Hello, everyone. There is a student on campus writing an article about
on-campus bars. Since I have never attended a university where there is a
drinking establishment on campus, I am wondering if any of you have bars on
campus? If you do could you please take a minute and jot down what you
think are the benefits and drawbacks to having alcohol service on campus?
Thank you in advance.

Thank you Dr. Cissell for putting a junior saluki in his place, but I persist.
Surely there was a defining course or moment that stands out for you like an
Epiphany. For me it was community organization. I thought I had died and gone to
heaven. There I found a philosophy/model/construct/genre that merged with my
incomplete, yet emerging health education psyche.
How and where was it for you? Where did you begin your health education journey?

George,
Asking which couse in a curriculum was most beneficial is like
asking which ingredient in a complex recipe is most needed to make the disk
delicious. It is not the single course that stands out, but the culmination
of all the curriculum and the interactions with faculty and fellow students
that made each degree program useful. I completed a B.S. degree in health
education
at SIU-C, an MSPH degree at UCLA, and a Ph.D. degree at SIU-C. I am unwilling
to single out a particular course in any curriculum and say that it was the
make or break course. If I could do so, I would be suggesting that many of
the other courses or unnecessary.
As far as the course of least value, I can think of a few professors that I
was not impressed with, but I can think of no single course that I would
identify
as a useless or unnecessary course in the curriculum

Margo, any nutrition text will have a section on the science of water,
recommendations and citations to support them. It is likely that your
university health sciences library would have one or more, or you could get
through library loan.
Some examples would be
Mahan LK, Escott-Stump, S. Krause's Food, Nutrition and Diet Therapy, 10th
ed., 2000.
Shils ME, Shike M, Olson JA. Modern Nutrition in Health and Disease, 9th
ed., 1999.
Williams, SR. Basic Nutrition and Diet Therapy, 11th ed, 2000 (she has
written other nutrition books also)
Duyff RL. The American Dietetic Association's Complete Food and Nutrition
Guide, 1998. (This one is available in book stores.)
She could also try the web site for Dietary Reference Intakes
<http://books.nap.edu/nap-cgi/newsrch.cgi?term=Dietary+Reference+Intakes>
since water is one of the six essential nutrients. I'm not sure that they
have addressed water, but it would be the definitive research based source.
Good luck! Nancy Bates

Does anyone know of any completed or current studies being done on the
CHES credential and best practice?? Are those with the CHES credential
more likely to implement best practice in health promotion interventions
than those without the credential?? If not, is this something that
should be investigated.

Hello All,
I am involved with community cholesterol screenings and have recently been
asked this question regarding cholesterol results:
What effects cholesterol results today? Is it what I ate recently (as in
yesterday) or what I ate 30 days ago?
I've been doing a literature search everywhere looking for some supportive
answer and have come up against a roadblock. Any ideas, suggestions,
references, etc. would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Amy Lyons

You're right, Nancy, and I appreciate the references. I found a number of
similar, online nutrition articles, including one from the Nebraska
Cooperative Extension - http://www.ianr.unl.edu/pubs/foods/g918.htm#req
Yet each mention there is no RDA or now RDI for water consumption; so I'm
wondering about the science behind the recommendation of 8 or 10 eight ounce
glasses/day for the average person.
Now my recollection (which is very dangerous as some know my brain is
working at sub-normal speed after an amazing encounter with bacterial spinal
meningitis) is that the master's students at Johns Hopkins developed a
campaign to increase water consumption. They asked their Dean to sign on as
the spokesperson, endorser, whatever. He refused saying that the Johns
Hopkins Public Health program was a science-based program, and he challenged
them to provide the science for a recommendation to drink a specific number
of glasses of water per day. Maybe that is my clue that it doesn't really
exist.
There is remarkable literature in sports medicine and exercise physiology
focused on athletes, especially high level athletes - Olympians, marathon
runners, etc. I particularly appreciated Jill Henderson's suggestion to
visit the web site for the American College of Sports Medicine and view the
position stand on exercise and fluid replacement (January 1996) -
http://www.acsm-msse.org/ . My student was challenged by her employer to
locate the science for the recommendation for the more "common" person to
drink 8 - 10 glasses of water per day. I'm still searching. Thanks for
your answer. Margo
