Instructional Activities in Sport and Recreation
Non-Degree Program
Catalina Franco-Cicero, Coordinator

Instructional Activities in Sport and RecreationThe courses in this program focus on general fitness, lifetime sport, and recreational opportunities. Offering diversity in choice, the program provides instructional fitness and recreational experiences available to the entire University community. Courses are designed to promote physical and mental well-being through the development of a lifestyle that includes physical activity. The variety of activities and skill levels affords each student a choice to suit individual needs and desires. The student has the opportunity to develop competency in selected activities in order to maintain fitness for living, to provide a foundation for active use of leisure time, and to prepare for life-long recreational involvement.

All ISR courses may be repeated for credit in order to provide opportunity to improve upon skill, endurance, strength, and flexibility. ISR courses are two (2) semester hours of credit, unless otherwise stated, and are CR/NC option only; no letter grade is earned. Activities may carry a special course fee. All courses require a signed waiver of liability and medical history questionnaire/participation agreement. Courses involving strenuous physical activity may also require additional participation/liability releases.
