3 CreditsFreshman SeminarIntellectual Community
In this course we will review how the digestive system works, and how nutrients are taken up from food by our bodies. We will discuss fast and slow food, diets, bugs and poop. We will run some fact-checking to popular internet claims and guide you on how to distinguish well-supported information from bogus. You will also learn to search and read scientific papers and the basics of technical writing in the field.
