It focuses on the history of the women's college at Brenau University in Georgia to explore ways in which the school's focus on the general health of female students evolved from walking activities and light exercise to participation in sports such as basketball, volleyball, and swimming. It also focuses on the dress code for women participating in physical education at Brenau, describes how the emphasis on college sports differed for men and women during this time period, and presents comments from historian Barbara Miller Solomon. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: N holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
