Southwestern Community College will once again offer the popular Fight Like A Girl course from 9 a.m. to noon on Saturday, Feb. 11.

This module is especially effective for dealing with attacks in parking lots and garages where victims could be transported to a secondary location. Students learn to escape the dreaded and deadly “blitz” attack from behind as well as how to defend their space.

It is centered on the “Stay with People” principle and covers the most common sexual assault scenarios.  

The course will be held on the Jackson Campus and cost $30. 828.339.4497.
