R.A.D. courses scheduled for fall
The Regional Center for Continuing Education and the Public
Safety Division at Valdosta State University are offering Rape
Aggression Defense (R.A.D.) courses, taught by Cpl. Dennis Nealon,
crime prevention officer.
According to Nealon, the R.A.D. program teaches women the cognitive
and physical skills that enable them to be more aware of their
surroundings, avoid dangerous situations, and reduce their risks of
being assaulted. The R.A.D. program gives women the confidence they
need to protect themselves.
The 12-hour course is divided into four classes. The first class is
Sept.16?19, from 5:30?8:30 p.m., in the Continuing Education
Building Auditorium. The second class is scheduled for Oct. 14?17,
from 5:30?8:30 p.m., in the Continuing Education Building
Auditorium. There is a $15 fee to take either class.
For more information about the course, contact VSU's Crime
Prevention Office at 245?6493 or Continuing Education at
