...if it is a public institution, I think it entirely out of place.
It is (...or was) a requirement in the CSU system. No one complained. Then again, the requirement wasn't related to Body Mass Index, it was related to taking the class - two of them actually.
It's not going to kill anyone to take two PE classes in college. It might, however, literally kill someone to get their BMI under 30. That takes more effort depending on the severity of the obesity. A BMI over 30 classifies the person as
morbidly obese.
I say if the requirement is only to take the PE classes and no conection to BMI, then fine, I think the BMI component is a bit
none of your business.
