The following is a one-act play containing a dialogue between two phys
ical education and sport science professors (Metzler, 1994) as they tr
avel back from the 1995 NAPEHE Conference, ''Beyond Scholarship Recons
idered: The Mosaic of Scholarship in Physical Education.'' The play's
dialogue is drawn from three major sources: the authors' biographies,
their personal opinions regarding Scholarship Reconsidered, and the pu
blished professional literature in physical education and the sport sc
iences. The characters represent two cohorts in faculty: those who are
early in their careers and those who have carried out the first half
of their careers under the current model of scholarship in higher educ
ation.
