The Center for Study of
Economics of Aging and Health held two forums that were well-received and
well-attended by students and faculty. The October forum addressed the timely issue of adolescent at-risk behavior. Presenters informed students of the impact of peer pressure on at-risk behavior (particularly sexual behavior) among college students. In November, the Center organized a panel discussion on aging, retirement and social security and how these relate to college students. After the panel discussion, the floor was opened for questions. Students wanted to know if Social Security was going to run out and wanted advice on planning for their retirement. More than 100 students and faculty from Gerontology, Finance and Economics attended the forum. “Through these forums we hope to raise awareness of the economics of health, promote courses related to this topic and generate dialog across disciplines,” said Davina Ling, director of the Center. source: http://business.fullerton.edu/Community/cbeconnections/CBE_Mag_Spring07WEB.pdf |
