I just had to share with y'all a great experience I just had.  I was asked to
speak to a class at Wheaton College -- the course these students are taking
is Public Health & Nutrition out of the Biology Dept.  Most of them are
seniors as it is an upper division course.  I was to talk on breastfeeding
(of course).  I can't tell you what a wonderful time I had!  There are
probably 60 students in the class, 25 men, 35 women or thereabouts.  These
are not health professionals, but many of them will end up going out on the
mission field, many to developing countries.  So my talk was titled:
"Breastfeeding:  Not just a lifestyle choice." and I had 5 main points --
Breastfeeding:  A Public Health Issue, a Nutrition Issue, a Medical Issue, a
Financial Issue, and a Personal Issue.  Loads of questions afterwards from
both the guys and the girls -- and then during the break, lots more
questions.  It was terrific.  I hope I'm asked back.

I think it beats talking to high school kids any day.  They aren't so
giggly....it was even better than when I had to lecture to Peds residents.
They weren't so giggly....

Jan -- feeling really good tonight in Wheaton
