Eating Disorders

This webpage is designed to inform Susquehanna students about eating disorders.  We believe this is an important topic because 8 million people in the United States suffer from anorexia nervosa, bulimia, and related eating disorders.   It is estimated that 25% of college graduates may have an eating disorder, making this an important topic on college campuses.  This figure may be underestimated because people are often very secretive about their behavior and do not seek help.
