There's so much to report this week!
A very good friend and respected colleague of mine is on Dr. Oz today....again! This time she talks about the link between obesity and cancer. Here's a clip of what's to come: Dr. Kathleen Wolin talks about Obesity and Cancer on Dr. Oz.
The website for ChildObesity 180 has launched as well. Currently focused on three main initiatives (healthy out of school time snacks, healthier school breakfasts, and physical activity during school hours), this new Tufts project is very exciting! Check it out: ChildObesity 180: Reverse the Trend
And finally, my alma mater, Hotchkiss, gets mention in the NYT for their program that connects students to the land via farming on school property. I didn't think it was possible to love Hotchkiss more, but I absolutely do. Read more about the efforts at Hotchkiss and other New England schools:
Prep Schools Encourage Students to Learn to Farm
Perhaps Hotchkiss and the rest will start a nationwide trend!
