Almost 25 Oglethorpe students recently took to the mats to learn self-defense techniques from officers of the Brookhaven Police Department. Officer Russell Davis led the class, teaching the participants in military drill style, which included nearly three hours of non-stop palm strikes, back kicks, and the proper execution of escape techniques.

Sponsored by the Counseling Center, the event was so popular that several people were put on the waiting list! We look forward to offering this type of event again in future semesters.
