I hope everyone is staying cool! Calling all management dietitians!!!! CDR is in need of item writers for the registration exam. I have been involved in this process for years and can honestly say it is the best volunteer job in the profession of dietetics! The growth, networking, and friendship opportunities are amazing and they take great care of their volunteers. If you think you might be interested, message me and I will put you in contact with the manager in charge of recruitment.

May 10th, others will continue on to the St. Louis University internship program. Congrats to all! Beautiful ceremony!
Congrats to Mary Beth on her retirement as well! Lots to celebrate.

We could not be more proud of these two stellar Dietetics Coordinated Program Students.
They traveled to Jefferson City this morning to represent and support RDNs and future RDNs - talk about "showing up".
Proposed changes to a current bill relating to licensure is at stake and these changes would eliminate protections for the health and wellbeing of the public by unqualified practitioners providing nutrition assessments to patients with nutrition-related disease and medical conditions.
Thank you Fontbonne students, Heidi and Kerri for being an advocate for all of us RDNs and for stepping outside the classroom and going above and beyond!

Check out this post created by Brooke, one of our soon-to-graduate dietetic interns, during her community rotation. What a great idea to stay active during the holiday this week!

Hey teens! Grab your family and friends and join us in a Thanksgiving themed workout!

Use the workout sheet and video to learn how to perform each exercise! During each commercial do the assigned exercise. After the commercial, document how many reps you did on the workout sheet. At the end of the Thanksgiving Day Parade, tally the totals for each exercise. Tag a photo of you and your family/friends getting your sweat on and use the hashtag !

Did you know that 48 million people were sickened as a result of foodborne illness in 2020?
Dietetics graduate students created a simple and free informative infographic to educate the Fontbonne community on how to follow safe handling procedures, including storing foods in ways that prevent cross-contamination, practicing good personal hygiene, and cleaning and sanitizing items correctly.
Please check out the free downloadable infographic and don’t forget to share with your friends and family!
