Currently this course is graded on a letter basis. It is 

recommended that the course be graded instead on a pass/ 

withdrawal basis. 

Rationale: The course is essentially a professional course in which 

students are trained as exercise managers and leaders. 

The course requires students to engage actively in leading 

exercise programs and assessment of this component in terms 

other than satisfactory/unsatisfactory 

performance is 

difficult.
