For this year's theme there is a broad range of events to attend. On Sept. 29, Koren Zailckas, author of "Smashed," the first year experience required reading for the summer, will be presenting. The book is about a woman who faced many hard times with drugs and alcohol and overcame them.

The next scheduled event will be held on Oct. 28, with Kevin Roberts, the Food Dude, who will speak on and demonstrate ways to prepare healthy food. Kevin recently competed on the Food Network's "Next Food Network Star" competition. He has also appeared as the chef on ESPN's "Cold Pizza."

On Nov. 13, Dr. Joan Borysenko will discuss the role of psychological factors in physical health and wellness. Dr. Borysenko is a pioneer in integrative medicine and a world-renowned expert in the mind/body connection.

By going to these events put on by the university's theme program, students can better themselves and live a healthier life.

If anyone would like to suggest a theme or has ideas for events, contact Comerford at at-comerford@wiu.edu.
