Physical Education The basis of the Greek ideal was harmony of the elements; Whether in architecture, art, logic, or athletics, unity was synonymous with perfection. The harmony of mind and body necessitates physical development; to this end Black Hills requires four hours of physical education for every student. One hour is devoted to Rhythms, a course which emphasizes dance. Rhythms is particularly appropriate to the over-all idea of developing harmony between mind and body, as the nature of dance unifies physical ability with mental concentration on the movements involved. The Division of Physical Education offers majors and minors for men and women.
