Starting in the Spring 2000, MIT started offering Tech Squares Crash Crash course as a PhysEd class. And a year later, PE credit was officially offered for the class. The class is limited to two hours, so it officially runs 8:15 to 10:15. Be aware that the PE classes officially start one week after the rest of MIT classes. This means if Crash Course starts the first week of classes, we will have a group of PE students appear at 8:15 on Week 2 expecting to be taught from scratch. If students write us about signing up for our PE class, we should tell them to register through the lottery. While in practice we can just take them into the class, to the PE department sign-ups are an indication of demand and it’s in our best interest for the department to know if we’re a popular offering through initial sign-ups.
