Outward Bound
Paddleboard for credit? Sign me up! This fall, the Physical Education and Athletics Department rolled out a new course, PEC150: Outdoor Challenge, in which students canoe, hike, cycle and, yes, paddle, their way through the term. The experiential curriculum — which takes advantage of Exeter’s nearby natural wonders including the Academy Woodlands and the Squamscott River — also teaches camping skills, outdoor survival and, of course, how to have good old-fashioned fun. “Students come to class with all the burdens of the day and leave rejuvenated,” says Physical Education and Athletics Instructor Kerry McBrearty. “It’s amazing what nature can do.”
