Students, I would like to call your attention to a summer online course. It is called Nutrition in the 21st Century and is GST 368, an advanced interdisciplinary seminar. The course is scheduled to be offered first session. I have posted the course description. If you have any questions, contact me at beedle@elon.edu or 278-5870.
The purpose of this course will be to explore ways that knowledge of nutrition will help you be a better global citizen. Topics include the role nutrition plays in helping you function better cognitively, emotionally, and physically; the cultural and societal trends and controversies related to nutrition in the 21st century; and ways nutrition knowledge can help you understand the world’s problems such as food insecurity and food terrorism. This course is writing intensive and is open to students in the third or fourth year of study.
