Daily Republic: Solano college cuts PE for physically, mentally disabled

ROCKVILLE — For the second year in a row, Solano Community College’s fall class schedule will be thinner. Among the courses missing will be weightlifting and aquatics for physically and mentally disabled students.

The cuts bring tears to Marina Nitsche’s eyes. It took some nudging, but Nitsche enrolled in the adaptive PE classes at the college in 2010 at the urging of her doctor. She had chronic pain in her joints, was overweight and wore a size 28.
