The Latin American Studies Program is host- ing a number of events for all students and faculty to come and celebrate His panic Heritage Month. which focuses growing Hispanic communities. With the population of Hispanic students slowly climbing from 158 in 1995 to 183 this fall, Hispanic Heritage Month has be- come a slightly more celebrated time. The festivities will oc- cur Sept. 15 to Oct. 15. Hispanic Heritage Month recognizes the vast impact Hispanics have had on North American cul- ture. said Noemi Lugo. di- rector of the Latin Ameri- can Studies Program. “There has always been a heritage here. but not everyone acknowl- edges the history." she said. The event has been celebrated on campus for more than 10 years. “For me. Hispanic Heritage Month is every- day.“ said Lugo. The Latin American Studies Program at the University of Kentucky is presenting its semi-annu- al Film Series. which will include: October T-November 4: Art works by Latino Students.

Eating disorders in males often go unmentioned, unreported Health: One million males reported to have eating disorders B_y Matthew Towner CO_NYRIBUTING WRITER It's a common and often ignored scenario: The young student. once full of confi» dence. is reduced to a shell of his former self. He worries about looking attractive and is no longer happy in school. The images of grandeur that spurred his ego are giving way to self-loathing and feel- ings of sadness. If this student is like many others. he has a distort» ed body image and severe is» sues with food. Eating disorders. whether formally diagnosed or not. are a fact of campus life. Despite what some col- lege textbooks may preach. eating disorders can just as easily affect male students as female students. said Mary Bolin-Reece, director of the UK Counseling and Testing Center. “i believe it is important that students and others are aware that disordered eating and body image concerns are not limited to females." she said. One million men have eating disorders. according to the National Association of Anorexia Nervosa and Assov ciated Disorders. The association reports 86 percent of affected men report the onset of the disor- derby the age of no.

A lower prevalence of eating disorders in males is partially to blame for this trend. but isn't the only fac- tor cotniiig into play. Stephenson said. “Eating disorders tend to be kind of nondescript in males." she said. “Yet males still have the same problems with food that women do." in her classes.
