NUTN 505 Reading and Conference

Credits: 0.25 to 0.5
A professional book club series is sponsored each year for students of the GPHN, faculty, preceptors and members of the community. Three nutrition-related books are read and discussed. Books selected for discussion provide a balance depiction of a nutrition-policy issue, a nutrition-ethics issue, and/or a nutrition-history or current nutrition trend. Students enrolled in this course work in small groups to host one of the book club discussions by preparing a list of discussion questions, designing an informative flyer to announce the book and the session, marketing the discussions sessions to interested parties, inviting guest speakers and introducing the topic.
