Introduction
As a group we looked at the idea of nutritional health in
college students. We decided to
interview two Rowan University students about how they viewed their
nutritional
health. The second student interviewed was a Junior who
lived on campus who believed that while she was not an
overly
nutritious eater, she was nutritionally healthier than most students at
Rowan. In
this discourse between Lindsey and interviewer Laura, Lindsey reveals
her
thoughts on nutritional health, and how Rowan deals with the nutritional
health
needs of its students.

Afterword
Lindsey believes that Rowan is attempting to provide healthier food options but isn't doing a very good job. After this interview, a pattern emerged, showing that students do not lead nutritionally healthy lives because Rowan University is not doing its best to help students change their poor eating habits. The food options that are offered on campus are not as healthy as they appear to be and some university rules that aren't directly related to food in fact have a negative effect on students' eating habits. My cowriters and I might look into possible ways that Rowan could improve their food options.
