UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN • FALL 2002 IN THIS ISSUE

Energy, progress, positive change. In all of its definitions, the word movement describes the dynamic state of kinesiology today. Movement encompasses the scientific study of human motion, the importance of activity on growth and development, the role of sport in society, the exploration of new directions, and emerging trends. brings you research findings and thoughtful insights on developments in kinesiology, as well as continuing updates on faculty, students, and your fellow alumni.

Clear signs that fall is upon us are evident all around. The temperatures in Ann Arbor are cool and pleasant, campus is alive with people and activities, and students and cars vie once again for the right of way on State Street. There can be no doubt that a new academic year is well under way! Whether we are at the start of an academic year or mid-year, one thing we can count on at Michigan is—things change. Change is inevitable and even necessary for an academic setting like ours to remain viable and vibrant. For example, the faculty constantly monitors our curricula and initiates revisions to reflect changing societal needs and in response to growth in the disciplinary knowledge base. Faculty in our Sport Management and Communication (SMC) program recently determined that substantive curricular changes were needed. They are moving this major toward a second-level admission with an increase in the pre- and post-requisite courses in order to strengthen the sport business core of this undergraduate degree. The Athletic Training program faculty also instituted practicum and course-related changes as part of our review for certification of our curriculum by the Commission on Accreditation of Allied Health Education Programs (see story on page 2). Our faculty ranks are changing too! Dr. Richard Luker (see page 19) joined us in September, part-time, as an Adjunct Associate Professor of SMC. Dr. Kathy Babiak will join us in January as an Assistant Professor in the SMC program. Watch for an article about her in the next issue of Movement. Many new students arrived on campus this fall too, causing another change, the sort that we thrive on. We have approximately 750 undergraduates and 30 full-time graduate students this year. These numbers represent stable enrollment at the undergraduate level compared to last year and a strong increase in the number of full-time, fully-funded doctoral students. Thanks to the efforts of faculty and alumni the sources of funding for graduate students are growing steadily via federal research, training grants, and endowments. All in all, I believe these examples validate the old adage, change is good! I hope you’ll be able to join us very soon to talk with faculty, students, and me about these changes, first hand. Our Alumni Reunion on October 25th will present more opportunities than ever to socialize with fellow alums, meet faculty and staff members, and catch up on current events in Kinesiology. We’ve organized an open house and tour of the Kinesiology building from 3:30-5:30 p.m. the same day. Current students will be on hand to “meet and greet” you throughout the building, and faculty will be talking about our programs and research activities. In this issue of Movement we celebrate the alumni and friends who made monetary gifts to Kinesiology between July 1, 2001 and June 30, 2002. Thank you for these most valuable contributions. Such gifts make a significant difference in the teaching, research, and service programs in the Division. They allow us to do many things that we would otherwise be unable to do or could not do as well. Students and faculty really notice the impact your support provides. On behalf of the students, faculty, and staff of Kinesiology, I wish you good health and much happiness. Enjoy Movement!

Best wishes,

Beverly D. Ulrich Professor and Dean

Lindeman and Harry McLaughlin met with them to begin Dr. Paul Borsa in the classroom moving athletic training toward a degree program. “Students could take one of two tracks—one, an internship program combined with coursework, followed by an exam; or two, an athletic training program curriculum, followed by an exam for certification,” said Lindeman. When the Department of Athletics decided to pursue national accreditation for the program, it needed to find an academic home base. It seemed a per- fect fit for the Division of Kinesiology. In 1996, athletic training became the fourth major in Kinesiology. “Pat Van Volkinburg took the program from there,” said Lindeman, who retired in 2000.

ATHLETIC TRAINING TODAY The current education program is a col- laborative effort between the Division of Kinesiology and the Department of Athletics. The program offers a well- rounded combination of academic course work and clinical experiences that educate students in the prevention, treatment, and rehabilitation of sport- related injuries and illnesses for athletes and other physically active populations.
