Every university program has different students with different goals and potentialities. We need to develop a common core of knowledge that binds our field together, then have each branch add the focus on its specialized knowledge, without losing sight of the commonalities that bind us together. We should re-examine Franklin Henry’s “discipline of physical education” and accept that there are multiple levels of necessary knowledge, depending upon where that knowledge is to be applied.
