Biological science junior Bob Reed fights hard and sings softly.
“For 50 minutes twice a week, I’m not thinking of anything but punching and kicking,” Reed said. “It’s fantastic.”
Going down singing
Biological science interdepartmental junior Bob Reed explains how he balances his life between being a member of the Capital Green co-ed a cappella group and his classes, one being karate.
Reed said he blows off steam during karate classes at IM Sports-West twice a week but also when he rehearses with his a cappella group, Capital Green.
“We are a very close-knit group of friends that have pretty much become family,” Reed said, of the a cappella group. “You hear people talk about other groups, and the way they talk about them, they don’t sound as close.”
Reed said he learns patience and understanding from Capital Green and control and discipline from the karate classes he’s taken since fall 2012.
“It’s really cool how everyone is there to help you and you’re there to help them,” he said about karate class. “It’s always a give and take, and it’s really nice.”
