RAD Self-Defense Class Offered in the Fall

The Rape Aggression Defense (RAD) program is a half-credit self-defense class offered through the Department of Health and Exercise Sciences and taught by officers of the Truman Police Department. This cooperative program is a block class consisting of eight weeks of instruction. It is offered during the first block of the fall semester.

The program is designed as a women-only program and consists of both classroom and hands-on instruction. At the end of the program, students will take part in a realistic scenario-based simulation to use the skills they have learned.
