Miss Washington referees a basketball gameg this is one of the major sports at Coker. PHYSICAL EDUCATION But Mrs. Saunders, I just can't keep my back straight, and my legs tight, my toes pointed, and do the exercise too! One poor girl has decided that modern dancing isn't so easy as it looks. Everybody is introduced to this feeling sometime during their stay at Coker as modern dancing is one of the requirements for a degree. If they don't acquire social grace in this course, they may have a try at square, tap or social dancing. There's a hockey game today, someone shouts. Let's go and give our team moral support. Down at the athletic field some girls are strapping on shin- guards and trying to find a hockey stick the right length. Others are running up and down the field try- ing to connect the stick with the ball. Another familiar sight to everyone is a group of girls heading to or from the stables in their riding out- fits. The discussions heard among these groups of equestriannes are strictly for the horsey set, for who else would know what is meant by posting on the correct diagonal, and ucantering on the right or left lead? Coker offers a variety of competitive team sports, such as basketball, volleyball and softball, in the phys- ical education curriculum. During the fall and spring, the tennis courts are always full, and a carload of girls may usually be seen heading for the golf-course. Also offered are archery, recreational games, gymnastics and swimming. 78 PSYCHOLOGY AND EDUCATION Psychology and Education help prepare students for the teaching profession. In order to be a good teacher one must understand the personalities of others and know how to handle all classroom situations. Standard deviation and central tendency are familiar terms to the Psychology student. Various tech- niques and methods in the solution of emotional prob- lems prove an interesting study to many students. The study of Developmental Psychology under Miss Helen Mills, associate professor of Education and Psychology, is informative and interesting. Many of these students feel almost capable of applying their newly acquired knowledge in a child guidance clinic. Philosophy of Education and Methods of Teaching prepare students for practice teaching. These two courses are under the instruction of Mr. Benjamin Bray, assistant professor of education and speech, and Dean Kenneth Kuehner, professor of education and psychology. Education students are aided in formu- lating their philosophies of education and in under- standing the objectives and techniques of teaching. They learn that enthusiasm is the basic essential for a good teacher. Dr. Kenneth Kuehner reminds students that children need a firm hand as well as love.
