campus & city
P.E. course to challenge
By LAURA HERTENBERGER
Battalion Reporter
The physical education depart
ment will be offering courses next
semester which will challenge the
most physically fit athlete at Texas
A&M University.
The Outdoor Education Institute
of the department of health and phy
sical education of Texas A&M offers
alternatives to conventional P.E.
courses. Students who sign up for
activities such as backpacking, orien
teering and survival will have a
chance to work out in the woods in
stead of the gym.
Venture Dynamics, a new course
to be offered during the coming
semester, will combine group-
oriented activities and initiatives in
teaching communication and
cooperation.
Most classes will be held off the
main campus at the outdoor educa
tion institute’s ropes course, located
behind the equestrian center off FM
2818. Enrollment will be limited to
TWO-RIFFIC!

two classes of 24 students each.
The course will deal with problem
solving such as how to get your group
over a 14-foot wall or how to escape
from a prisoner of war camp using a
pole vaulting pole. The ropes course
fidget ladder and low tension
traverse will be used and students
will even go out to the fireman’s
training center to do some rapelling.
Camille Bunting, who will teach
the one-hour class, describes it as a
very physically oriented course de
signed for students who are in
terested in working with youth
groups in a leadership role.
The course in part comes from the
“new games” movement in physical
education which emphasizes having
fun, getting exercise and learning
cooperation with other people with
out the competitive element of many
conventional activities. It also works
on the principle that people need
adventure and risk in their lives to
develop self-confidence and self-
image, she said.
