About Us

We believe that it is important that all students who are pursuing a health profession (pre-med, pre-PA, pre-nursing, pre-pharmacy, pre-physical therapy, pre-dental, etc.) expand their nutrition background. This RSO is ideal for students who are pursuing graduate school for a health-related profession, or who are just interested in learning more about nutrition. We welcome everyone!

Our organization has the following goals:

• Expand nutrition background in order for our members to become more well-rounded healthcare providers and make a difference in the lives of future patients 
• Start off each general meeting with a brief nutrition discussion/commentary
• Reflect on documentaries that examine relevant nutrition topics in our present-day society 
• Create nutrition education materials to be presented to various community organizations 
• Bring in relevant speakers that are involved in health-related fields (and connect those fields to nutrition!)
• Provide nutrition/health-related volunteering opportunities in the Champaign-Urbana community 
• Host social events to foster an enjoyable, supportive network of like-minded individuals 
• Professional development for graduate school and beyond
