PA tuition program is meeting topic Penn State will hold eating disorders screening program * Dr. Joy Armillay, director of outpatient services at Aristotle Group, an affiliate of Human Ser- vices Consultants Management, Inc., will provide eating disorder screenings at Penn State Wilkes- Barre in Lehman. The screenings will take place from 12 noon to 2 p.m. on Monday, Feb. 28 in the Student Commons lounge. Dr. Armillay, director of outpa- tient services at Aristotle Group, an affiliate of Human Services Consultants Management, Inc., will conduct the screenings in conjunction with the National Eating Disorders Screening Pro- gram (NEDSP). The NEDSP is a national nonprofit program held every two years and will take place during Eating Disorders Aware- ness Week, Feb. 14-18. Eating disorders include anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa and binge eating disorder. All can re- sult in serious medical problems including significant weight loss, cardiac abnormalities, osteoporo- sis and skin, digestive and intes- tinal problems. If untreated, they can lead to death. The psycho- logical characteristics vary, but usually include poor self-esteem, isolation from family and friends, and significant disturbances in the way the person sees his or her body. Armillay, a well-known regional nutritionist, eating disorder spe- cialist, and a national lecturer on eating disorders said,”Our over- riding message to students is that people come in a broad range of shapes and sizes and that the most important thing is how you feel inside. It's a shame when the excitement of the college experi- ence is overshadowed by calorie counting, compulsive exercising and worrying about clothing size. The screenings are free, anony- mous, and open to the commu- nity. For more information, call (670) 675-9224.
