Introduction
To be liberally educated individuals should be knowledgeable about proper nutrition, the benefits of activity and their bodies. The physical education program provides the student with an opportunity to maintain a physically healthy existence as well as a vigorous intellectual one.

The instructional programs are designed with three major objectives: (1) to educate individuals for careers directly related to physical education; (2) to provide cognate courses, for students interested in the various health fields; and (3) to provide students with the opportunity to understand and develop their own physical and athletic abilities with the goal of achieving healthier, more active lives.

The department is located in the Dow Recreation and Wellness Center located on Alumni Field. The Dow Center includes three multi-purpose courts surrounded by a 1/9-mile track, two racquetball courts, four indoor tennis courts (in the adjacent Ungrodt Tennis Center), a human performance lab, training room, weight room, classroom, locker rooms and offices. This facility provides indoor space for recreation, intramurals and classes, and a practice area for outdoor sports during inclement weather. The Dean Aquatic Center includes a T-shaped pool, 25 yards by 25 meters, and a diving well. Outdoor field space includes Sprankle-Sprandel Stadium, the site of the varsity football field and track; varsity soccer fields; Dempsey Softball Field and Joranko Baseball Field; tennis courts; and multiple intramural fields for field sports and softball. The canoe house provides canoes and kayaks for use on the Kalamazoo River adjacent to Alumni Field. Additional tennis courts are located behind the Wesley living complex.

Career Opportunities
A teaching major in physical education prepares the student for teaching and/or coaching in the public or private schools at the elementary, secondary or K-12 level. The exercise science major has been developed to prepare students for graduate school in exercise science (exercise physiology, biomechanics, motor development, sports medicine). The major in athletic training will prepare students for a career in this field. Once the major has been accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Allied Health Education Programs, students will be able to take the NATA Board of Certification examination. Physical education majors may gain practical experience working as assistant coaches, as a human performance lab assistant, in city recreation programs, intramurals, nursing homes, hospitals, etc. Individuals who desire to pursue careers outside of the educational realm will find opportunities: health and fitness centers, hospitals, corporate and private sport clubs and sport facility management.

Intramural and Club Sports
Extracurricular sports competition is available in an extensive intramural program. This program encompasses all seasons of the year and virtually every sport, offering more than 30 activities. Most activities are available on a co-ed, male, and/or female basis. Recreational swimming is available daily, canoeing is available in the spring and fall, and court time for rec sports is available.

Intercollegiate Athletics
The College maintains an active varsity athletic program and is a member of the Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association, the oldest conference in the nation. Games are scheduled with MIAA colleges, GLCA colleges, and non-conference colleges and universities. The coaching staff includes:

Requirements for Major in Athletic Training

Albion College's Athletic Training Education Program has received Commission on Accreditation of Allied Health Education Programs (CAAHEP) accreditation from the Joint Review Committee for Athletic Training. As graduates of a CAAHEP-accredited education program, our students can sit for the National Athletic Trainers' Association Board of Certification examination.

Students must apply for admission to the athletic training major and will be subject to the requirements listed below. Applications and all other required forms may be obtained from the athletic training program director or by downloading them from the Athletic Training Education Program Web site at www.albion.edu/athletic_training/ .

Completed application packets are due December 1 for admission beginning the subsequent semester. The athletic training program can be completed in a minimum of five semesters although this minimum is not encouraged. Students may participate on one athletic team while completing the athletic training major, but those students may be expected to complete some program requirements during the summer, in an extra fall semester or during their athletic season if appropriate progress is not attained.

• The number of students in the athletic training major is limited based on national accreditation standards. These standards consider the College's athletic training facilities, available clinical assignments and number of approved clinical instructors. Conditional admission to the athletic training major is, therefore, competitive based on an objective point system and other criteria. The objective point system is developed from the following criteria: (1) three letters of reference, (2) an application form, (3) high school grade point average, (4) college grade point average, (5) observation time in the Albion College athletic training environs, (6) an interview with the athletic training staff, and (7) taping skills. Students must score 80 percent or better on the objective point system. The top students will then be ranked and admitted based on available space. As of spring 2004, it was determined that 25 students can be admitted to the athletic training major.
       Conditional admission students must also: (1) pass Physical Education 213 with a minimum grade of 2.7, (2) have no course work below 2.0, (3) pass a pre-participation physical examination, (4) submit a copy of their health insurance information, (5) satisfy the technical standards, (6) have an up-to-date hepatitis B vaccination or signed waiver, and (7) have an up-to-date tuberculosis screening. The conditional admission status is lifted after the student passes Physical Education 233 with a minimum grade of 2.7.
• To maintain active status in the Athletic Training Education Program, students must: (1) achieve a minimum cumulative grade point average of 2.7 in Physical Education 213, 233, 243, 253, 293, 294, 344, 353, 393, 394, 453 with no course work below a 2.0; (2) achieve a minimum cumulative grade point average of 2.0 in Physical Education 212, 217, 289, 303, 288 with no course work below 2.0; (3) gain certification in CPR and first aid before the beginning of the junior year; (4) pass a yearly pre-participation physical examination; (5) satisfy the technical standards on a yearly basis; (6) have up-to-date hepatitis B and tuberculosis vaccinations or a signed waiver; (7) have up-to-date health insurance.
• Students in the athletic training major must complete eleven and one-half units in physical education, including the following: 203, 210, 212, 213, 217, 233, 243, 253, 288 (Nutrition), 293, 294, 303, 344, 353, 393, 394, 453.
• All courses for the major must be taken for a numerical grade.
• The following cognate is required: Psychology 101.
• Athletic training students must meet a 900-hour clinical requirement over the course of a minimum of five semesters. While students majoring in athletic training may play one sport, these individuals must be aware that attaining the 900-hour clinical requirement is made more difficult because of time spent playing their sport.
