Department of Physical Education
About the Department
At Washington College, we care about our students' lives, including their physical fitness and activity. Though there is no major or requirement for physical education, we encourage students to take advantage of our facilities and for-credit classes. We offer classes in dance, martial arts, and recreational sports as well as coaching, nutrition, and sports history.
You can also take courses for certification in scuba, lifeguarding, first aid, and CPR. With our facilities—the Johnson Fitness Center, Cain Gymnasium, Casey Swim Center, and boathouse and pavilion on the Chester River—and numerous recreational programs, club sports, and varsity athletics, Washington College students can enjoy active, healthy college lives.
