I have no problem with interdisciplinary majors, and I don't see how it corrupts academics.
I would rather disband the athletics then sacrifice the academics at Tech. Adding jock majors hurts the Institute as a whole, by devaluing the education. I love the football team, and I would love to see us win every year. But the school itself is vastly more important. Besides, we've already got INTA and the M-Train.
I am proud of my Tech Degree but I do not think it would be diminished any way if there were a PE degree at Tech any more than a UGA law degree is diminished by jocks taking PE at UGA.
Easier majors are a way to get better talent on the field and have a better chance of winning but another way to win is to scheme around your lack of size, speed, and talent. Purdue, TTU, WVU, Tulsa (this year), Navy are all doing this and we will try it with PJ's offense. I just think our current academic requirement, despite being very challenging, do allow for SA's who are talented enough to come in and run a system that will equalize the playing field when matched up against more talented teams. So no I don't think we needs basketweaving majors to be succesful given PJ's offense (fingers crossed on the two minute drill).
