food. |

The students participated through an
online discussion board in the course running in
Ucompass Educator, our Judson CMS, to
coordinate selecting recipes, shopping, and preparing and serving the items at
the dinner. Caroline Rankin served as chairman, responsible for the overall
planning, and assisted the other students in selecting nutritious, low-fat,
low-calorie recipes. She was also responsible for preparing for and hosting the
event . |
