The MSEUF DOST Scholars’ Guild participated in SAFE-EU: Self-Defense and Safety Training on March 6 at the St. Bonaventure Student Center, third floor of the CCJC Building, to strengthen student awareness and preparedness in personal safety.
The program aimed to equip students with essential knowledge and practical skills in self-defense. It opened with a morning seminar that introduced basic self-defense concepts and discussions on different martial arts.
In the afternoon, participants joined a hands-on training session where they practiced fundamental self-defense techniques under the guidance of an expert instructor.
The activity helped students better understand how to respond to potential threats and dangerous situations. Through both discussion and practical application, participants gained valuable insights into protecting themselves and others.
The program also helped build confidence, discipline and responsibility among students. It emphasized the importance of awareness, preparedness and quick decision-making in promoting personal and community safety.
Through its participation, the DOST Scholars’ Guild supported the university’s effort to provide safety-oriented learning experiences that contribute to holistic student development.
The activity reflected MSEUF’s commitment to student-centered education by supporting programs that promote safety, confidence and practical life skills. It also upheld the core values of Mindfulness, Service and Fortitude as students learned to become more aware, prepared and responsible in protecting themselves and others.
