Miscellaneous records of the Dept. of Physical Education,
Recreation and Health Education (PERHE) and its predecessor from 1956 to 1980. Most of the
records date from the 1970s and appear to have been created or compiled by the department's
chairperson. Included within the collection are records created by Chairmen Herman Kluge and
Ward K. Gates. One file contains correspondence of the department's chairperson documenting
the changes in staffing, space needs, and the curriculum.
The largest part of the
collection is the masters degree program files (1965-1979) which contain proposals and
materials documenting the development of a Master of Science in physical education/human
kinetics. The collection also contains policies regarding the physical education program,
requirements, and reports of the program for teachers. Also included are proposals for
offering a major in women's physical education and a major in men's physical
education.
Several files in the collection document the planning and administration
of the J. Martin Klotsche Center, the physical education building completed in 1977. The
files contain correspondence with Michael J. Stolee, dean of the School of Education,
regarding the administration and use of the facility. Also included are miscellaneous
brochures and an annual report (1977-1978) of the center.
Several files relate to
the department's 1976 name change from Physical Education to Physical Education, Recreation
and Health Education, as well as materials relating to the department's transfer to the
School of Allied Health Professions in 1979.
