The University of Oregon sociology department has found that a much lower percentage of women who took a self-defense class reported incidents of unwanted sexual contact than the women who did not take a class. On Wednesday, February 19 and 27, join the Eberly Center for Women for a women’s self-defense class facilitated by UT Police Officer Jill Goldberg. Attendees will become more aware of their surroundings and learn specific techniques to fend off attackers. Don’t forget to wear comfortable athletic clothing and shoes and pre-registration is required.
5:30pm. Catherine Eberly Center for Women, University of Toledo. 419-530-8570. https://utoledo.edu/centers/eberly. Free.
