History
A shared experience - by students, for students
The School of Health and Human Performance at ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø offers two programs focusing on recreation and leisure studies: Therapeutic Recreation and Recreation Management. First-year students in both programs come together just before classes start to participate in Recreation Orientation.
By taking part in Recreation Orientation, new students get to know one another and find a shared learning community. In past years, the orientation was organized by faculty and alumni, but since 2003, it has been organized by students, for students, with upper-year students planning the activities for new students.

Therapeutic Recreation is a four-year undergraduate program providing students with the theoretical and practical skills to work in a variety of settings as a Certified Therapeutic Recreation Specialist. Find out more about the Therapeutic Recreation program.
