New task force works for help line
Eating disorders a campus problem
By Peggy Kramer Staff writer
A new campus task force, formed last semester, is coordinating an information network to help students with bulimia and anorexia nervosa, the two most common eating disorders.
Joan Cesari, founder of the task force, said Friday that she expected at least one of the task force's informational projects to be implemented this semester.
Bulimia, or bulimarexia, is known as the binge-purge syndrome. Bulimics eat abnormally large amounts of food followed by self-
induced vomiting or abuse of laxatives.
Anorexics are characterized by an intense prespecuity with food combined with an irrational fear of gain-affected females by affect women, local councils, and
The task force was established in October to coordinate education and outreach efforts by existing counseling and support groups for people with eating disorders, Cesari, a counselor for the University counseling center, said.
Representatives from Watkins Mental Health Clinic, the clinical psychology department and the
Anorexia Nervosa and Associated Disorders support group have combined efforts and are discussing pro-ideas for the task force, Cesari said.
Last Friday, the committee had its third meeting to discuss projects which would help educate students about the eating disorders, Cesari said. One project the committee is considering is to bring in professionals to speak at residence halls and sororities.
Another project is a 24-hour phone information line which would offer callers information but not counseling. The calls would be kept confidential and anonymous, Cesari said.
Ann Kohl, registered dietitian at Watkins Memorial Hospital, said the task force recognized the need for advice and help for students with eating disorders, and wanted to provide correct information to them.
"People who receive information from the wrong sources can do more harm than good," said Kohl.
The task force doesn't spend much time on counseling, Cesi said, although there are many organizations that do. The Anorexia Nervosa and Associated Disorders support group is one such organization.
