We love the thought of eating healthily so much that we trick ourselves into doing it.
People love to talk about food, especially college students. But, for some reason, it’s so hard for these same people — people who will gleefully tell you about their two bagels with shmear for breakfast and their personal pizza for dinner — to talk about eating disorders.
There's no escaping from "fat."
FRIDAY
Four straight bowl wins, a 4-1 mark in its last five games against Clemson and a humongous home stadium in Williams-Brice Stadium.
President Harris Pastides has a definite Pavlovian response to the sound of the President's House doorbell. And it has to do with cookies.

The Counseling and Human Development Center has extended its hours in order to accommodate students' needs in the wake of the murder-suicide in the Arnold School of Public Health Thursday.
There is nowhere on campus quite like the Caroliniana Library.
This week marks The Daily Gamecock’s 107th anniversary. In case you were wondering, that’s a pretty big deal. It takes long hours, late nights, a lot of sacrifice and a strong team who is willing to push others to explore their bounds. In doing this, several TDG alumni found a niche and flourished working in the newsroom. And in a profession dominated by men until the late 20th Century, TDG’s journalistic efforts have continued the trend of strong female professionals. In celebration of TDG’s big day, we reached out to a few alumni to share how their newsroom experiences have helped shape their careers.
The first time I entered a film production class at New York University I was 17 years old and thrilled to be there, until the professor addressed all of the young women in the classroom directly and told us that the class would be difficult for us in particular because quality cinematography required exceptional math skills and that we should be careful not to treat our 16mm cameras like fashion accessories.
I started my college career at the University of South Carolina as a psychology [major] and English minor. At that time, I knew nothing of women’s studies. Over halfway through my undergraduate program, I signed up for a postmodernism course, which evolved into a Third World women writers class. This is the class that changed the course of my life. The professor was unlike any other. I was both overwhelmed and enlightened by the course content and structure. I had never taken a class that was student-centered; we were encouraged to speak freely and to engage in literary discussion circles. My mind began twisting and turning as we read women’s literature and deconstructed language.
Thinking back to five fulfilling decades as a scientist and teacher, I marvel at how it all started. When the shadow of the Great Depression darkened mid-western prairies, my nature-loving parents lived sustainably off the land in northern Wisconsin and the Quetico Canoe Wilderness of Canada. I thrived on the sights and sounds of that pristine environment and quickly decided on an academic career in ecology.

FRIDAY
The civil rights movement was supported by a deep bench of black musicians, whose music galvanized protestors through sit-ins, marches and demonstrations. Here are two of the movement's most prominent songs:
"As Americans, we respect human dignity ... That's why we defend free speech, and advocate for political prisoners, and condemn the persecution of women, or religious minorities, or people who are lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender. We do these things not only because they're right, but because they make us safer." -— President Barack Obama during his sixth State of the Union address Tuesday
