Yes, D (Greensleeves, for the regs), took skiing. She progressed fairly well, it was not cheap, but not terribly expensive. Classes were divided by ability at the beginning of each class or two, so if you progressed faster or slower, than you initial group, you were grouped appropriately at the next class. Abilities varied widely, but I'm not sure how it would be for the very experienced skier.

And it was a lot of fun telling my friends from home "sorry, can't talk right now, I have to go to ski school" on Tuesdays! A great break in the week.

Skiing is more fun than I would have expected, though the skiway is small (only a few trails open at any one time).

Lol, I did the same with snowboarding. Dartmouth is awesome!

do you get grades in pe classes or are they just pass/fail?

sybbie719 · 03-13-2006, 04:03 PM

You do not get gradesin P.E> where they show up on your transcript and calculated into your over all gpa (if that is what you are asking).

However, you must have your 3 p.e's completed by the end of sophmore summer and you must pass the swim test in order to graduate (some students just knock out the swimming when they com up for their DOC trips)
