As part of the Lifetime Wellness requirement, students are required to participate in physical activity. It is strongly suggested that students visit a medical professional and obtain a physical prior to the beginning the class.
If a student has not had a physical within 14 months of the start of class, they may be required to obtain a physical or get physician approval prior participating in the class. This decision will be based upon information students provide to their instructor through a Physical Activity Readiness Questionnaire.
If a physical or physician approval is required, students are expected to complete that as soon as possible so they can engage in the course. Failure to obtain necessary approval after being instructed to do so could result in being dropped from WPAL 101.
Any restrictions placed on participation in physical activity by a physician will not adversely affect student grade.
