Little Rock’s Oak Dorm Deal with Life’s Adversities

Last week, Oak Dorm used a physical activity to focus on overcoming adversity in other areas of life on March 29. Oak Dorm’s Residential Advisors, both former football players, and Dorm Supervisor combined football techniques and life skills to serve as examples of how to deal with life’s adversities. Students were given barriers to run around, jump over and had parachutes strapped to their backs to give resistance. These items were a representation of obstacles students will encounter in their day-to-day life to teach them how to push through to accomplish their goals.
