General Education Requirement - PE 198 - Lifetime Wellness
All students are required to complete PE 198 Lifetime Wellness (2 cr) as part of their general education requirement. The position of the Department of HPEES is that the knowledge, skills, experiences and attitudes gained through the Lifetime Wellness course are essential to individuals of all ages, conditions, and backgrounds. The benefits to be obtained are in no way diminished by the age, condition, ability level or previous activity/academic history of the student. Therefore, these factors should not exempt a student from this requirement.
(The exception to this policy is those Washburn students who completed an associate degree under a catalog prior to 1995 (when the PE 198 Lifetime Wellness requirement was initiated) which satisfied the previous PE requirement (as part of their associate degree program), and are therefore granted a waiver of the PE 198 requirement.)
While the Department encourages the participation of all individuals in physical activity, regardless of physical condition, it wishes to remain sensitive to the individual needs and limitations of students at Washburn. Students with disabilities should enroll in a regular section of Lifetime Wellness and will have necessary adaptations made in that particular activity.

Transfer Policy
Students may transfer similar well- ness courses to Washburn to fulfill the Lifetime Wellness requirement. In order to meet this requirement, students must have completed college level wellness lecture topics that parallel PE 198 Lifetime Wellness, as well as an appropriate activity component.
(Transfer students who completed associate degrees prior to 1995, and who completed at least two hours of physical education as part of their associate degree pro- gram, are also granted waiver of the PE 198 requirement.)

Credit by Examination
To qualify for credit by examination, students would have to demonstrate completion of both of the following:
1) A course or a combination of courses that address health/wellness lecture topics included in the PE 198 Lifetime Wellness course (but which are not sufficient to receive transfer credit).
2) A minimum of a one-credit hour activity course.
