Love Your Body Week – National Eating Disorders Awareness Week
February 25-29th, 2008
The purpose of National Eating Disorders Awareness Week is to promote positive body image and educate students on the reality and prevalence of eating disorders. The key message and theme for the week at Elon is “Be Comfortable in Your Own Genes. Wear Jeans that fit the TRUE you,” and we are encouraging all Elon faculty, students, and staff along with student organizational leaders to wear their blue jeans and to support this campaign on Friday, February 29, Love Your Body Day. We will also be holding a clothing drive throughout the week for people to drop off their old and used blue jeans for donation to a local charity. Check out the rest of our events for the week below:
