The National Eating Disorder Association spread awareness of eating disorders from Feb. 26 to March 4 for National Eating Disorder Week.
Although data has not been collected for U of L, 14 percent of college students have a diagnosable eating disorder, including bulimia nervosa, binge-eating and anorexia nervosa.
As the Director of Eating Anxiety Treatment Laboratory Clinic, U of L professor Cheri Levinson oversees research and clinical work.
