    3.
    To increase personal competence in physical education activities.

    students)
    I just received word yesterday that four students have permission
    from Steve Smith to take Educ 459. These students are not ELPE
    students. Almost all the registration forms have now been
    processed, so they will need to be added once they discover they
    haven't been put into the course.
    The Students are:
    Brian Stepfani
    Dave McKay
    Andrew Kingscott (I've added this one.)
