Taking Sailing Lessons!

Paulina's d-plan, fall on campus.

In this class we pondered essential questions centered around human existence. To tackle "What Matters" we took a quest throughout time exploring different events throughout our collective history that have de-centered us in space and time and made us question how we derive meaning and purpose in our lives.

Winter On Campus

This class was led by Lisa Adams, MD, and Dr. John Butterly, MD, who are both AMAZING. This class discussed several health issues such as diseases, malnourishment, and improper sanitation that still plagues the world today and various solutions that can be undertaken to increase the overall health and wellbeing of the world's population.

Spring Hanover, New Hampshire

A hallmark of the Dartmouth education, ECON 1 "The Price System" is offered during every term at Dartmouth except the summer. Whether or not students want to major in economics, many decide to make the first plunge into the world of supply and demand through this introductory course. ECON 1 was a memorable part of my Freshman Spring as I became engrossed into the economics department through the teachings of Professor Diego Ramos-Toro. This class helped me and other students alike gain an understanding of economic policy and concepts that I continue to be useful today. ECON 1 is a profoundly helpful course that would be beneficial to all students regardless of their academic interests.

Fall Hanover, New Hampshire

Development Economics is a course that focuses on using statistical methodologies to understand a fundamental question what makes some countries rich and others poor? And what can we do about it?

Winter Hanover, New Hampshire

Violence and Security is a class offered through the International Studies Department that seeks to understand the underlying causes of human conflict. To answer this question, the class takes on a multidisciplinary approach and draws from the fields of biology, anthropology, economics, and political science. I loved the way in which the class sought to “illuminate the news” through our discussions and also created a vivid space for us to actively question human behavior and the implications of governmental policy towards security.

Government 5 is one of Dartmouth’s most popular courses. In it, students get a taste for subjects in the international realm by thinking critically about the multiple facets of international politics including questions of conflict and security, global economics and trade, climate change, as well as allegiances and cooperation. I loved the way in which Professor Daryl Press was able to expertly weave current events into the class in order to make students gain a deeper understanding of the topics at hand.

One of the most unique experiences I've had at Dartmouth so far is participating in sailing lessons. Dartmouth offers sailing lessons to students during the summer terms which are counted towards the physical education requirements. 

I have always loved the way in which learning inevitably transcends the classroom space at Dartmouth. Whether it be through field labs, hiking experiences or cabin trips, the opportunities here are endless. This summer I've taken on one such activity through the Dartmouth Yacht Club in Mascoma Lake. This lake, located in Enfield, NH, is a 30 minute drive from the center of campus and hosts sailing lessons for students four days a week. Students get to go to the Dartmouth Yacht Club for three hours every week in a group of about 16 people in order to learn how to sail. 

Here, we go on three different types of boats to get sailing knowledge. During the first lesson we go out to Rhodes boats with the instructor in order to learn sailing basics such as how to steer, tack, jibe, and handle the mainsail and jib. Then, we go on to try FJs which are two person dinghies and Lasers which only fit one person. Throughout the course we learn how to rig and derig the boats before putting them in or after taking them out of the water. 

Dartmouth has pushed me in ways I didn't know were possible. Sailing has been a great experience so far, and one that I've found to be especially challenging. During the first few lessons I was intimidated by being all alone in the water and having to take control of the boat. However, with time and practice it has been great to find myself more secure in myself and better able to put my learning into practice. 

So far, sailing has often been some of the highlights of my weeks this summer as I have been fortunate for this peaceful opportunity to simply enjoy being out in the water and the thrill of sailing as a beginner.

Temporary Adjustment to the Physical Education Requirement

Due to extenuating circumstances caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, including impacts on students' schedules and ongoing concerns about virus transmission, the College has revised the Physical Education (PE) requirements for students graduating in the 2021-2022, 2022-2023, 2023-2024, and 2024-2025 academic years as follows:

2022-2023 academic year: All PE requirements are waived for students graduating in 2022 summer, 2022 fall, 2023 winter, and 2023 spring. For students in the class of 2023 and earlier, this wavier has been extended through 2024 winter. 

2023-2024 academic year:   The swim test has been waived for students graduating in 2023 summer, 2023 fall, 2024 winter and 2024 spring. The number of required PE courses has been reduced to 1 PE courses for students graduating in these terms.*

2024-2025 academic year: The swim test has been waived for students graduating in 2024 summer, 2024 fall, 2025 winter and 2025 spring. Students graduating in these terms are required to complete 2 PE courses.*

*Note the above adjustments are contingent upon the student's graduation term, not class year.

Starting with those who matriculated with the class of 2026, students are required to complete the Wellness Education program . Physical Education activities and courses will continue to count towards the Wellness Education program as will new wellness course offerings. There is no longer a swim requirement for graduation.

The purpose of the Physical Education Department is to provide students with the opportunity to experience a variety of activity courses and, in turn, to appreciate the importance of the healthy body/healthy mind connection. It is our goal to introduce undergraduates to a wide range of lifetime sports and activities so that they may benefit from them throughout their adult lives.

Students who participate in an intercollegiate, club sport or the Marching Band may receive credit for that activity during the terms in which they participate.  The Outdoor Programs Office and Dartmouth Outing Club offer a variety of classes, activities and clubs that may earn credit. Participation in many of the COSO dance groups may also provide the opportunity for PE credit.

Physical Education Activities

Sports skills and fitness classes include cardio and aerobics classes, yoga, spinning, strength training, pilates, martial arts, zumba, modern dance, skating, golf, fly fishing, tennis, table tennis, beginning swimming, racquetball, squash. Taking advantage of the Dartmouth Skiway and Dartmouth Yacht Club, ski and snowboard classes are offered in the winter and sailing classes in the summer.

OPO and DOC offerings include kayaking, canoeing, wilderness first aid, hiking, mountain biking, rock-climbing, cross-country skiing, organic farming, Ski Patrol and Timber Team.

Intramural Athletics:  The Intramural Program is open to the entire student body. Competition in more than thirty activities is organized for three divisions female, male, and open and Leagues that are competitive or recreational in nature. Teams in the different seasonal activities are organized by residence halls, fraternities, sororities, House communities, groups of friends, affinity groups, graduate students, staff, faculty, and administrators. It is the goal of the Intramural Program to organize a constructive, recreational program that provides sporting opportunities for every student, and encourages a spirit of participation, camaraderie, and sportsmanship.

Sailing and archery lessons offer students unique opportunities to earn PE credit

This summer dartmouth students speak about their experiences teaching and taking archery and sailing lessons for pe credit..

Dartmouth requires all of its students to complete credits in the physical education department to graduate. Starting with the class of 2026, Dartmouth students must complete three credits, while students graduating in the 2024-2025 academic year are required to complete two. During the summer term, the physical education department offers several unique-to-summer classes that fulfill this requirement, including archery and sailing lessons.

Summer sailing classes attract many students, taking place everyday Monday through Thursday on Mascoma Lake. Students in the course take a school bus to the Dartmouth Yacht Club for sailing practice. The only prerequisite for summer sailing is the ability to pass a 50-yard swim test. The class’s $250 registration fee includes Dartmouth Yacht Club membership and use of the club’s 22 boats after qualifying to be a skipper. Scholarships are also available to students receiving financial aid.

Dartmouth students are paid to lead sailing lessons. Instructors are both on the Dartmouth sailing team and non-athletes, all of whom “enjoy sailing,” according to sailing team member and summer sailing instructor Connor Vogel ’25. 

“I’ve been teaching sailing for four or five years, and I wanted to continue that,” Vogel said. “I love sailing, and I want other people to learn and experience it. Teaching other Dartmouth students is really cool, and I love sharing the sailing team with other ’25s.”

The Dartmouth Archery Club, a subclub of the Dartmouth Outing Club, hosts weekly hour-and-a-half-long practices throughout the summer as another physical education credit. The practices are free and open to all students, regardless of any previous experience, according to Daniel Lubliner ’25.

“I thought it was cool because it wasn't so much that it was like a lesson,” Lubliner said. “The instructor briefly showed us how to shoot, and then we did target practice in waves, which was really exciting.”

The end goal of the summer sailing lessons is to become “skipper proficient,” according to Rebecca Risch ’25, who is not on the sailing team but is a summer sailing instructor.

“We start in bigger boats as groups, and I walk them through everything, and then students do different roles,” Risch said. “I make sure they know how to do the very basic skills. From there, we advance to smaller boats like dinghies, and that's more independent because they're in either pairs or by themselves sailing around.”

Sailing instructor and sailing team member Maddie Regulla ’25 explained that students have already “learned so much” in lessons.

“I think it's super helpful to start in big boats and have everyone learn the basics with instructors in the boats,” Regulla said. “But even last week, we went for the first time in our solo boats and people were doing so well, just learning how to navigate the wind.”

Vogel, who was a walk-on to the sailing team, recommended the sailing classes as a way to see if walking-on could be an “option” for people thinking about joining the team, which accepts walk-ons in the skipper and crew positions.

Devon Starr ’25 compared sailing lessons to language “drill” because students are “thrown into sailing.”

“We just got thrown into sailing right away and had no idea what we were doing,” Starr said. “The instructors gave us some instructions, but mostly let us figure out what to do on our own, like learning a language in drill.”

For several students, summer sailing lessons are a “social activity,” according to sailing student John D’Avanzo ’25.

“We're usually on boats of either six people or two people, so you're always on a boat with someone, whether you know them or not,” D’avanzo said. “I would say I know half of the group pretty well and half of the group not so well, so it's awesome to talk with new and old friends on the water.”

To students considering what PE classes to take, Risch said sailing lessons are an “excellent way to fulfill the credit.”

“I would tell students considering the lessons that they should definitely sign up because it's a blast, and it's really fun to be able to sail with your friends, especially when you become more independent,” Risch said. “Once you know how to sail, you can come back and bring friends to sail on your own. I think it's a really good time, and it's a good way to get your PE credit if you don't have one already.”

D’Avanzo also said he has “no regrets” about taking summer sailing lessons.

“I would highly recommend that students do sailing lessons if they like being on the water, being in the sun, being with friends, doing anything outdoors,” D’Avanzo said. “It's just a really great way to get your PE credit, to spend some quality time in the lake, get off campus for a bit and a great thing to do over the summer.”

Lubliner is a former member of The Dartmouth staff. 

Correction Appended (July 17, 10:40 a.m.): A previous version of this article misquoted Lubliner. The article has been updated.

Smooth sailing: Community Boating Center's summer program more than just navigating waters

NEW BEDFORD — The Community Boating Center is keeping kids cool and engaged during its sailing summer program.

Located on the West side of Clark's Cove, the CBC gets kids' feet wet in water sports like kayaking and sailing, tying together classroom curriculum to create a balanced summer program. The eight-week Summer Youth Sailing program is offered to ages 7 to 17.

Executive Director Andy Herlihy said the goal of the program is to create a safe environment, for one's social-emotional well-being, but also incorporate the fun of learning aquaculture.

"The educational piece happens naturally," Herlihy said. "You're learning about yourself. It's breaking socio-economic boundaries. It doesn't matter where you're from, kids can just be kids here."

In photos: Community Boating Center summer sailing program

CBC works with local schools such as Our Sisters' School, New Bedford Public Schools, Bishop Stang High School and Greater New Bedford Regional Vocational Technical High School throughout the year, and the same knowledge is applied to summer programming.

"We position ourselves applying from the classroom," head instructor/CBC ambassador Nathan-Craig Machado said. "Geometry, fractions, those are all used when building a boat."

The CBC houses several wooden boats built at schools by students. Herlihy said there were more boats than they could store.

Teaching kids life skills

The other educational component is learning life skills . Machado said the kids learn important skills like cooperation, teamwork, delegation and completing tasks.

"We try and organize kids to be society-active and intelligent, teaching them how to read the room," Machado said.

Kids are also taught how to care for the equipment they use to teach them responsibility. The CBC encourages the kids to help instructors pull in boats after use. Problem-solving is another learning component, as one of the kids was struggling against the wind to pull in his sailboat. He laid down the sail in the water, which instructors said was the best solution in that case.

Building blocks: Community Boating Center gives youth skills to succeed

Another key aspect of the program is the growth from student to instructor. Junior instructors marked with orange shirts can start training as early as age 14 through the Junior Instructor (JI) program.

Machado entered the summer sailing program in 2010 as a student and worked his way up to instructor by 2016. He sees the program as a way for kids to "become mentors to future generations."

"It stresses the cycle of growth, from kid to instructor," Machado. "This is really an outreach program. It's great to see kids put back into the community."

Giving back

While the sailing program teaches integral life and socialization skills, it exposes the sport of sailing to kids who may not have the opportunity elsewhere. Izaiah Farr of Dartmouth joined the program when he was around 7 years old and said he "maxed out the racing program." After leaving for a yacht club and racing there, he went onto Cape Cod sailing and later college, sailing as a rising junior at Roger Williams University. With his arsenal of knowledge, he came back to the CBC to work as a head instructor and development intern.

"I wanted to come back here and give back," Farr said.

At an early age, Farr was serious about racing. He said his grandfather and Herlihy even sat down for a discussion on his progression, saying that this is what he wanted to do and they made sure he went where he wanted to be. Herlihy said Farr recognized that where he wanted to be was back at the CBC.

Farr currently works with the development director on grants and the JI program.

"I want to get kids into racing," Farr said. "Sailing is a frustrating sport, but it's important to learn how to lose."

An average day in the summer program

Staff start their day early, arriving around 7:30 a.m. Kids begin to arrive at the CBC around 8:15 a.m. Around 9:30 a.m., the kids hit the water, but the curriculum is entirely weather-dependent, Herlihy said. On rainy days, the kids are still learning STEM curriculum indoors. Alternatively, based on weather, some days may include a beach cleanup if the wind is too strong. After a morning of sailing skill work, the kids enjoy lunch and an afternoon in the water acclimating to the environment.

Prior to the pandemic, the CBC held programs at both Fort Taber and the main dock, the former shut down temporarily. During COVID-19, last year's classes were organized into pods for a smaller scale experience. Class sizes were around 10 kids each, but with restrictions lifted, class sizes have grown to an average of 15 kids, varying per age group. Herlihy said the student to staff ratios are low, with roughly four students per instructor for one-on-one guidance. The CBC currently serves about 600 kids in summer programming but 6,000 kids year-round through schools.

Throughout the year, the CBC typically holds a science and sailing class and blends it into classes at school. For the summer season, the sailing program is $375 per week, but Herlihy said that about 85% of youth are tuition free, making financial aid options as available as possible. The CBC works with Child and Family Services and the New Bedford Housing Department to help spread the word.

"Kids don't know it's accessible," Herlihy said. "It's more of a recreational feel, based on being a kid to just have fun."

The CBC was incorporated in 1998 as a small program functioning out of Fort Taber. In 2000, two houses were donated to the organization for office and storage use. The CBC hosts programs for ages 5 to 24, including the summer youth sailing program, instructor training program, Sailing into Knowledge, Boats by Kids and adult sailing lessons.
