI T+HI R TV ONE »8
