I took golf. I can't for the life of me remember my other 1 credit phys ed class.

Liberal Arts education, I'm guessing. We took a bit of EVERYTHING.

My ex hubby took canoeing (did I spell that right ??) for college credit.

The "final" was a four day trip to the Flambeau River in upper Wisconsin. It was way fun.

Bloody hell, no wonder college costs so damn much here. No phys ed requirement in UK. I had to pay to play badminton after hours. ...and I don't even know where the nearest rink was!

Well, most liberal arts colleges are private colleges, so students do pay, in the form of crazy tuition.

You don't have a phys-ed reqt in most public institutions, that I know of, though you can take phys-ed classes as electives. For my college, those two less credit hours would have meant no piece of paper with my name on it after 4 years.

Then you should probably do a little less of whatever it is that you're doing......

The last time I ice skated, it was on a pond...and I ended up with a concussion. Probably had the wrong skates.

Are the teethy things on the front of the blade different? Ponds can be some rough skatin'.

No, I just don't want to trash my good blades on the rough ice. I need skates I don't pay so much money for!
