iberty offered a variety of classes this year thattheaverage student may not »have known about Classes, such as Hapkido, drew crowds of students ready to take down theirclassmates with jekki attacks.

For students who were ready to spread their wings, Liberty also offered an aviation program inwhich participants studied toreceive a pilot's license.

Military Science, a must-take course for ROTC enrollees, may have been the class that was least like the average course.

He recommended thecourse forBusiness majorslike himself and other students saying, "The tactics you use inthebusiness world arethesame ason thebattle-field."

For students who were looking foraclass where they could let loose and have fun while earning an elective credit, there was bowling class

Many students who looked at the class had trouble taking it seriously. Despite preconceptions they may have had,the students who actually enrolled found it tobe a challenging and interesting course.Joses Merat,a sophomore from Pennsylvania, stated,"Attending theclasses made me want tobowl more often."

Even though the class fee didn't include nachos, andgutter guards were prohibited,it was a class Merat said hewouldn't mind takingagain. He, along with his classmates, improved their game considerably during the semester Merat related a story of how "...one guy bowled nine strikes ina row, bowled two more inthe tenth, and blew the last one (onestrike away from a perfect game) Everyone was watching That is mass pressure.. better himthanme."
