UNL parachute course Jump not required to pass Students who sometimes feel like taking a jump during finals week can now take a course to prepare themselves. Jim Hesson, physical education instructor, is teaching a one-credit course in parachuting this semester. Students who wish to take the course should register for Physical Education 144. "The course is taught just like a ground school," Hesson said. "We do no actual jumping during the course. These who wish to make a jump with the Lincoln Sport Parachute Club (LSPC) may do so after they have completed the class." The coeducational class has attracted 85 students this semester, he said. During class, students receive instruction in all of the procedures and rules of parachuting, equipment, rigging up the equipment, how to put it on, different aircrafts, how to exit the plane, packing of the parachute and all other phases of the jump, Hesson said. "We go through the jump sequentially and also cover all emergency procedures," he said. Those who do wish to make the jump must iirSt join the United States Parachute Association (USPA). Students receive a special membership rate of $13 for three months, he said. An additional fee of $15 is charged by the LSPC in order to make a jump. The LSPC recognize the course as adequate training, he said. Hesson has a class "C" UPSA license (class "D" is the highest possible) and is a certified jump master and a certified USPA instructor.
