The leisure service industry's existence is based on the premise that leisure enhances the quality of life available to an individual, society, or culture. As in any profession, foundational perspectives and knowledge are required as a basis for further personal and professional development. In this course, students will engage in a variety of oral presentations to explore the historical, psychological and economic impact of recreation, leisure, and play in contemporary American society. Information on the role of government at the local, state and federal levels and its influence on recreation will also be presented.
