We included the screening as part of Celebrate your Body Day. We also had a
scale smashing and ad shredding events. We had a signing of the Declaration of
Independence from a weight obsession world.

The number of students who have positive screening this year was low. However,
the screening day is an excellent way of raising awareness about eating
disorders and mental health in general. We always see an increase in intake
after a screening day as people become more aware of the counseling services at
our school.
University of New Orleans
Our screening was held in the University Center, a high traffic area. Three
consecutive tables were decorated with a Valentine’s theme. Each participant
screened received a valentine goody bag with candy and a valentine puffy
squeeze heart ordered from Oriental Trading Co; the freebie was the draw.
Sorority sisters approached students to complete the forms. We screened 189 in
3 hours.
