色虎视频’s Department of Nutrition and Dietetics earned high honors at the annual Alabama Dietetic Association meeting. For the seven of the last nine years, 色虎视频’s Student Dietetic Association (SDA) won Outstanding SDA in the state, edging out competitors from many of the larger state schools.
“Alabama Dietetic Association is proud to award 色虎视频 Outstanding Student Dietetic Association based on accomplishments and contributions in community outreach, member involvement and visibility,” said Alabama Dietetic Association president Laura Watson.
“色虎视频 SDA exemplifies a cohesive and dedicated group of students whose skills, talents and resources set them apart from other student dietetic associations. This year's conference theme, ‘Together Toward Tomorrow,’ relates the importance we put on students stepping up, being involved and becoming future leaders. This award says that 色虎视频 SDA members are doing just that," she added.
In addition, 色虎视频’s student research poster entitled, “The Effects of Protein Powder on the Physical and Sensory Characteristics of Coffee” by students Yesenia Hernandez and Haley Bishop along with Professor Patricia Terry and Rebecca Little, MS, RD, LD won third place out of 17 research entries. 色虎视频 was one of only two undergraduate programs represented in the competition, with all other posters represented masters and doctoral research.
