The Kinesiology Student Government (KSG) is an organization that reaches out -- to current Kinesiology students, to potential Kinesiology students, and to the community.
This year KSG sponsored several activities, including a student panel discussion on Martin Luther King Day, which discussed racial bias from several cultural perspectives. They sponsored the Apparel Program and formed the Ambassador Program, which reaches out to prospective Kinesiology students to answer questions and address issues from a student perspective. They helped a needy family during the holidays, and staffed a booth at the Kid’s Fair for Health Awareness. “All of the students involved in Student Government are extremely committed and are continually working to enhance the Division of Kinesiology,” said Emily Herman, KSG President.
All Kinesiology students are welcome to attend the Kinesiology Student Government meetings. Contact KSG at kinesgov03@umich.edu for more info.

Kerry Winkelseth, mentor for the Physical Education Club, said that she is proud of the club members because they serve as valuable role models to younger students with their participation in two programs. They volunteer for an after-school program where they lead and teach a variety of physical education activities. U-Go-Girls is a program that meets on Sunday afternoons and introduces girls to a variety of sports hoping to get them started and excited about future participation opportunities. “These activities relate to the PE profession, and the students work the volunteer activities into their busy schedules, giving up their free time to work in the community,” said Kerry.
