From what I understand though, they are really easy to fit in and a fairly good time as well.

Really, PE at Cornell can be a lot of fun. They are nothing like what many experienced in high school. There are a lot of fun classes like bowling, badminton, tree climbing, etc.

The dancing classes are pretty awesome, but for some of them you are required to sign up with a dance partner.
