finely focused on the "Age Wave."
'il r iIre' 11. nJt n with Florida riding the crest of the
wave. The state population of those 65 years and older,
estimated now at about one in five Floridians, will double by the
year 2020 with more of the elderly surviving into their 10th
and llth decade. One of the primary challenges of the Univer-
sity is to significantly contribute to a health s-.rits ing life for
this expanding elderly population. And within this broad task,
the role of the College of Health and Human Performance is to
help senior citizens maintain the highest level of physical and
social vigor and to assist them in understanding and coping
with health-related concerns. Here are some examples of the
ways we will do this:
TEACHING: Our teaching will center more on issues and
knowledge about the aging process. We are adding programs
in clinical exercise physiology that prepare students to work in


i...ud i.llii.kc iind transplant rehabilitation programs. We are
nowi pie.', iii'i,g co'irses in health communications so that our
g.,llidi it-' ca.in I-,lter inform the public about aging issues,
including the, u.- and abuse of drugs, diet and exercise fraud,
s lrre mana cement, and utilizing health care services. We are
tep.indin, :o't onl rings in therapeutic recreation and tourism
'c. that our graduates can aid the elderly in the healthful use of
leiturt nmrt I '.o common threads are being woven through
Sinrtullv all our programs: 1) bridging the gap between
scieitilic knot, ledge and public understanding of aging, and
1 pro'mol ing and facilitating behavior changes so that we all
g \. g I1.
RESEARCH: Our research will increasingly address such age
rel. tedl qtLieCthit as: How does regular exercise protect the
liLc rt g. .in-t. da.iii ge during a heart attack? Why is skeletal
iii lc aijand boioe mass lost with age and disuse, and how can
e-'erc.- -li... \ Ih-. process? I low do dietary supplements, fad
dl -i, r'i ll/ed exercise equipment, and other "fountain of
-...uth p riJdu c affect health and aging? What is the bestway
rin ui, rtli. Intlrnei and related technology as reliable health
ir-.,iurni--:? I o.w can Florida improve ecotourism and other
nnc\ recreancrnal ,opportunities to better meet the leisure needs
i'or Dl.rida aging p.pul iti.,'r ian visitors?
SLr\'ILt: A- p.ir t of our service mission, we are develop-
lC: spei.d'l pro'ra.ms for seniors who are serious about good
health I ine e. iniple is GatorLfi. This is a new one week
Lmck-ih-.-c.ipu:- program for UF Aluini and Friends, 50-
i ar --ol .in 1]J IbthL e. It provides diet and fitness assess
11nei't 1 1 ...ill 11 Irkshops, and individually-paced physical
activities. The emphasis is on learning by doing and having
fun in the process. We are increasing the number of GatorLife
sessions, and are planning similar activities that will be
offered throughout the year.
Since its beginning in 1946, the College of Health and
Human Performance has refined and expanded its academic
mission in response to the needs of society. This has been
accomplished with great success. Our programs in Exercise
and Sport Sciences, Health Science Education, Recreation,
Parks and Tourism, and Recreational Sports are models for
others to follow. And we look forward to further extending
our scope, particularly as a major player in addressing what
will be one of the most significant social and economic
problems of the new millennium maintaining the health
and vitality of graying Americans.

F or a C., ilree with only three departments the variety in research
interests by the faculty is quite unique. As the College has grown and
-h .li ,. iplic-s: of the College have continued to increase in breadth and
depth of knowledge, the research interests have continued to expand. In
this issue of Performance we provide examples of our continued involve-
ment with the public schools, insights into a common ailment, and take a
cross-cultural look at women traveling solo.

The Florida School Violence Policies and
Programs Study
Researchers: Robert Weiler, Steve DonIan, & Lisa Pealer
This study assessed characteristics of violence prevention, violence
control policies, and violence education programs in Florida schools. A
questionnaire designed to obtain information about violence policies and
education programs was mailed to all 67 school districts in Florida
during spring 1996. Representatives from each school district were
selected to complete the queIi-tim.iire-- based on their responsibilities
for violence prevention activities in their district. Fifty-five school
districts returned completed questionnaires, yielding an 82% response
rate. .\1ion i.th.. responding dlitria:t. only 31% had a pcoli.:. that
addressed violence prevention education, but nearly half had allocated
funds for violence prevention education. Statewide, only 11% of the
districts require and 65% recommend violence prevention education.


Thirty percent of school districts reported having a written curriculum,
guidelines, or a framework for violence prevention education. During
the past two years, 91 %/ of Florida school districts offered violence
prevention education in-service training for their teachers and had a
written policy on student :ibloiig. Nearly all school districts had a
written policy on student weapon possession and use. In addition, 80%
of districts implement a number of distinctive security measures such as
closed campuses, fences, security guards, and locker checks. The survey
data suggest that public school districts in Florida have responded to
student and school violence with prevention policies and programs to a
greater extent than have school districts nationwide. However, these
districts have focused more attention on environmental protection (i.e.,
security) strategies than educational strategies. Recommendations are
that Florida should establish a surveillance system to monitor violent
behavior and victimization patterns among school children and youth
and violence prevention education strategies should be offered as part of
a comprehensive school health program.

Electromyographic Patterns of Individuals
Suffering From Lateral Tennis Elbow
Researchers: t. f Bauer & Robert Murray

Tennis elbow is known as the most common of the upper body
injuries and can affect carpenters, dental technicians, and computer
operators as well as tennis players. This study was conducted to
determine if simple surface electromyography (EMG) analysis of
muscles associated with lateral tennis elbow could be used to assist in
accurately diagnosing tennis elbow and if tennis elbow suffers have
developed possible detrimental muscle activation patterns in
response to the injury. Muscle activation patterns of a tennis elbow
group were evaluated to determine if they were different from an
aged-matched healthy control group and if noted variations might be
interpreted as worsening or improving the injury. Sixteen male
subjects were tested under simulated tennis playing conditions. EMG
response data of muscle activities of the forearm extensors, forearm
flexors, and the triceps were recorded for each subject during a single
test session using all combinations of three different velocities on
three different tennis racket head impact locations. Results indicated
significant differences between the healthy group and injured (tennis
elbow) groups for the response variables associated with forearm
extensor muscle activation. During simulated play, the injured group
had an earlier, longer, and greater activation of forearm extensors

.r




























than the healthy group. Such changes may be considered detrimental
to the healing process for tennis elbow. The increased muscle activation
strategy used by the tennis elbow 'tltteri r, in this study was an attempt
to reduce the painful effects of the forced wrist flexion associated with
hitting a backhand volley. These results support the use of surface EMC to
measure differences in muscle activation strategies to diagnose tennis
elbow. Further the results suggest that instead of resting the affected
region (which is usually prescribed by most health care providers) tennis
elbow suffers are experiencing changed muscle activation patterns that are
worsening their condition when engaging in sports and other activities.


Traveling Solo: A Cross-Cultural Study of British

and American Women Aged 30-50 years
Researchers: Heather Gibson & Fiona Jordan

the purpose of this study was to in,. .rie,.ir. the experiences of solo
women pleasure- i, l, 1 ..i,;.-l between 30 and 55 years. The study
focused on travel choices, meanings of travel, constraints and barriers, and
the similarities and differences experienced by women in the UK and the
USA. In-depth interviews were conducted with 13 British and American
women aged between 30 and 55 years. The interviews revealed that the
women engage in a range of activities on their trips from the conventional
beach and .iglht,- in., holidays, to educational and adventure holidays.
Issues identified in previous studies of women's leisure, such as feelings of
vulnerability, the social acceptability of certain activities for women, and
fear of crime were also mentioned by the women in this study as causing
them some concern while traveling. However, despite some hassles, the
women reported nothing compared to the dangers that the media warns
for women. In fact, all the women in the study use various strategies to
keep themselves safe including choice of accommodation, not venturing
out into unknown parts of town at night, and not visiting remote locations
by themselves. The US women in the study tended to be a bit more
adventurous than their British counterparts. Among the US women
interviewed are some women who have engaged in budget-style back-
packer travel all over the world. In addition, the US women in this study
do not tend to use travel agents. They read travel guides, and contact
airlines .J rlthl they are savvy, experienced travelers on the whole. Travel
is also extremely important to these women. Some are employed full-time
(some at the University) and others work for a few months then take off on
their travels again.


. -, ,1! .....












































M any of you have seen significant
changes in the College of I health
and Human Performance. This is
especially true if you graduated more
than ten years ago. The College is
poised to build upon past success by
ushering in the new millennium with
use of the World Wide Web. The college
is forging ahead with extensive plans for
uing the Internet for instruction,
research, and administration. There are
an estimated t'l nilliukn Anm.-r',al using
the World Wide Web. It appears that
many of them are trying to find out
information about your Alma Mater as
the College experiences more than
25,000 hits in a single day.

College students, faculty and staff use
the Internet like most businesses for e-
mail. The number of telephone calls has
decreased while the number of e-mail
messages from all over the world has
increased. College administrators
realize that the potential of the Internet
goes beyond e-mail and the ,.pp'or tuni\.
to electronically share someone's
calendar to schedule a meeting. Web
pages have been developed to provide
students with inii ii n.ilirl, r .-i.rJ iny
requirements for admission, specializa-
tion, major, and internships. Yes, you
can even apply to the University of


Florida on-line. In fact,
the College is among
the leaders at the
University for elec-
tronic applications
resulting in substantial
savings in printing and
postage costs.

Many faculty members
have placed information
rt.l ,ird.l g thl.ir courses
on the Web. Students
may obtain the course
outline, calendar,
handouts, assignments,
study guides, and even
their latest grade from a
faculty member's course
web page. This process
not only saves a few
trees by eliminating
voluminous paper
handouts, but it also
saves a tremendous amount of faculty
and staff time. Perhaps most impor-
t.anl\, it provides the student with the
information when they want it, even if it
is two o'clock in the morning. Today's
student would much rather use an
electronic search engine to locate the
information and download the necessary
form or even fill it out on-line in the
comfort of their apartment than stand in
line. The end result is that the student's
needs are met and the faculty member
has additional time to spend with
students to clarify a concept that is
causing them difficulty.

The web has impacted all aspects of the
college experience, even the library.
Students are now able to search library
resources by use of the web. Faculty
members are requiring students to
maintain articles found on the web that
arevp., i&.- t, their course on disk.
Thus, the student is taught how to
search the web and to always have a
disk handy to save interesting articles
for later review.

The internship experience has also been
enhanced with use of the Internet.
Students are notified of all of the
necessary information required for the
internship. Communication between
faculty members and students who are


off campus at intern sites is facilitated
with use of e-mail. Intern supervisors
who have Internet capability use an on-
line intern assessment instrument to
provide comments to the College intern
supervisor.

Graduate education and research have
also been enhanced with use of the web.
Potential students from all over the
world, who have heard about our
programs, need only click for additional
information. They not only can find out
about the various program offerings,
they can obtain information about
scholarships, graduate assistantships,
and other financial aid opportunities. In
addition, they can read about current
research projects or see actual photos of
lab work in progress.

The College has not lost sight of the
Web's value in pr.' tJd iL,'i information
about its many successful programs, or
as some might say "advertising." The
new joint degree programs, MBA/MESS,
Juris Doctor/MESS, MPH, have web
pages that promote these combined
programs with the College of Business,
College of Law and C.1 llLe- of Medicine,
respectively. Each Center in the College
has a web page that has facilitated
external grant funding. All new vacant
.fau.jit, position ,.nnounceml'rt., are also
posted on the Web in an attempt to find
the best possible faculty members.

The Division of Recreational Sports posts
facility hours and intramural schedules
on the Web. By having the intramural
policies, rules, and captains' guide on
line, the students are better served and
departmental resources saved.

I he College does not pretend to have the
ability to foresee all of the capabilities of
the Internet. However, we do feel that
the ground work and infrastructure have
been laid to allow for future evolution of
the Internet that will facilitate its use for
educational purposes by our students,
faculty, staff and alumni. Industry
experts estimate the Web doubles in size
every eight months. So check us out
now and keep posted for new informa-
tion to be added.

DONNA L.
PASTORE
graduated
from the
University of
Florida with a
BS degree in
Physical
Education in
1981 and a
Master's
degree in
Athletic
Administra-
tion two years
later. She subsequently earned her doctoral
degree in Athletic Administration from the
University of Southern California in 1988.

Pastore took advantage of opportunities
provided to her by the many student organiza-
tions on campus to develop leadership skills.
She was president of the h o'-n a' lieali h
physical education and recreation fraternity


Delta Psi Kappa, a member of the Phi Kappa Phi
Honor Society, and also worked in the intramu-
ral sports department. "Because of those
experiences I have now become involved in
leadership positions within professional
associations," says Pastore. She served as
president of the National Association for Girls
and Women in Sport in 1997-98.

Aside from her academic achievements at UF,
Pastore also achieved success on the athletic
field. She attended UT on an athletic scholar-
ship as a standout player on the varsity softball
team during the years 1977-80. Those were the
days of slow-pitch women's softball.

Sport Management professor Dr. Ruth Alexander
remembers Pastore fondly. "I remember that
Donna was a sensational hitter and that she led
her team with triples her first year with eight.
She was also awarded the Sportsmanship Award
two years in a row," says Alexander. "As a
student, she was excellent in her studies of Sport
Management. We are very proud of her as an
athlete as well as a product of Ihil' clklct."


Pastore has been the recipient of numerous
recognition awards including the College of
I health and I luman Performance's Outstanding
Alumni award in April of 1997. Later that year
she became one of 47 women selected out of
85,000 women alumni for the Alumnae of
Outstanding Achievement award, as p.irt of the
50th anniversary of coeducation at UF.

Currently, Pastore is in her ninth year as an

A though the College
of Health and Hmunanc
Performance has a number
of talented and committed
ta, uir m,-ml-.ei,. I not
every day that the
University gives recogni-
tion to excellence in the
classroom. In 1999, one of
only two University wide
"teacher of the Year" awards went to a professor in our
college, Dr. R. Morgan Pigg, Professor in Health Science
Education. Dr. Pi;g was first recognized as Teacher of the
Year for the College of Health and Human Performance.
He then went on to receive the university-wide honor.
Pigg teaches both undergraduate and graduate studies
and has been at UF for 13 years.

After being honored at the President's house and receiving
a traditional plaque and bonus check, Pigg was a bit
overwhelmed. "It's a humbling experience for a lot of
reasons, mostly because I know how many highly effective
teachers we have here. They all want their students to do
well and they take teaching very seriously," he said.

Pigg's professional studies have always revolved around
the growth and development of children and adolescents
and how they learn. This experience has obviously helped
him achieve success in his own classroom.

I le feels that a certain level of emotional connection must be
made with students. "If kids can't relax and feel comfort-
able it will retard the ability for them to learn, and will set
barriers for them during the semester," said Pigg.


It is true that nobody knows a professor better then the
students and that is where Pigg focuses his attention. "I get
my cl. t1i;.lif;ii ioi by Il.i',iil, 0 i-c- young people succeed at
what they're trying to do, so it's a real vote of confidence
from your students to get an award like this. It just shows
that student evaluations do make a big difference."

Sitting in his office at a desk surrounded by :a mit\ I r.:cures
and keepsakes, it is no surprise that much of I igg's
professional inspiration has spilled over from his home
life. "There is no substitute for having your own children
and being able to understand their development and the
barriers they have in today's world," he said.

Pigg has been married to wife Nancy for 28 years and has
two children. He is thankful for the opportunity to be able
to raise both aboy and a girl. Kelly, 18, is a freshman here
at UF and 14-year old Casey is a freshman at Gainesville
High School.

The years of personal experience with his children have
provided I';ig %, iti' 1 wealth of knowledge and ideas for
his research. He has also embraced the opportunity to
turn his personal stories into what he calls teachable
moments. "I like to tell family stories in class because it
helps bridge the gap between our different generations. I
think I'm just a regular guy, even kind of boring in some
ways, but sharing elements of my life are novel for kids in
this generation," he said.

A well deserved recognition to an outstanding teacher and
person. Congratulations Morgan!

Distinguished Alumni



n 1997 the CI-ll. g- began formal recognition
of alumni who have distinguished themselves
through their professional endeavors or service
to the public. These individuals are selected by a
committee of current faculty and alumni from

continued her studies at the University of
Southern Mississippi earning a Master of
Science in Parks and Recreation
Administration in 1978. She climbed
the ladder of success beginning with

route to becoming the Executive


Director of the Maryland Recreation and Park
Association. From there, she became Director of
Professional Services for the National Recreation
and Parks Association a position she currently
holds. Parks has received a number of awards
for her extensive service and leadership to her
profession; and is credited with 49 publications.
Parks cites her most significant accomplishment
is her effort in getting local tax levies and bond
issues passed for spending on parks and
recreation services. Michelle credits Dr. Linda
Thornton and Dr. Paul Vames for much of what
she has accomplished.

Bill Sims is a 1968 graduate of the Department
of Recreation, Parks and Tourism and is

ment and President of Ogden Entertainment

Sims began his illustrious career in tourism in
1971 as director of operations at Cypress
Gardens. He was the youngest officer in the
company's history just three years after


graduating from college. He was appointed by
Governor Lawton Chiles as a charter member of
the 17 member group charged with advising
Florida's Division of Tourism. His effective
leadership helped support bladmiark irg'-l.it.r:
which created the Florida Tourism Industry
Marketing Corporation in 1996, the nation's first
public/private partnership in tourism market-
ing and promotion. He serves on many boards
both domestically and internationally and in
2001 will assume the position as Chairman of
the International Association of Amusement
Parks and Attractions.
