HNR 240 Food Stories presents….”Rot or Not?”

A group of students in Jolynn Parker’s HNR 240 Food Stories class has created this display on the ground floor of Bird Library to educate the SU community about chemicals in processed food.  The food should rot, right?  Wouldn’t it be disturbing if it didn’t rot?  Follow the progress of the three burgers (McDonald’s, campus dining, and locally sourced, respectively) at their tumblr feed below.

Calling All Honors Students!

the Jump logo

A message from your fellow Honors student, Victoria Troxler: 

Hello Honors Students,

I am in the process of creating my Capstone magazine and am looking for writers who are interested in feminine interest publications. Writers are needed in the following departments: finance, beauty, fashion, food, and living. Most of the pieces are short front of the book pieces so it would be a great way for freshmen and sophomores to get clips without committing a ton of time to a publication.

 The Jump is a life stage magazine for women, focused on the transition from college life to the real world. The magazine’s audience is the post- or soon-to-be graduate women from ages 19-25. These women—newcomers to the “real world”—are interested in a luxury lifestyle, but also understand the need to budget and focus on their careers. The Jump answers the questions women have about living on their own in the simplest way. The Jump will have it all: from paying off student loans and cooking essentials, to office appropriate fashion and decorating on a dime.  The magazine will give its readers the tools to achieve the lifestyle they want, for less. The premier May 2013 issue will be available free and online in the spring of 2013.
