4/10 Class

Today, we discussed health policies and nutrition. we took notes regarding topics like the National Nutrition Policy, which envelops food labels, dietary guidelines, food assistance programs, food safety concerns, and related issues; as well as how to put legislation into action and the formation of a bill into a law. We went old-school and watched part of SchoolHouse Rock, which I used to watch when I was in elementary school ("conjunction junction, whats your function?" Haha, excellent. We were also assigned our agencies; I'm working on a handout for Fruit and Veggies More Matters. This is fantastic; hopefully I can incorporate some of what I learn into my thesis, or at least our summer program.
