Rape Aggression Device (RAD)

The RAD program at ISU is a free twelve hour class that may be broken down into two or more sessions. The final night of class is known as "Simulation Night". Students participate in a simulated attack, in an effort to reinforce the skills they have learned. Protective gear is provided and all simulations are monitored by trained RAD Instructors.

For more information contact:

Lt. David Smith (Instructor) 812-237-4016, David.Smith@indstate.edu

Sgt. Jacquelyn Smith (Instructor) 812-237-5555, Jacquelyn.Smith@indstate.edu

The RAD System is a program of realistic, self-defense tactics and techniques. The RAD system is a comprehensive course for women that begins with awareness, prevention, risk reduction and avoidance, while progressing on to the basics of hands-on defense training. RAD is not a Martial Arts program. Our courses are taught by certified RAD Instructors, Lt. David Smith and Sgt. Jacquelyn Smith. A workbook/reference manual, which outlines the entire physical defense program for reference and continuous personal growth, is provided at no cost.

The RAD System of physical defense is currently being taught at many colleges and universities. The growing, wide spread acceptance of this system is primarily due to the ease, simplicity and effectiveness of our tactics. Solid research, legal defensibility and unique teaching methodology. The Rape Aggression Defense System is dedicated to teaching women defensive concepts and techniques against various types of assault, by utilizing easy, effective and proven self-defense/martial arts tactics.

The RAD System of realistic defense will provide a woman with the knowledge to make an educated decision about resistance. RAD Systems operate on the premise that a spontaneous violent attack will stimulate a natural desire to resist, on the part of the victim (supported by research). We educate women about "The Flight or Fight Syndrome", while showing them that enhancing their option of physical defense is not only prudent, but a necessity if natural resistance is to be effective.

Safety and survival in today's world requires a definite course of action. We provide effective options by teaching women to take an active role in their own self-defense and psychological well being.

It is the mission of the ISU Police Communications Division to serve as a link between the campus community and the University regarding public safety and emergency assistance. The Communications Center is staffed 24 hours a day seven days a week by certified Law Enforcement Communications Officers, trained by the Indiana Law Enforcement Academy and Vigo County 911 Office.

Communications Officers are responsible for answering calls for police, fire, emergency medical services, maintenance and escort services. They monitor fire, intrusion, emergency and maintenance alarms and dispatch the appropriate people needed to correct those situations when they occur.

The blue light phone system provides a direct link to the ISU Police and 911 services. The Communications Center serves as the primary monitoring station for that system. Along with the telephone system, video cameras have been installed to increase security in the parking lots.

The Communications Center is equipped with the latest technology to efficiently serve the University community.

The Communications Center is here to help you. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact our staff.
