The Public Safety Department, in conjunction with the Sports Center, is offering classes in the Rape Aggression Defense for Women program, also known as RAD Basic. The classes teach women basic defense techniques, as well as awareness, prevention, and risk reduction-avoidance measures.

Students can earn one credit through the Fitness & Leisure program as well as receive a manual to keep for reference. Each participant will receive a lifetime return and practice policy. These sessions are offered as independant study.
